Going Direct: Cutting Through the Noise to Find What’s Real
In high-stakes environments, the greatest challenge isn’t generating attention, it’s cutting through the noise to find what's real.
Join ACTS 17 Collective for an evening with Lulu Cheng Meservey, founder of Rostra, premier communications strategist and tech executive, moderated by Trae Stephens, cofounder and chairman of Anduril Industries and general partner at Founders Fund.
Lulu and Trae will explore what it means to “go direct,” build culture, communicate with conviction, and maintain authentic trust in a chaotic media landscape. Moving beyond corporate optics, they’ll dive into the deeper questions behind modern success: the exhausting performance of achievement, the cultural crisis of meaning, and what ultimately gives a life substance and direction.
What happens when someone who spends her career thinking about communication, persuasion, trust, and conviction turns those questions toward Christianity? What has Lulu come to believe - and what made her take those claims seriously?
Come for an intellectually rigorous, candid conversation about strategy, culture, technology, and the search for what is true.
Skeptics, seekers, and the unconvinced are especially welcome.
Light bites and drinks will be served.
