Imagine the if the next person to change the world isn’t a billionaire or a world leader, but a teenager sitting in a classroom, probably not expecting the world to change because of them? By empowering Youth they will become the changemakers of the future. So the system needs to be challenged whereby the voice of youth isn't heard as they are either too young or too inexperienced or whatever other excuse is given to hold them down. Youth need to be given a platform to share their creativity and imagination and be allowed to inistigate change.

Rebuilding doesn’t have to be a lonely road, nor does it have to be a daunting process. It is a bridge we build together, a collective and revolutionary act. Rebuilding can be resting, reconnecting with a passion, or reaching out to someone in your community—these small acts are the foundation of resilience. We should not fear starting from the ground up. Instead, embrace it. Because in the process of rebuilding, of resetting, we discover not only our strength, but also the path to our future.

Why do most runners stop? It’s not their legs - it’s their breath. International breathing expert Patrick McKeown explores the overlooked truth behind endurance and performance: that the feeling of breathlessness - not muscle fatigue - is what causes most runners to quit. But there’s a solution hiding in plain sight: nasal breathing. By shifting from mouth to nasal breathing while running, we retrain dysfunctional breathing patterns, improve CO₂ tolerance, and gain greater control over the breath. This method helps you run longer, recover faster, and perform better - while also improving mental resilience, focus, and recovery. Whether you're a competitive athlete or a weekend jogger, this talk will change the way you breathe, move, think and of course run! Patrick McKeown is a world-renowned breathing expert who has coached Olympic athletes, elite military, musicians like Chris Martin (Coldplay), and corporate professionals to improve focus, sleep, and well-being. His bestselling book The Oxygen Advantage—translated into 16 languages—has sold over 500,000 copies. The Oxygen Advantage® method enhances respiratory efficiency by improving functional breathing and balancing oxygen and CO2 levels. This reduces stress, boosts stamina, improves sleep, and speeds recovery by optimizing oxygen delivery and autonomic balance. A key focus is building CO2 tolerance for better physical and mental performance. With a global network of certified instructors, the method is used worldwide and continues to evolve through Patrick’s research and clinical work.
