- 9:11Gaining Aura By Looking at it | Philippe Okwe | TEDxAga Khan HS Kampala YouthThis witty and insightful talk turns the idea of “aura” the sense of confidence and coolness we project completely on its head. Through humor, storytelling, and a hilariously awkward cafeteria moment, the speaker reveals that constantly “losing aura” might actually be the key to finding true self-assurance. Drawing from psychology, personal reflection, and everyday experiences, Gaining Aura by Losing It challenges the belief that confidence comes from perfection or popularity. Instead, it celebrates authenticity, vulnerability, and the freedom that comes from not caring how others perceive you. A refreshing reminder that real confidence begins the moment you stop trying to look confident.
