The most difficult thing in life | Brianna Lau | TEDxDiscovery College Youth
What if your biggest challenge isn’t the world around you—but the little voice inside your head? In this deeply relatable and moving TEDx talk, the speaker explores the invisible power of our inner voice—the constant thoughts that shape our actions, emotions, and identity. With humour, honesty, and practical advice, this talk shows how self-talk can either lift us up or break us down—and how we can take control of it to live with more confidence, kindness, and clarity. #TEDxYouth #InnerVoice #MentalHealth #SelfTalk #MindsetMatters #Confidence #SelfCompassion #Motivation #StudentVoices #TheLittlePersonInYourHead Did you ever hear voices in your head talking to you? Sometimes, your decisions depend on what your little person inside you brain tells you. Hi, I am Brianna, and I am excited to share with all about my topic on perspectives and how to change your negative conscience thoughts. I would say life is like collecting beautiful rocks, sometimes you need to throw away the "not- so beautiful rocks" or to re-shape them. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

- 11:13The crisis facing American mothers and what we can do about it | Kayla Elderkin | TEDxPacific AvenueNewborns need their mothers — but in America, most women are forced back to work just weeks after giving birth. With no federally mandated paid leave, rising childcare costs, and mounting mental health crises, the system is failing moms and children alike. Kayla Elderkin delivers a raw, personal account of how she escaped the impossible trap so many mothers face — and challenges us to question the cultural norms that call this "normal." Kayla Elderkin is a single mother who refused to choose between raising her children and providing for them. While on maternity leave, she started building a business from scratch—determined to create a life that allowed her to be both present and financially secure. Today, she’s grown a community of over 600,000 across her platforms and is on a mission to help other women do the same: stay home with their babies and still provide boldly.
