Living and Leading with my Whole Self

We live in a world that forces us, implicitly and explicitly, to adhere closely to established norms and ways of being.  As someone with two minority identities, and as a rule follower by nature, Justin Rosen Smolen has been surprised to discover (over and over again) that his moments of greatest clarity, strength, and connection have come from embracing the parts of his story that can make him feel like an outsider.  

In this talk, Justin is excited to share about his experience stepping into his story and his leadership as a gay Jewish man, queer parent, and optimist trying to make sense of, and contribute to repairing, our beautiful and fractured world.

8:30-8:40 a.m. - E-meet & Greet
