There won't always be a set path to your destination — especially if you're going where no one's gone before. If there was one thread that connected the game changers we talked to this season, it's that they forge their own paths. To push themselves, these leaders build challenges that seem impossible, things no one would ever dream of doing. Then they create strategies and teams to conquer those challenges, one step at a time.

We also talked to some fascinating psychologists, who opened our eyes on the science behind human behavior: how ideas spread, how our actions are perceived, and the power each of us holds to influence our communities.

Not one of the guests on Season 2 claimed to have achieved success alone — each one had people they relied on. Whether it was a community of academics, a professional team, or a supportive family, they surrounded themselves with competence and purpose, everyone pulling towards the same goal.

Finally, all of these amazing guests found ways to appreciate the journey along the way. The challenges they faced were grueling, but the support of their loved ones and the things they learned about themselves made it all worthwhile.

In the final episode of Season 2, we're bringing you conversations that will inspire you to aim high in the coming year and give you direction on how to reach the lofty goals you set.
