Recharge with Jennifer Wallace and David Ko, CEO of Calm

Jennifer B. Wallace is an award-winning journalist, New York Times bestselling author, and founder of the Mattering Institute, whose mission is to create cultures of “mattering” in schools. Her work centers on the idea that feeling valued and adding value is fundamental to our mental and emotional well-being. She is a “maternal mental health advocate” at Calm, a consultant at Netflix, and frequent media contributor and commentator on issues around parenting, kids, and education. She lives in New York with her husband and 3 kids.

Her new book, Mattering: The Secret to a Life of Deep Connection and Purpose discusses how the sense of “mattering” impacts not only our day-to-day mood and feelings of personal value, but also our overall health, workplaces, and communities.
