Unlocking Growth through the Power of a Kind Mind | Lina Mariam | TEDxScarisbrick
In a world obsessed with optimization and peak performance, we are drowning in the pressure to be our "best selves." But what if this relentless pursuit is the very thing holding us back?With raw honesty, Lina challenges this modern dogma. She invites us into a transformative conversation about the hidden costs of ambition and the quiet power of embracing our human limitations. This talk is not a checklist for productivity, but a compelling case for a different way to live. Lina argues that true clarity and meaning are found not in pushing harder, but in the courageous act of pause, making space to listen to our inner voice and redefine what a "successful" life actually means. Prepare to question the noise and discover the profound strength in stillness. Lina is a global travel entrepreneur and online wellness coach dedicated to creating transformational spaces for women.
She runs international retreats, guiding people through holistic health, empowerment, and trauma healing work. As the founder of several health and conscious living brands, Lina integrates ancient wisdom with modern modalities to support mental clarity, emotional resilience, and physical vitality.Her work centers on self-liberation, inner peace, and community connection, using wellness as a tool for both personal and collective transformation.
