I\u2019m gonna give some specific shout-outs to my outstanding frolleagues Lin Clark, Jen Simmons, Mike Hoye, Andrew Losowksi, Emma Erwin, Tantek \u00c7elik, Larissa Shapiro, Jessica Margolin, and Katharina Borschet for their inspiration, support and very hard work to make the web somewhere safe, empowering, and accessible to all.

I have been exploring, in a humbling journey, the depth of my long-held disagreement with a great friend and mentor that \u201cleaders make the future.\u201d I\u2019ve concluded that indeed, they don\u2019t, and that can be amazing. Along the way I discovered what it would take me to help build the kind of foresight capability I think this unique entity deserves, and it put me right back where I started.

Because otherwise, how will all of you know why I fight for the futures I do, in the ways that I do? How can you trust me?</p>\n\n\n\n<p>First I need to trust myself, and that has been a quality I\u2019ve struggled with for most of my life.  </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I refuse to let another year of my life pass with this fear in it.  It ends now.  </strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve so many things that have been on my mind.
