Get your tickets before they’re gone ($35 each)! At the height of his career at the age of 50, author, Harvard professor, and @TheAtlantic’s happiness columnist Arthur C. Brooks embarked on a seven-year exploration to discover how to transform his future from one of disappointment over waning abilities into an opportunity for progress. This inspiring talk on July 18, “Finding Success, Happiness, and Deep Purpose in the Second Half of Life,” is the fruit of that extraordinary quest. Tickets available at the link in bio.
Brooks will also be joining us for a panel discussion, “Will American Democracy Survive, on July 18—pre-register to livestream the event at svwc.com/livestream.
There are rare voices that somehow penetrate the noise of the world. They rise up and through it, carrying the rest of us with them. One of those voices belongs to the Vietnamese American novelist and poet Ocean Vuong, whose new poetry collection "Time is a Mother" is transfixing readers everywhere. We can't wait for him to join us (and transfix us) this July during #SVWC2022!
