Join Joe Cavanaugh for a discussion on embracing curiosity, character, and leadership to create a better future in uncertain times.
About this Event

In times of risk and change, we often seek comfort, and nothing feels more reassuring than certainty. Yet, certainty can leave us vulnerable. Today, we see the effects of unchecked certainty in society: polarization, volatility, and regression, where extreme voices dominate public discourse. We are on a dangerous path — but this does not have to be our destiny.


Now is the time for the quiet majority to spark a new conversation rooted not in certainty, but in curiosity and character.


Join Joe Cavanaugh, Founder and CEO of Youth Frontiers and Head of Leadership Frontiers, for an engaging discussion on the state of our community and what each of us can do to course-correct toward a better future — if we have the courage to embrace discomfort.
