One Story at a Time – Linda Carroll
Linda Carroll, MS, has been the owner and director of Northwest Seminars & Consulting (NWSC) since 1986. Based in Corvallis, Oregon, NWSC is an organization dedicated to empowering individuals, couples, and families through education. Linda is best known as the author of three books on personal growth, and she is also a prolific public speaker on the topics of love, communication, and the importance of understanding our impact on the world. Linda earned a master’s degree in counseling from Oregon State University in 1980. She has been an active therapist since 1981, specializing in couples and communication, She has served as a faculty member at local colleges, speaks regularly on podcasts and in interviews all over the country, and is a frequent presenter and staff member at Rancho La Puerta in Tecate, Mexico. Linda grew up in San Francisco during the 1950s and came of age during the countercultural 1960s. From her more traditional childhood, she preserves a faith in the importance of service, mystery, and reverence for all forms of life. From her early flower-child leanings, she gained a belief in looking “outside the box” for approaches to individual healing and solutions to world problems. Overwhelmed with the magnitude of suffering in border communities, she struggled to find ways she could make a difference. Linda was then particularly moved by a homeless migrant family she met while accompanying singer Peter Yarrow at an April 2019 concert for migrants in Tijuana. She helped this family navigate the system to find resources, hope, and a way forward. Those experiences made her realize that, although it may seem impossible for one person to change the system, she really could make a difference – one story at a time. This empowering idea gave birth to the foundation.

Jack London's Legacy of Disruptive Innovations - The Original Millennial - George Arabian
George Arabian has been involved at the senior management level with companies that have brought new technology innovation to the market in the Silicon Valley technology sector over the last 30 years. He is currently leading sales for a global firm servicing Fortune 500 companies with Artificial Intelligence, Analytics and Data Science solutions. George has also been active as an investor in early stage technology start-ups and as an advisor and mentor to the younger generation of innovators, the "Millennials" via the "Silicon Valley Technology Hub" he is part of. He has witnessed first-hand what disruptive innovation can mean to a company (having gone through three IPOs and two exits as part of management teams), the market and also what a difference it can make to society, having participated in the Internet since the beginning. George is a member of the Jack London Park Partner's Advisory Board and in his talk he will provide a unique set of insights around how Jack London established 100 plus years ago the foundation for the "Disruptive Innovations" that have unfolded over the last thirty (30+) years. His talk will focus on Jack London's mindset, determination, and as importantly, the innovations he pioneered across a wide range of areas including of course his writings. George's premise is that Jack established the foundation for the innovations of what has and continues to unfold over the last 30 plus years, especially with what is associated with "the Millennial Generation", which is the genesis for the title of the talk, "Jack London's Legacy of Disruptive Innovations - the Original Millennial". The Jack London story has been lost in George's view to the current generation but has never been more relevant to them - he will provide both the context in today's frame of reference that both inspires and also makes a point that, "if one does not understand the history and story of those that came before us you lose some of the most valuable lessons that can and will impact the future". Specifically, Jack's legacy and its connection to today’s technology sector and to the millennial generation has not been widely told nor publicized.
