TEDxDesMoines – The Ultimate Recap

TEDxDesMoines

So you weren’t able to make it to Des Moines’ version of TEDx, eh?

Well, lucky for you (slacker) I was there taking copious notes for everyone else. Below, you’ll find notes for each and every speaker. Some were longer than others (what can I say? Some folks interested me more than others!), but they’re all there. Every last one.
