If creativity had face and determination had a name and if Tedex needed a perfect spark of energy. Here is he Arian ready to inspire and impress. When I was a kid, some people used to tell me, "You're too young to understand or you can't do that." Whenever I heard this word, it felt like someone was putting a wall around me.But then I realized something important. Every boundaries are not always real. Sometimes they exist only in someone else's mind or even in our own.And the best things are boundaries, we ...

[Music] Thank you. Thank you. And uh a very good afternoon to all of you.Voices of change. I'm going to speak about boundaries not balance. How to integrate work and life without burning out.And that's going to be the voice of change that I'm going to speak about by seeing how AI can come into this and make this happen. It's about work life balance. We are all aware that there are great industry stalwarts who spoke about the number of hours that is expected from the workforce and then happened a lot of deba ...

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Can I work from home. How many mental health days do I get. I don't want to work until I'm 40.Gen Z. Ain't they delusional. That's what the corporates, the media, and some LinkedIn gurus would have you believe.Whereas I I wish I was Gen Z. That may sound a bit strange, but hear me out. I wish I was Gen Z because they're born in a generation where impossible has become nothing.Where the words can't have no power and where traditional limitations are seen as polite sugges ...

[Music] [Music] Away and good evening everyone. Welcome to an unapologetically selfish and guilt-free talk on the power of boundaries. Now, I can almost see a few of you shifting in your seats and cringing at the word selfish, but let's just take a pause for a second and reframe that.One of my favorite quotes comes from the iconic Koko Chanel who once said, "One of the most courageous acts in life is to think for yourself aloud." In a lot of societies, this bold self assertion, especially for women, is very ...

on behalf of Ayan. Uh firstly I won't take up much time but thank you so much Flora for inviting me here. Thank you all of you for having me here as well.Um this was a very difficult presentation for me to put together because I don't think about these things very often. My work I'm an architect. I work with identity. I work with culture and heritage architectural heritage sites across the country.I moved back from being in various different places in the world. Um 20 years of being away. I moved back in 20 ...

[Music] Raise your hand if you have ever been called selfish before. Keep your hand up if you think being called selfish is a bad thing. I used to think the exact same way.We've all been raised since we were young. Being selfish is one of the worst things you can be. Put other people first. What will other people think.And what's interesting is there was no limit to selflessness. The more you give, the more selfless you are, the better of a person you are. The law of diminishing returns does not exist when ...

[Music] A few years ago, I had this friend. You know, the kind of someone you in click instantly click with. You'd laugh together, share everything, and nothing feel off limits.We got really close really fast. It was the kind of friendship people search for. But over time, things started to change.She started making little jokes at my expense, calling me dumb, but always in a playful way, she said. I didn't like it, but instead of speaking up, I stayed quiet. I brushed it off and told myself it wasn't a big ...

It is interesting how difficult it seems for us to give an answer to one question. What does freedom mean to you. Is it feeling truly free, exuberant and almost like falling in love and filled with all the joy and happiness and or is it simply living without boundaries.Sometimes what seems to be obvious isn't actually true. So what does freedom mean. And which role do boundaries have in it.And what if freedom and boundaries aren't the opposites instead playing together making the other more meaningful. For ...
