何者でもない自分を動かす力 | The Power That Moves an Ordinary Self | Ryota Hano | TEDxUTokyoSalon
私たちは、何者かになろうともがきながら生きている。
しかし、本当に自分を動かすのは、計画や打算ではなく、ふとした瞬間に湧き上がる「衝動的な好奇心」なのではないか。杷野稜大氏は、大学を中退し、人生食堂という挑戦者が集う場をつくりながら、自分の心が躍る方へと歩みを進めてきた。他人の評価ではなく、自分の感情に従って生きること。このトークでは、「衝動的な好奇心」が人を突き動かし、やがて「何者か」に変えていく力について語りかける。We live our lives striving to become “someone.”
But what truly moves us is not logic or planning — it’s the impulsive curiosity that stirs deep within us.
After dropping out of university, Ryota Hano created Jinsei Shokudo, a gathering place for young challengers, and began following the path that makes his heart leap.
By trusting emotion over evaluation, he discovered the power of curiosity to shape who we become.
In this talk, he explores how “impulsive curiosity” can transform ordinary people into their true selves. A man driven by a single aspiration: to create a "KidZania for adults." He lives for that dream, believing that what truly matters isn’t an impressive title but a future you can passionately chase after.He organizes spaces where students can talk about life, such as the monthly "Life Café," and has launched numerous projects under the concept of "Creating moments to look forward to in everyday life." His ultimate goal is to bring his vision of an adult KidZania to life.
学生が人生について語り合う空間:月一回開催の「人生食堂」をはじめ、「日常に”待ち遠しい”を作る」をコンセプトに企画を数多く立ち上げる。大人のキッザニアを作ることが夢。 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

- 5:47Grief | Kaya Desai | TEDxTheArdeeSchoolNFCGrief is universal, yet profoundly personal—especially for a child. This talk takes us into the world of an eight-year-old navigating loss, where emotions don’t follow scripts and healing doesn’t look the same as it does for adults. With honesty and tenderness, the speaker explores how children process grief in unique, often surprising ways—through play, imagination, silence, or bursts of expression. I’m positive, bubbly, and full of energy. I love connecting with people and soaking up lively conversations. I’m also always on the lookout for a good book to dive into.
