2. My Year of Saying Yes to Everything, by Shonda Rhymes
Shonda Rhimes is the powerhouse writer and producer behind some of TV's most popular shows like Grey's Anatomy, Scandal and How to Get Away With Murder. Responsible for producing over 70 hours of television per season, she loves to work. "When I am hard at work, when I am deep in it, there is no other feeling," confesses Rhimes.

In her moving TED Talk, Rhimes takes us on a journey through a "Year of Yes" of how she got her hum back.

In this interview with Mia Birdsong, BLM's founders share their thoughts about leadership, hope and inspiration despite painful realities. They then advice us on ways to partake in the movement, so that freedom is granted to everyone. They advocate for us to "join something, start something and 'sharpen each other, so that we all can rise.'"

In this short, energizing talk, the founding principal of Mott Hall Bridges Academy (and a star of Humans of New York) shares how she helps her scholars envision a brighter future for themselves and their families.
