Sul palco del TEDxLegnano, Corinna ha danzato con le parole, raccontando la storia di una madre capace di comunicare senza voce, di sorridere anche quando la vita smette di muoversi, di trasformare la fragilità in una forza che non si vede ma si sente. Con eleganza e verità, ci ha mostrato che la bellezza non è assenza di fatica ma è il sorriso che resiste, il gesto leggero che contiene tutto l’amore del mondo. E in quel sorriso, il suo e quello della madre, abbiamo riconosciuto la rivoluzione più silenziosa di tutte: quella di chi sceglie la vita, ogni giorno, anche nel dolore! Amo la creatività in ogni sua forma: i colori, la libertà, i mondi reali e quelli immaginari. Come visual designer, aiuto professionisti e aziende a raccontare la propria essenza attraverso immagini che parlano davvero. Credo nel potere trasformativo della comunicazione visiva e lo condivido con entusiasmo anche nella formazione. Sorrisi autentici, tenacia gentile e positività contagiosa sono la mia firma. Mamma rompiscatole (ma simpatica) e maratoneta testarda, so che ogni sfida ha il suo senso. Il 38°km si supera sempre, quando il cuore guida i passi.

Con tono pacato e profondo, Luca ci ha accompagnati in un viaggio tra musica e assenza di suono, tra la melodia di ”The Sound of Silence” e il frastuono costante delle nostre vite digitali. Ci ha mostrato come il silenzio, oggi quasi bandito dalle nostre abitudini, non sia un vuoto da riempire, ma uno spazio da custodire, un luogo dove si ricompone la concentrazione, si riaccende la creatività e si ritrova l’equilibrio. “Fare il giornalista è ancora una professione fantastica, da interpretare con spirito di servizio.” Ho attraversato il passaggio dall’analogico al digitale, un’evoluzione complessa che ha ampliato le possibilità dell’informazione. Sono nato a Novi Ligure, ho lavorato per La Stampa tra Torino e Milano, poi al Secolo XIX di Genova, e oggi dirigo i quotidiani del gruppo Nem nel Nord Est, con base a Padova. So di essere una persona fortunata: ho avuto in dono una famiglia di cui sono orgoglioso, la possibilità di fare il lavoro che sognavo da ragazzo e, grazie ad esso, di conoscere tanta parte del mondo e tanti personaggi interessantissimi.

In this heartfelt talk, Jeffrey uses a shaken soda bottle as a metaphor for the emotions we hide inside. He shares his struggle after leaving a stable job just before the pandemic, pretending to be fine while silently breaking under pressure. Through his personal story, he introduces a framework called PAUSE: Permission, Acknowledge, Understand, Shift, and Engage, a reminder to pause, acknowledge, understand, shift, and engage with emotions before they escalate. His message is simple yet powerful: what we don’t see within us shapes everything we do, and true strength begins when we dare to face it. Early in his career, Jeffro was part of digital transformation projects that kept missing deadlines. The real issue wasn’t the technology, it was the hesitation and resistance people carried beneath the surface. That discovery drew him into the emotional side of work, where clarity can turn doubt into momentum. Today, he explores what lies behind the visible - the fears, values and motivations that shape how we show up. For him, beneath the surface isn’t just a theme, it’s a lived practice of helping people move with clarity and confidence.
