      I host the Widemindedness with Victoria Ball podcast. I interview leaders in diverse fields about how widening their mind has helped them in their career. My guests discuss carving one’s own path through life, not being afraid to change one's mind and keeping one's mind wide enough to hold multiple, and often contradictory, ideas at once. Widemindedness developed out of Eloquentia, which I founded in 2017 to help young people develop the skills of debating, analysing opinions and respecting others’ points of views.
