Ampersand Manifesto Season 2 Trailer

Ampersand Manifesto Season 2 Trailer

In Season 2, Ampersand Jessica Wan, leadership coach & classical singer, interviews people who, similarly, have led "double lives" for decades and succeed in two completely different worlds. This show explores how their two worlds – different as they may seem – collide, integrate, and fuel each other. Jessica's goal is to celebrate, elevate, and normalize these stories. Through these interviews, the goal is to co-create the Ampersand Manifesto, principles for leading our multi-passionate lives.

This season she talks with a range of folks who have written books, given talks and workshops worldwide, and invented new ways of connecting the world. Get ready to meet Ampersands who straddle worlds like entomology & journalism, dance & science, artificial intelligence & piano, and photography, opera, & cheese! And that's just the beginning...

Hello.
Hello.

2
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:05,700
We are so excited to be
launching season 2 of the

3
00:00:05,700 --> 00:00:09,100
Ampersand Manifesto.
Starting this month.

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,700
If you're brand-new to the show,
here's a primer.

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:18,500
I'm Jessica one and I'm an
ampersand a leadership coach and

6
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:22,700
classical singer.
I've had this duality in me my

7
00:00:22,700 --> 00:00:28,000
entire life on the show.
I interview people who similarly

8
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,299
have lead double lives.
For decades and succeed in two

9
00:00:32,299 --> 00:00:36,400
completely different worlds.
We explore how their two worlds,

10
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:41,400
different as they may seem
Collide integrate and fuel each

11
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,000
other.
My goal is to celebrate Elevate

12
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:49,200
and normalize these stories and
through these interviews work

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,100
co-creating.
Our own Manifesto principles for

14
00:00:53,100 --> 00:00:55,800
leading our multi passionate
lines.

15
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,500
Finally, I get to Think about
how a I especially with the

16
00:01:03,500 --> 00:01:08,700
recent advances and generative
Ai and generative models, how

17
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:12,700
you can actually have a program
that learns to generate music.

18
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,200
In season one, we heard stories
from amazing people doing

19
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,100
incredible, things straddling
and connecting two worlds,

20
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,500
architecture music tech,
startups and theater, big

21
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:29,700
business and fiction writing
just to name a few.

22
00:01:30,700 --> 00:01:34,400
If you've been with us a while,
here's what to expect from

23
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,700
season two.
We're going to continue to ask

24
00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:42,200
this question, what fuels a
multi passionate life.

25
00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:46,000
And we'll talk with a range of
folks who have written books,

26
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,100
given talks and workshops
worldwide and invented.

27
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:54,200
New ways of connecting the
world, get ready to meet a

28
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,000
Sands, who struggle worlds, like
entomology and journalism,

29
00:01:58,300 --> 00:02:02,400
Dancin science, artificial
intelligence, and piano and

30
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,200
photography Opera and cheese.
Yes, cheese.

31
00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:12,400
And that is just the beginning.
I think is creatives, especially

32
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:17,300
for those of us who have tried
to or who have built great of

33
00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:19,900
careers.
We're kind of like the original

34
00:02:19,900 --> 00:02:24,000
entrepreneurs, there's no
template for what we do.

39
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,900
If these red, we're trying to
find new ways to be hopeful, I

40
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:48,600
would say and I think there's a
library provides this

41
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:53,300
alternative Narrative of seeing
what's around us and perhaps

42
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:56,200
rediscovering hoping in, Certain
aspects.
