We are super excited for MozFest starting next week! Here's a preview of the Youth and Futures space with wranglers Aoibheann and her mom Iseult. What is Mozfest? We love this response from Iseult - “there are sessions you'll bring things away in your head, sessions you'll bring things away in your heart, and sessions you'll carry something physical out with you".

We talk with Laura Hilliger, an Open Org ambassador, about characteristics of open organizations, and how she’s looking to help them change the world.

When we first started the podcast, we always intended to highlight the books that we love and that make us think. You have heard us sprinkling references to them throughout different episodes, but the big moment is finally here: We’re happy to share our first BOOK EPISODE! Insert Ms. Fitz’s happy dance here. Hopefully, this is the first of many. As we acknowledge and celebrate Black History Month in this episode, we are highlighting two books: Subtle Acts of Exclusion by Tiffany Jana and Michael Baran and Black Brother, Black Brother by Jewell Parker Rhodes. Have you read either of these titles? What books are inspiring you this month?
