Being optimistic doesn't come naturally to everyone. Still, as we learn from Mark Twain, Ted Turner, Mr. Rogers, and Nelson Mandela, there are ways to incorporate more positivity into our lives.

Join us for an inspiring conversation with Bill Burke, a former media executive who not only helped bring Ted Turner's vision to life but is now actively fostering optimism at Harvard. He shares invaluable insights on fearless leadership, authentic communication, and the power of focusing on progress over despair. Learn why true optimists are people of action, acknowledging problems but relentlessly working towards solutions. Tune in to hear Bill's personal reflections, including his "Mandela moment," and the enduring lessons he draws from the anti-apartheid icon's life. This episode will challenge you to look beyond the headlines and find the helpers in every situation.
