A beautifully articulate and thoughtful woman. I will be thinking hard about what matters and why.

Brilliant woman, whom I followed on Twitter, but until now had no idea who she really was. Now I just need a guide in managing the hours (days?) of time I want to spend reading Maria's curated content!

Love love loved it! I've missed about a years worth of Design Matters, shamefully, as I've been fighting to turn my education into knowledge in the corporate playing field, and what better way to start back in on it, than hearing the magnificent Maria Popova speak about her amazing self.

Thanks for the great questions as always Debbie,
and thanks for Brain Pickings Maria, which has gives me chills with inspiration on a daily basis.
