Jen goes solo and declares that y(our) stories hold the power to change humanity. Audacious? Maybe, but our stories matter. Jen shares a chapter from her own life and also expands on the importance of listening deeply to others. She learned big things reading Tarana Burke's recent book including the stories behind the me too. organization and subsequent #metoo movement.
