Dr. Peterson’s work explores the modern world by uniquely combining the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning revelations of cutting-edge science. At this event, he will do so by examining how to overcome life’s biggest obstacles, discussing how best to improve oneself and society, and exploring the meaning of life. A fascinating speaker whose expertise spans the social sciences, the humanities, mythology, theology, and more, Dr. Peterson is widely recognized for his unrivaled combination of wisdom, verve, and wit. This special evening is an event not to be missed!
