Season 6 | Episode 13

Jennifer Pace Robinson is the creative force and badass behind The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis -- the largest children’s museum in the world. After nearly 30 years of saying “yes” to bold ideas, she’s now the President & CEO, leading with curiosity, courage, and a whole lot of badassery.

From dinosaurs and princesses to global villages and powerful exhibits like Emmett Till & Mamie Till-Mobley: Let the World See, Jennifer has turned imagination into impact and made learning come alive for millions. Her story proves that curiosity can change the world — and reminds us it’s not just for kids.

"I’m not afraid to step outside my bubble…to travel, try something new, meet someone new, build a relationship that makes something bigger than I could have done happen." - Jennifer Pace Robinson

In this episode, we dig into:
• How Jennifer worked her way from intern to CEO
• The “impossible” projects that actually worked
• What curiosity and creativity teach us about leadership
• How she balances innovation, vulnerability, and joy
