What if your weirdness was the key to changing everything?

Many of us learn at a young age that it’s not okay to “color outside the lines” or be different. CJ makes the case for harnessing your weirdness, embracing chaos, and shows us that doing so can lead to magical things. You’ll hear some vivid stories, be challenged to consider why Santa Claus isn’t actually a very nice guy, and learn why your work’s value is independent of whether other people think it’s any good.
