Since the beginning of humankind, we have not been afraid to ask the big questions, such as, "Why are we here?", "How did we get here?" and "Where did all of this come from?" We have searched for meaning, purpose, and comfort by connecting with this higher force through faith practices and rituals.
While countless sages have presented different pathways, a few have shown unconventional ways. One of them was Carl Sagan—an astronomer, planetary scientist, and science communicator, who masterfully blended cosmology with philosophy.
A pioneer in space exploration and the search for extraterrestrial life, Sagan believed that exploring the cosmos expands our understanding and inspires future generations to push the boundaries of human knowledge.
He played a pivotal role in making the study of the stars popular and mainstream. His most significant contribution was the TV series Cosmos. In the documentary series, he compellingly broke down complicated topics in astronomy, drawing in millions of viewers and opening their minds to a world of infinite possibilities.
To discuss Carl Sagan's achievements and his musings on science and faith, I invited Stephanie Roth Sission. Stephanie is an award-winning author and artist who has illustrated many books for children, including the Princess Posey chapter book series. After illustrating over 60 books and various magazine pieces, she began writing her own books. Her author-illustrator debut, Star Stuff, earned multiple starred reviews and was named an Orbis Pictus Honor Book.

No one is an island. Even though we need to occasionally step away to engage in our solo pursuits, we still need a place that we can come home to. Having roots makes us feel like we are part of a community and are not alone on our quest. That’s why connecting with others is a fundamental need we must fulfill to thrive.
One person who exemplifies the importance of community and being connected to the world around us is ethologist and conservationist Dr. Jane Goodall.
From her decades of learning and observing chimpanzees in their natural habitat to her more recent years spent educating and building awareness about conservation and solidarity, she’s been guided by a deep spiritual and moral conviction to reveal the common thread that connects us all.
Jane reminds us that we are connected and we are all vital parts of a beautiful whole. When our head and heart work in harmony, we can deeply understand all living creatures, including our fellow humans.

We are multidimensional beings, capable of molding our character at any stage in our life. Our identity is fluid and malleable, and we can continue to evolve and enhance it to realize our highest potential.
Viktor Frankl had to learn how to master this, having lived in most of the 20th century, one of the more transformative periods in world history.
This Austrian psychiatrist and neurologist is most known for being a Holocaust survivor, but in reality, his contributions to mental health and psychology are his true legacy.
His seminal book, "Man's Search for Meaning," and logotherapy, a psychological approach centered on meaning creation, is rooted in his observations at the concentration camps, where he witnessed unthinkable cruelty and injustice.
Frankl prioritized guiding people to find their deeper purpose in good and bad times. In the process, he discovered himself and crystallized his mission.
To glean wisdom from Frankl's incredible life and work, I invited Alex Pattakos, Ph.D., affectionately nicknamed "Dr. Meaning." Alex is the co-founder of the Global Meaning Institute and co-creator of MEANINGology® —the study and practice of meaning in life, work, and society.
A prolific author, he has written two international best-selling books on the human quest for meaning: The OPA! Way', inspired by Greek philosophy, mythology, and culture, and 'Prisoners of Our Thoughts', written at the personal urging of Viktor Frankl himself.
