Now in its fourth decade of confronting real-life hostilities among high-school youth, Challenge Day is enjoying newfound notoriety as the subject of MTV’s groundbreaking hit series If You Really Knew Me. Dedicated to creating environments where young adults feel safe, loved and celebrated, the Dutra-St. Johns will invite teen and adult attendees to lead by example, examine their personal philosophies and expose their own misgivings to help them ‘cross the line’ into a new way of thinking.
The conference will also include ‘Designing Your Vision for the World’ led by C.A.S.T. (Conscious Action Starts Today) creator Joseph Jacques and Anchor the Dream founder Laura Fox. The workshop fosters the identification of an individual’s mission and goals using filmmaking as a metaphor for living and executing a compelling story while acting as a seminal character in the stories and visions of others. The most compelling visions will earn an extended mentorship and guidance from Leaders Causing Leaders key speakers.
Other speaker and panelist additions to the program include acclaimed executive and lifestyle coach Debbie Robins; former president of the Institute of Noetic Sciences James O’Dea; Café Gratitude founders and abundant lifestyle experts Matthew and Terces Engelhart; leadership expert Lance Secretan; music video director and community technology advocate Jeffrey Abelson; and Elevate Films and Film Festival founder Mikki Willis.
