How Limits Teach Us to Let Go | Javeria Faraz | TEDxIBA
What if the freedom to choose wasn’t the only path to growth? In this thought-provoking talk, Javeria Faraz, challenges the common belief that freedom and success go hand-in-hand. Sharing her journey of launching a business under strict cultural and family constraints, she argues that limitations whether social, structural, or self-imposed can sharpen ambition, fuel creativity, and build resilience. This talk is a call to reframe how we view constraint: not as an obstacle, but as a catalyst. And perhaps the most radical kind of power isn’t in pushing boundaries, but in choosing when to let go. An IBA student and a thriving entrepreneur, Javeria Faraz turned vision into reality by building her own successful business. With multiple accolades to her name, she is a testament to resilience, ambition, and the power of taking bold steps.
