Journeys - Stories of Aha! Moments
Each of us who works to change the world is on a journey. And each of these journeys begins with a moment of discovery that, in time, becomes a story. "Journeys" is about bringing our stories to life--a special opportunity to hear from the Bay Area's leading change-makers and social entrepreneurs, reliving and retelling their Aha! moments. We'll hear how each was shaped by their discoveries and how those discoveries, in turn, are shaping the world. And along the way, we'll explore how stories work, sip some tea, and share our own journeys.

About Wakingstar
If you want to have an impact on the world, you have to be able to tell your story. Best told, that story will reveal where you come from, what you do, and where you're going, in a way that connects you with your audience and inspires them to action. Through story coaching, events, workshops, and core story development, we help you understand how stories work and help you find your own - so you can shape the world.
