About this listen

Pioneering tech executive, philanthropist, bestselling author, and Chair of the National Geographic Society, Jean Case brings a rare blend of vision, optimism, and audacity to every chapter of her life. From her early leap into the startup world at AOL to her decades of social impact with The Case Foundation, leadership in business, and innovation, Jean has built a career defined by courage, curiosity, and a fearless belief in possibility.

The conversation traces Jean’s journey from modest beginnings to the helm of one of the world’s most iconic institutions. She reflects on the risks that shaped her path, the lessons learned from failure, and the importance of creating opportunity for others. Through stories of discovery, philanthropy, and self-disruption, Jean reveals what it means to live boldly — to make big bets, embrace the unknown, and use your platform for good. Whether leading at National Geographic or inspiring the next generation through her book Be Fearless, Jean reminds us that true success isn’t found in comfort — it’s found in courage.
