Wallace’s research reveals that this vital need is often unmet in today’s world, driving burnout, draining purpose, and fueling loneliness. Hear her talk about her life-changing framework for reclaiming meaning and connection, with strategies for strengthening your “mattering core” — at home, in your workplace, in your relationships, and in your community. Wallace says, “Some of my very favorite conversations about mattering have been with my dear friend Ina Garten.” Garten says, “Some of my favorite conversations about ANYTHING are with my dear friend Jennifer Wallace.” Don’t miss this warm and insight-filled conversation between friends on a subject they each care about deeply, and one that will leave you with a blueprint for living a life of greater meaning, fulfillment, and purpose.
