Speaking of Storytelling...

Check out this TED Talk by Kiva.org founder, Jessica Jackley. She speaks about the power of stories to dramatically improve people's lives and, frankly, her own story is quite inspiring...



Pretty good, eh? (here's a link in case the embedded video doesn't work for you)

If you happen to be in the Los Angeles area on March 30th, you can have the opportunity to hear Ms. Jackley (and other people with great ideas) speak live at an after-work event called IdeaMenschLA. Follow the link for more details and bookmark the IdeaMensch website which is a platform for interviews with inspiring people. I plan to be there.

Hooray for Jessica! So very inspiring! Bless her heart. Like the audience, if I had been there I'd have given her a standing ovation too.
