What if you had to become nothing to become everything? | Ruth Harris | TEDxDoncaster

Ruth Harris takes us on a powerful journey into the world of recovery, ego death, and the quiet revolution of community healing.Through the lens of Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous, she shows how over two million people worldwide have transformed their lives not through experts or systems, but through shared humanity and radical honesty.Her talk is both vulnerable and disruptive. Ruth invites the audience to imagine what society might look like if we embraced anonymity not as erasure, but as liberation, if we learned to become nothing in order to become everything. It’s a call to re-examine identity, belonging, and the ego’s grip on our lives. Recovering addict turned tech entrepreneur & Mindset coach. I transformed my life and now support others to do the same. Passionate about the power of the very programme that gave me life again, I believe developing this method could change the lives of millions of people. 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
