Inspired by Nelson Mandela and produced in part by Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, Live to Lead puts the spotlight on seven leaders who’ve dedicated their lives to social justice. New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (in one of her final interviews), political activist Gloria Steinem and more share how they strive to create a better world through peace, equality, compassion and mutual respect.
Live to Lead is available to stream Dec. 31.

Live to Lead features climate change advocate Greta Thunberg, Equal Justice Initiative (EJI) founder Bryan Stevenson, Rugby World Cup champion Siya Kolisi and South African human rights activist Albie Sachs — among others. To read more about the interviewees, check out this guide.
Each episode of the docuseries centers around one global leader who’s relentlessly fought for change. Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, introduce the activists, who are then interviewed about their work, inspirations, hardships and successes. The first episode focuses on lawyer and criminal justice reform activist Bryan Stevenson, who — along with his foundation, EJI — has exonerated countless people of color who’ve faced wrongful convictions or excessive punishment within America’s prison system.
