[applause] [applause] Hello everyone. My name is Angelina. I'm truly honored to be here to explore something that touches all of us.How education and technology are shaping the world around us and also shaping who we are becoming. Let me begin with a question we've all heard probably since kindergarten. What do you want to be when you grow up.A doctor, an engineer, an artist, a YouTuber, or [music] something that doesn't even exist yet. We used to answer this question with confidence, listing careers we kne ...

What is one's purpose in life and how does one find it. Well, I think that it is through a concept known as lifelong learning that you can find your passion. Now, at first it seems like a pretty simple term, right.Lifelong learning. Learning that is lifelong. Right.But the thing that I wanted to introduce to you guys today is more than just learning that is lifelong. For many of us, our learning journey was predetermined from the start. Go to school, get good grades, achieve a diploma.The end has retold. Bu ...

[music] Hi everyone. I'm so glad to have the opportunity to talk with you today. Before I begin, I do want to give a small disclaimer because I will be talking about some medical information.I am not a licensed medical professional and if you do have any questions about your own health, I do suggest you talk to your personal practitioner. Um, with that, that was a lovely introduction. I am a student here studying nutrition and dietetics.But this wasn't when I was first introduced to nutrition. Throughout my ...

So, I'm going to have you close your eyes and I'm going to tell you about a patient. She has high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol, high blood sugar, and she's on a growing list of medications to treat these conditions. She's tired during the day because of her sleep apnea at night. And she cannot even walk up a flight of stairs without stopping to rest. Now open your eyes. She's 9 years old. For the first time in history, we are raising a generation of children that have a shorter life expectancy than ...

Imagine [applause] your life was like a ball of wool, soft, colorful, and full of potential, just waiting to be woven into something beautiful. And that's the dream that we have when we imagine having a future family. But what if buried deep inside there's a knot? One that you didn't put there, one that gets formed through early childhood traumas. Sometimes those traumas are things that we would rather forget. But they don't really disappear, do they? They lie hidden and the wool, if you think about it, sta ...

[music] [music] Let me confess at the very outset that the invitation uh for this talk kind of unnerved me. My lady professor friend says are you going to give an uncle an uncle G address to that generation which is apart from you by almost half a century and I thought about it and today I think it's a privilege to address these young minds but let me start by talking about my own dreams uh which started from a grace sandstone building called San Xavier's on the banks of Ganga which is the lifeline of North ...

[applause] I'd like to start by giving you the short form of this talk. You could think of this as the tattooable version. Your beliefs about aging play a major role in what you will experience in late life and how long you will live.This is not new age philosophy. This is not wishful thinking. This is well doumented science out of research laboratories like Stanford, Yale, and many others around the world.This ends up being good news in a certain sense because if we have this information, we can now make i ...

Imagine yourself on a boat out at sea. Suddenly the weather can take a turn for the worst. A strong gale can pick up and fill your boat with dark and ice cold water from the North Atlantic.You not prepared for the shock that comes when your body hits the icy cold water. The more you struggle, the colder you get and the quicker the count starts before you freeze to death. I was born in south of Norway.Growing up we never own a car but we always had a boat. A 25 foot wood beauty that my father converted from ...

I have a confession to make. When I pick up a newspaper, the first thing I do is flip straight to the obituaries. That's right, the obits.It's not because I'm morbid, and it's not because I've been a gerontologist since the field was in its infancy. It's because obituaries are the true highlight reels of our lives. In just a few paragraphs, you see what truly mattered.The passions, the quirks, the loves lost and gained, the impact, the risks taken or not. They're a masterclass in what it takes to live, not ...

[music] [music] He said if you scream there will be consequences. So I survived the only way I knew how in silence. [music] And in that moment, he took away the one thing that made me feel powerful, my voice. [music] At 23, I was sexually assaulted by someone I knew. While this is where my story begins, it's not where [music] it ends. And the voice you're hearing today, it doesn't just belong. It belongs [music] to every survivor who was forced to stay silent, [music] to stay alive. Thank you for sharing th ...
