In this episode, we have a captivating conversation with Jim Herr on the theme of curiosity. Jim discusses the importance of self-reflection, looking behind the curtain we create, and questioning who we are. He shares his personal journey of self-discovery and how he overcame the fear of being an imposter or not being good enough. Jim highlights the significance of recognizing our own power and, like Spiderman, the responsibility that comes with it. He shares how he found his purpose in leading an initiative for democracy preservation at the Japanese American National Museum and ensuring that no one is left behind. Join us as we explore the beauty and challenges of self-reflection and making room for those who may not agree with us.
