Wow. That's the only word I can think of to describe this year's ImpactPHL Total Impact Summit (https://lnkd.in/ecaV8bSt). I am somewhat of an outlier at the event, which supports impact investors, fund managers, foundation and nonprofit leaders to learn from one another and build community. I attend every year to get to get an annual dose of optimism with integrity from some of the people who control money. This year did not disappoint! In my experience, it's pretty unusual to see an opening plenary to a room full of financial professionals discuss how important it is to be transformed internally in order to change what's happening out in the world. Or, to see a closing panel that challenges everyone in the room to confront their own power and how it can be exploitative. Many of the conversations in between were equally as inspiring, motivating, and hard. Super grateful for the realness of that.
