Have you ever felt a calling from within—a quiet whisper guiding you toward a different direction? Most people ignore it due to fear, practicality, or comfort, only to look back years later with regret. In this talk, the speaker shares his life journey from South Africa to the United States, and eventually to a one-way ticket to Bali. Through his story, he demonstrates that trusting your inner intuition is not recklessness but a necessity for truly living. Intuition acts like a compass—it doesn’t reveal the entire path, but if you have the courage to act, it will always point you to the next step. Let’s learn how to stop burying that inner voice and instead embrace it as the most reliable guide through the noise of the world. 陆希安，小红书博主“陆希安Lucian George”是一名美国人。他一年多前从加州搬到深圳居住，2024年注册了小红书账号，经常在上面分享他在中国的居住见闻。他曾在社交媒体视频中分享自己在中国的就医体验，对比了与美国的不同之处，惊讶于中国医院预约医生的高效以及数字化方式的便捷，还对中国的医疗成本之低表示惊叹。此外，他也会分享在中国的生活体验，如去海底捞就餐时被服务震惊，想给小费却遭拒等经历。他还曾到武汉、光明等地旅行，沉浸式体验当地的吃喝玩乐，并在抖音上发布相关视频。根据他在视频中的介绍，他的专业是生物医学工程。 This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
