Reinvención: un proceso constante, no un evento único | Gerardo del Villar | TEDxToluca
Con la fuerza de un explorador que ha enfrentado tiburones, orcas y aguas gélidas en el Ártico, Gerardo del Villar nos invita a mirar la vida y el trabajo como una expedición hacia la reinvención. En el escenario de TEDx Toluca, relata experiencias extremas que se convierten en potentes metáforas sobre el miedo, la rutina, la incomodidad y el cambio.Su mensaje es claro: reinventarse no es un evento aislado, sino un proceso constante que requiere valentía, apertura y pasión. A través de “brújulas” prácticas, nos inspira a salir de la rutina, abrirnos a nuevos panoramas, desafiar la zona de confort y perseguir con determinación aquello que enciende nuestra llama interior.Esta charla es una expedición distinta, en la que descubrimos juntos que crecer es la única forma de vivir plenamente. Una invitación a dejar atrás la inercia y abrazar la reinvención como hábito, no como excepción. Gerardo del Villar es un explorador, fotógrafo subacuático y conferencista motivacional mexicano, reconocido por su labor en la conservación marina y su habilidad para inspirar a las personas a enfrentar sus miedos. Originario de la Ciudad de México, ha dedicado su vida a documentar y proteger a los grandes depredadores marinos, especialmente tiburones, promoviendo un cambio en su percepción y su conservación. Ex forcado y expresidente de la Federación Mexicana de Pádel, ha sido el único latinoamericano en interactuar libremente con las 10 especies de tiburones más peligrosas del mundo. Ha colaborado con National Geographic y Discovery Channel, recibido el premio Mentes Quo & Discovery Channel, y es embajador de marcas como Oris y PADI. Con documentales y conferencias, comparte su mensaje: el miedo puede transformarse en motor de crecimiento y superación personal.

- 11:49From Dust to Dream: Passing Hope Through Soccer | Xuanlin Huang | TEDxGCGS YouthWhat if education isn’t only about test scores and rankings, but confidence, possibility, and a way out? In this talk, Thomas Huang shares how a viral video of a primary school team training on a dusty field in Hotan, Xinjiang, led him 2,000+ km across China—and into a mission. He founded the Tiger Project, rallied peers and partners, secured long-term local support, and helped arrange professional club trials for village kids whose dreams once “stopped at the road.” Thomas Huang is the founder of the Tiger Project, a youth-soccer initiative connecting talented students in Xinjiang with resources, funding, and professional club opportunities. An IB student at Guangdong Country Garden School, he combines fieldwork with research on education and social mobility, and has led cross-province trial trips and community programs to help kids turn passion into possibility.
