Amidst all of the uncertainty throughout 2020, Margaret Heffernan shares soothing advice for the future: don’t predict it. Margaret Heffernan has worked in radio and television, run businesses for venture capitalist and production moguls, and published six books. She’s a businesswoman, and she writes about business. But she also writes about life. Margaret explains that people are constantly changing, so we should constantly experiment. She believes that there is no master plan for life or life’s big problems! Margaret also apologizes for the world that her generation has created for today’s young people. She raised her children during 9/11, Brexit, economic crisis, climate change, and now a pandemic. And that sucks for young adults now who have to work to save the world. Margaret’s interview left me feeling strangely comforted. The world is a mess. There are no magic solutions. So it’s totally fine if I don’t know exactly where I am heading in life. I’ll find out along the way.

Ophira Eisenberg is a comedian and storyteller, and she hosts the ever popular NPR word game show, Ask Me Another. We spoke about how difficult it is to not get too caught up in the future, and how it’s all the worse when you have no choice but to adapt to a tumultuous present. We also talked about storytelling, comedy, and being vulnerable on stage without worrying too much about what people will think. Wee all worry about judgement, but I think grappling with that fear is the best way to find your voice. When Ophira was 25, she was living in Vancouver and planting seeds for the future, including performing stand-up for the first time.

Their book of poetry, HoodWitch, was a finalist for the 2020 Lambda Literary Award for Bisexual Poetry, 2019 Julie Suk Award, and the 2019 Balcones Poetry Prize.

The Reverend Dr. Shelley Best wears a million different hats. She’s the pastor of Redeemer AME Zion Church, she has an MA in religious leadership from Hartford Seminary, and an MDiv from Yale University and a doctorate in ministry from Hartford Seminary with a specialization in faith-based community development. She’s a yoga teacher and a visual artist. Best likes to call herself a soulpreneur, and welcomes anyone interested in becoming one too. We recorded our interview during the beforetimes, at the 224, a communal ecospace in Hartford that she founded as part of the conference of churches. When she was 25, Best was A young professional, an active church member, coming into her faith after the struggles she faced growing up. One valuable takeaway from this interview is that Best found her lifeline through a community that she showed up for. In that community she was able to find healing and make connections which inspired her to pursue her soulpreneurial vision.
