Let Yourself Live | Gabe Minson | TEDxAkron

Focused on the greatest lesson Gabe Minson has ever learned, Let Yourself Live is a testimony on granting yourself permission to live and be able to embrace who you are - even at your weakest or most vulnerable. Through dynamic stories of internally and externally imposed structures of existence, what it means to seek accomplishment, and how some structures will inevitably fail you, Gabe illustrates how they lit their own ignition to become free inside first, in order to offer their spark to others. Gabe Minson (they/them) is an artist, thinker, fighter, occasional writer and, elementally, an Akronite. Those most significant pieces are the cornerstone to 21 year old Gabe’s life, where they daylight as an administrative assistant (and artist behind the desk). Outside of work, their time is spent having a lot of conversations, serving food at distros, working on community projects, playing overwatch, doing yoga, and creating.They live aspiring towards only one, non-professional, title: being a lifelong learner. Everything else comes from there. 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
