We are each leading a life that results in its own unique story. Some of us stumble through this narrative finding intention along the way, while others move with purpose, on a mission to make a difference. That is certainly the case with Pat Mitchell who has long been a cultural force at PBS, CNN and Sundance Institute, while also being the editorial director of TEDWomen, but she only really found her full freedom when she embraced her story and recognized herself as a dangerous woman, which she explores in her memoir Becoming a Dangerous Woman. Harold O’Neal is an exceptional storyteller and musician whose own personal story became the basis for some of the ambitious Pixar film, Soul. Understanding these stories will help us understand our own purpose and how the two are explicitly intertwined.


Speakers: Pat Mitchell, Harold O’Neal, Samara Cohen a.k.a. Princess Lockerooo
