I want you to think of a period in your life when you failed to live up to someone's expectation. It could be your family member, your friend, or anyone else. Now, I want you to hold this thought and we'll come back to that later.For me, that memory still continues to spin around in my head to this day. My father had a serious addiction to alcohol until he was diagnosed with diabetes. And religion was the only salvation that made him stop.From that day on, it became an integral part of our family. But no ma ...

[Applause] [Music] I left Korea by myself when I was 16 to move to America because I always felt that my opinionated self was too much for Korean people. At 31, I left my marriage because I woke up one day and realized I deserve better. Eventually, I walked away from a highpaying tech job after a decade of successful career at Meta, Netflix, and Tik Tok to start a beauty marketing agency with the goal of making K beauty mainstream in North America.And I just sponsored Tony Awards. Um, I'm also launching an ...

Me presento, si le soy sincera, toda mi vida odié mi nombre, no me gustaba para nada, era una inseguridad.Yo crecí odiando mi nombre porque muchos lo confundían, lo escribían mal, me decían Yuri Bet o cuando decía, "Me llamo Yulibet, ¿cómo?" Y termina en TH. Entonces, no me gustaba con deci ...

[Music] [Applause] What if you've never actually been yourself. Not fully, not truthfully, not out loud. It's not your fault.You've been shaped, smoothed, edited, taught who to be in exchange for love, praise, acceptance, survival. Most of us don't grow up asking, "Who am I?" We grow up learning to be who the world wants us to be. We learn to belong before we learn to be. We learn to perform before we learn to feel.And at some point, we stop asking ourselves, "Is this even me?" We live in a world that rewar ...

When was it when was the last time you read a book. A week ago, two weeks, 3 weeks, a year ago. Or rather, when was the last time you voluntarily read a book and actually enjoyed it.Well, recently, I came across a book that was so breathtakingly amazing that I had the overwhelming urge to share it with someone.

I sat in front of her next to to the TV and started rattling on about the characters, the plot, and how everything wo intricately together to creat ...
