Hello everyone, I am Claire Murigande and welcome to season three of Narratives of Purpose. After one year and 25 episodes, my journey to amplifying social impact continues to expand.

"The mantra that we found through our travels, but also through talking from people all around the world is that our brains are just not built for this globalised world. We have built a planet we have connected it, we have culturally and politically built this planet that just is totally out of sync with how we grew up and how education system also teaches us how to think about things"

"I've always been passionate about the brain. I've always been passionate about neuropsychology, which is what I first studied. So I think the very first obstacle that we have when we face biases is that we feel guilty and that we feel shame. So the very first step is really understanding how our brain works."

"Our whole vision is to really spark a movement of that unity and shared understanding, which I believe comes through open discourse and open dialogue. I always say to myself, I'm on a mission to unify the world. And it starts with having open discourse and open dialogue with people who are outside your belief bubble, I like to call it."

"Just challenge ourselves and try to see how we can be a better man or a better person, or how I can be maybe something more. And it's tough that, because you know you pick yourself sometimes in contradiction. But let's just keep on doing that, because it can create a change."
