WOW! #SpeakersLA Subscriber @abiteofgood shared a few good "bites" of her time with our Series last week in #LongBeach.

📣 @abiteofgood: "We’re always looking for fun and interesting things to do locally. Bonus points if those things leave us feeling like we’re part of a community and - wait for it - SMARTER.

Enter @speakersla . Each season of the Distinguished Speaker Series is packed with 6 incredible speakers from all sorts of backgrounds, with all kinds of experiences, and with no shortage of stories and wisdom to share. This season kicked off last night with the incredible Goldie Hawn and includes Dr. Moogega Cooper, Liz Cheney, Dr. Lisa Genova, H.R. McMaster, and Thomas Friedman. We sipped Goldie-inspired cocktails, mingled with old and new friends, and heard all about Goldie’s incredible life as well as the amazing work she has done to help equip children worldwide with the mental fitness they need to lead healthier, happier lives. I can’t think of a better way to have spent an evening. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to rewatch Private Benjamin. See you at the next speaker!!"

👋 We'll see you there, @abiteofgood, look for us waiting for you with a big high five for your excellent video work! In the meantime, we'll be sure to check out some of your yummy-looking recipes to keep us well-fed as we continue through this season. 😉
