TOPICS THAT ENHANCE CARL’S TALK

Choose Yourself to Transform Your World

Carl’s keynote explores the essential yet often overlooked balance between supporting others and honoring your personal path.

“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” Howard Thurman

His blog, The Dance Between Giving and Growing: How Choosing Yourself Strengthens Everything You Love, draws on the wisdom of Howard Thurman. Carl shares a deeply personal reflection on the cost of ignoring one’s own needs for too long. He explores how both supporting others and choosing yourself can coexist by relating to our families and career in a mutually enriching way. You don’t have to choose between being responsible and “come alive”.
