Shownotes
Emmy-award winning journalist and filmmaker Yael Lavie has covered some of the biggest events of our lifetimes, from 9/11 on the ground in New York City, to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Hurricane Katrina, and the Arab Spring. In a funny and emotional talk, she explains why her life path was forever changed by her sister smoking a joint, why she had to twice pull herself away from 'chasing bullets,' and how having kids gave a fearless war reporter more courage than she ever had before.
