Us humans fight a lot. You think you're fighting about this, but you're not. Maybe it's toilet paper. Maybe it's dishes. Maybe it's politics. Maybe it's who let the dog on the couch or who's to blame for the entire economy. Small fights, big emotions. We get caught up fighting about all these things when really something much deeper, much older is happening inside us. Every one of us carries two powerful opposing drives. One is the survival drive. Protect yourself. Stay safe. Stay right. Stay alive. The oth ...

Good evening everyone. We carry tomorrow in our bones. I'm here today to speak about the future.But to do that, I need to speak of the past. And it is a past built on bloodshed, oppression, and suffering. I will be speaking about racism, human trafficking, and systemic abuse.Please let this be your trigger warning. I want to take you on a journey. Imagine for a moment the following.You awaken in darkness below deck to the swaying of the ship, the smell of brackish water and human waste. The sound of the wav ...

This is how my story began. Not in a laboratory, not in a boardroom, but with a paintbrush in my hand in a group of children in Zanzibar who had forgotten how to smile. We didn't share a language, but we shared something deeper.The need to heal. As colors began to fill in the room, I saw something extraordinary. Children who had been quiet started to laugh.Tears turned into pictures. and the pain turned into a possibility. And I learned something that day I'll never forget.Healing isn't only about medicine. ...

Every morning before the meetings begin and the phone starts ringing, I ask myself the same question. What can I do today to make my country and the world a little bit better? It's a simple question, but it grounds me in intention rather than routine. I didn't always ask myself that question. Years ago, I began my morning with a different question. How will I get through this day? Deadlines were heavy. Change felt slow. Everything felt urgent. But that day, in a small moment, everything changed. In 2022, du ...

Leaders are not born. They are made in moments. And these moments, I would say, are the tipping points.It's the moment you raise your hand in class when your heart is racing. It's the choice to speak up when no one else will. It's when you say, "I'll take responsibility." But leadership isn't simply about courage.It's also about empathy and character. A leader is the one that looks to make sure no one else gets left behind. They don't seek credit.They're the ones that notice when someone else is struggling ...

[applause] At some point in life, we all become the caregiver. And what I'm sharing with you today is based on lived experience, hard work, and science with only one goal to inspire you and maybe help you look differently at something we think we all understand. That is how we care for others.Today we are facing an epidemic of burnouts in health care, in classrooms, and even in friendships. But what if the key to a truly humane society lies in a common skill, one that could benefit us all. Because the probl ...

[music] [music and applause] So good afternoon friends. As we walk into a doctor's office, we look not only for his competence but also for an open and trusting environment. So a trust is a belief that someone is good and honest and will not cause deception to us.It can also be choosing to make something important to us vulnerable uh to the actions of another person. So it could be our life, heart or any other organ which we are think we are have in consultation with the physician. Humans are emotionally uh ...
