The 90-minute conversation will be moderated by Lauren Brill, an Emmy-nominated and AP-award-winning sports journalist who has used her story-telling abilities to start her own business called The Unsealed (https://theunsealed.com/) which "encourages people to see the world through diverse perspectives, creating more compassion and unity among us."
