Have a compelling vision that is solution based that can get you to some level of scale [...]. Start where you are, start where your vision is, make it compelling, and enlist as many people who have the same vision as you and make sure it's not about you [...]. I need you to fund this vision because we all can do this work together.

You don't have to be a billionaire, you don't have to be a politician to have an impact in your community, your state, or even the world. If that guy who was addicted to crack cocaine and homeless and in and out of prison and jail, could be one of the 100 most influential people in the world, then what does that say about me [...]? We could shed all of those negative stereotypes. We could set all those things that try to make us think that we're less than or we're limited in what we can do.
I really enjoyed the Narrative Summit. It was so useful for a communications professional like myself who is thinking about asset framing, racial equity and systems change daily. I hope there's another one down the road!
