Stephanie Lepp
When I was in second grade, I had a lunchbox with Bert and Ernie on it. On the lunchbox, Bert was carrying a lunchbox, with Bert and Ernie on it. On that lunchbox, Bert was carrying a lunchbox...and I wondered, how far do the lunchboxes go? Am I in a lunchbox too??
My experience with the infinite lunchbox, as I fondly call it, remains salient. It's my first memory of asking big questions, a favorite pastime that I continue today.
I’m an independent artist working towards our collective liberation. I create media and experiences that hold up a mirror — enabling us to see ourselves more clearly.
Recent works include Where I'm Coming From, an experience designed to build empathy by speaking other people's perspectives in first person, and Moments of Immediate Intimacy, a series of activities fueling rapid connection between strangers. I currently produce Reckonings, a podcast exploring how people shift their political worldviews, overcome bigotry, and make other kinds of transformative change.
My professional experience spans from digital engagement for Lincoln Chafee’s successful independent gubernatorial campaign, to movement entrepreneurship at a McKinsey-fueled boutique consultancy, to evolving an NYC-based morning dance party into a global dance movement. As a Research Affiliate at the Institute for the Future, I'm part of a network of thought leaders and innovators amplifying the Institute's capacity to work at the forefront of new ideas, such as peer-to-peer currency and micro-entrepreneurship.
I live in Monterey with my husband, daughter, and an abundance of otters.
