Keep Your Mind Open | Room To Grow
Season 16
Episode 3
On a road trip through Dallas, high school students Sophia, Sam, and Saba meet a photographer, a medtech CEO, and a lawyer-turned-wind energy pioneer who teach them success isn’t an end goal—it’s an evolving state of being. The team sees that if they put themselves out there, make connections, and keep open minds, they’ll be on the right track—and by taking this trip, they're already miles ahead.
