Courtney E. Martin is a recognized author, cultural critic, TED speaker, social activist and weekly columnist for the Webby Award-winning website, On Being. Her work is vulnerable yet powerful, filled with cultural insights and passionate appeals for social change to create a better world. Courtney has said that she writes the books she needs to read. In doing so, she is the literary equivalent of a first responder, lending her voice to some of today’s most urgent issues, bringing context, compassion and a call to action to the conversation. In today's deep and poignant discussion, Courtney explored her two selves: the one who's brave the the one who's afraid. She also shared about her writing process, her convictions about the healing power of community and why she doesn't believe any one person can save the world.
