Digital Nomads: Work with Freedom and Fulfillment | Mikee Reyes | TEDxAteneodeManilaU
In his TEDx talk "Digital Nomads: Work With Freedom and Fulfillment," the UP alumna highlights his initial struggles with traditional employment, including career rejections and dissatisfaction. Mikee’s personal narrative ultimately focuses on his pursuit of self-created ventures, like a clothing brand and becoming a full-time content creator, driven by a desire for ownership and creative fulfillment rather than stability or a typical corporate path. The talk also touches upon the skepticism from family regarding these unconventional careers, which eventually gives way to understanding as the speaker finds success on their own terms. Mikee Reyes is a former basketball player, now a podcaster and social media content creator. After his time playing basketball for the University of the Philippines, Mikee ventured into a variety of professional fields. He is currently the host of Tito Thoughts, where he offers insights on a wide range of topics, including career development, stress management, and sports. In addition to this, he is the founder of Diin, a clothing brand specializing in versatile and minimalist streetwear.
