Behind the Wheel, Beyond the Noise | Seema Sinha | TEDxKunskapsskolan Gurgaon Youth

With honesty, humor, and courage, she explores how whispers of self-belief can cut through the noise of societal expectations, and how something as simple as driving can become a symbol of freedom, empowerment, and resilience. This talk is not about dramatic comebacks but about quiet revolutions — proof that even the smallest steps can ignite lasting change.

She even trains on high-end vehicles like BMWs and SUVs. A former professional at Seagram, Google, and Amazon, Seema left the corporate world to pursue her passion. Her inspiring work has been recognized by the World Bank, UNDP, and FICCI-FLO, and featured across national media, including Business Today and Doordarshan. Crowned Mrs India 2023, Seema holds a master’s in Economics, is a trained Kathak dancer, and a proud mother of three daughters.
