Really appreciated this talk. It did a great job of holding both feeling and strategy, not shying away from anger, sadness, or hope, but also not getting stuck there. The story about your dad filling potholes really stayed with me, such a simple, clear example of what it means to notice harm and just decide to help. I think sometimes we act like caring and action need to be either emotional or analytical, but this reminded me that they can (and should) be both. Spreadsheets and systems can be powerful tools because we care, not instead of it. Thanks for naming that so clearly!
