Description

Join us for a deeply candid and powerful conversation with journalist, author, and activist Maria Shriver. Maria opens up like never before, discussing the complexities of growing up in the Kennedy dynasty and how the family value of "service" outweighed "privilege." She reveals the difficult, highly competitive dynamic she shared with her own mother, calling it the "most complicated relationship" in her life. More than just a look back, Maria details her powerful mission to end ageism, especially for older women being dismissed in society. At 67, she is determined to live in a "state of possibility," reminding everyone that "It's not over. You can have a new life at any age." This is an essential conversation about finding evolution, overcoming the basic human fear of being alone, and becoming a lifelong "work in progress."
