Angela Duckworth with Bill Hite — Success Without Burnout

Town Hall Seattle presents Angela Duckworth with Bill Hite — Success Without Burnout. Official date/time: Friday, September 11, 2026, 7:30 pm PDT. In-person in The Great Hall, 1119 Eighth Avenue (enter on Eighth Avenue), Seattle, 98101, United States. Cost: $10–$35 + optional book add-on. From the official page: Success is a word that will be defined differently depending on who you ask, but achieving “success” in one way or another is a common framework through which we define our worth. Duckworth explores this in her new book, Situated: Find the People and Places that Bring Out Your Best. In Grit, she showed that a common denominator of successful individuals is the combination of passion and perseverance. In Situated, she looks outward at environmental factors — peers, mentors, and even zip code — that support reaching goals. Angela Duckworth, PhD, is a psychologist, a MacArthur Fellow, and the Rosa Lee and Egbert Chang Professor at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Bill Hite is President of the Bezos Family Foundation.
