Reshma Saujani with Stephanie Ruhle: Brave, Not Perfect

Feb 05, 2019

Teach girls bravery, not perfection. That’s the sound advice of Reshma Saujani, whose Girls Who Code nonprofit is working to close the gender gap in technology while teaching girls confidence and bravery through coding.

Join her and hear about the ideas in her new book, Brave, Not Perfect. If you’ve ever passed up an opportunity—a job, a relationship, a personal challenge—for fear you wouldn’t nail it right away or look foolish trying, this is a must-see event. Saujani’s inspiring message shows us how to break free from the trap of perfection and rewire ourselves for bravery—and how by being brave, not perfect, we can all become the authors of our biggest, boldest, and most joyful life.
