We've all heard that time is our most valuable resource—but what if everything you've been told about it is missing the point? In this thought-provoking TEDx talk, Ryan White challenges conventional ideas about time and purpose, introducing a powerful concept: living multiple lives. Instead of living a single, linear life, we can embrace multiple timelines—committing deeply to different pursuits and identities throughout our lifetime. With stories like that of MLB player-turned-spy Moe Berg, this talk invites you to rethink what it means to live fully—not by multitasking, but by living intentionally, again and again. Life unfolds not in a straight line, but through moments that intersect and redefine who we are. Ryan navigates these moments across multiple domains whether it's in a classroom, a dugout, a barbershop chair, or the unpredictable world of entrepreneurship. Over the past decade, he's crafted his understanding of business not just through textbooks but through real world engagement of teaching the principles of business, mentoring baseball players, and running his own ventures in barbering and real estate. Baseball instilled in him the value of discipline, conversation sharpened his perspective, and travel revealed to him that no single path is enough. In Ryan's world, every role is an opportunity to grow, every skill is a tool to unlock new possibilities, and every connection is a chance to serve. 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
