In this talk, Matthew will talk about Micro-Narratives and the nuances within the details. We have all been a part of a group, community, or idea, exchanging our purpose with each other and with intentionality. Small daily stories add up to overall understanding and involvement with others that capture the essence of our interactions with humanity.

These micro-stories that we have and engage with are highly personalized and universal, but surprisingly self-specific. Choices within these narratives speak two languages. One that is our own, and one that is the world's view today. By learning about and contextualizing these micro-narratives, we can integrate macroeconomics within our thinking, solve the pieces of missing puzzles, and implore the curiosity it takes to adopt the world around us. These stories are the philosophical views, identities, and individual choices that comprise life's meaning.
