In context

When I love something, I become its biggest evangelist. 'You've gotta try bouldering,' I'll insist, 'trust me on this one.' I genuinely believe it'll change someone's whole week, so I say so with full confidence. 'I'm telling you, one session and you'll be hooked.' There's a fine line between sharing a passion and being pushy, but real enthusiasm usually wins people over. What's something you push everyone to try?
