If you were alive in 1999, you remember hearing about The Matrix movie.


And even if you weren't, you've no doubt heard about it since.


It's an incredible film that started a huge movement in media and our culture.


You'll recognize today's guest on The School of Greatness from those movies – yes, the lead female character, Trinity, was played by Carrie-Anne Moss.


Now, whether or not you like the Matrix films, I am very confident you'll love Carrie.


We were just recently introduced and when we started talking, I was immediately impressed with her mindfulness, calm, and fierce heart.


In our conversation, we go deep – into all parts of life including family, motherhood, disconnecting from technology, self-worth, career, and so much more.


I loved talking to Carrie about all of this, and I was especially inspired by how she has gracefully balanced so many big demands of her time and energy through the years.


I can't wait to hear your thoughts about what we talk about, and for you to hear the stories from her acting career, in Episode 329.
