I’m recording this in the final months of 2020. It’s been quite a year. We’ve faced an international pandemic, with hundreds of thousands of souls lost to a relentless illness. We’ve lived through political upheaval and social unrest. We’re faced with the daunting task of battling a deadly virus, mourning loss of loved ones, rebuilding trust and communities, overcoming economic challenges, creating new ways of conducting and growing businesses—and doing it all in ways that allow us to take care of and strengthen each other and refill our own reservoirs of strength and resilience.

How do we do all this?

We have different ways, but I always find learning and sharing ideas and opportunities is a good way to start. Learning. Sharing. People’s stories. History.

Back in 2019, when we jumped on an airplane worrying only about jetlag, I went to England and spent a marvelous couple of weeks immersing myself in history, walking where history comes alive. So please join me as I take you to three spots you might consider a bit off the more familiar path of London, places you can reach easily by train, and opportunities to experience history.

Today we’re going to Winchester.

History shows us what's possible.
