Come and hear author, scientist and speaker Dr. Dragos Bratasanu talk about his new book The Pursuit of Dreams – Claim Your Power, Follow Your Heart and Fulfill Your Destiny. In “The Pursuit of Dreams” Dr. Dragos shares the deeply personal experience of how he accomplished his dreams—including travelling to the North and South Poles without any money or connections—to show how you can reclaim your power and take change over your life by listening to the voice of Truth.
Travel the world with Dr. Dragos, go behind the scenes in Silicon Valley and NASA headquarters, and meet an eclectic cast of characters, including a Buddhist teacher, an Army veteran, a monk from Transylvania, a Google innovator, and a NASA legend. Their fascinating conversations connect science, spirituality, and entrepreneurship to inspire you and empower you to realise your dreams. This will be a storytelling & movie screening evening, as you will have the chance to watch one episode from The Pursuit of Dreams movie series that is not available anywhere online. Books will be available for purchase on the night.
