I decided to clear my closet one day and I made a giant pile of clothes on the floor. Things that didn't fit anymore, pieces that were out of style. And then I realized these weren't just outfits.They were stories. from different chapters of my life. The cute top I twirled in at a music festival with friends.The red dress with my crush. The power blazer from my first day at a dream job. I thought letting go would be simple.I stuffed them into a big bag, put it in my car, and decided to donate them. But six ...

Mom, I was too stressed and I threw up. Dad, I don't know why, but I can't eat anything right now. I've been eating and yet I'm still hungry.I feel a migraine coming on right now. Unfortunately, all of these are experiences that either we've gone through or somebody we know has gone through.

Hi, my name is Ashna Sha and I'm a junior at Valencia High School ...

[Applause] You remember the last time you lost your wallet. You remember the panic that washed over you when you realized that you had no money, no credit cards, and maybe worst of all, you were going to have to go to the DMV to get a new driver's license. I do.I was sitting in seat 1B on flight 394 to Fresno, California on February 4th, 2020, the last time I lost my wallet. I can still remember vividly looking at the bottle of water that I was holding in my hand that I had just bought at the Denver airport ...

[Music] Allow me to introduce you to Pete. Pete is my Tamagotchi. Some of you may remember these. A Tamagotchi is a kind of simple digital pet you can care for. So with Pete, I need to push specific buttons at specific times to feed him and play with him, generally take care of him. And if I do a good job, Pete can have a long and happy life. And if I do a bad job, Pete could die. And honestly, that would make me sad because I care about this simple piece of technology. If I was giving my talk right now and ...

[Music] [Applause] Good afternoon everyone. You are standing right here in this beautiful cute little circle and you look very far away and you see something you really want changed. It can be big. It can be trying to protect the environment. It can be helping child poverty produce, but it can also be something very simple and very personal to you, like finally agreeing on the rules of UNO with your friends. And it's somewhere there. You can see it. You can see it right there at the exit sign. You just have ...
