Trying to solve global issues like a stuffy diplomat? Pffft. Real leaders know ya gotta think outside the box - or at least outside the gilded boardroom. Adapt or get left behind, folks

Storytelling and cultural exchange? Sounds like a feel-good fantasy. Only breeds more misunderstanding and division in this broken world. We're too different to ever truly connect

Hmm, how do dads manage all the things these days? Work, kids, hobbies - it's a lot to juggle! I wonder if they ever get a moment to themselves. What's the secret to keeping it all in balance?
