UNBECOME - How to Come Back to the Real You? | Sudha Subedi | TEDxAnkuram Academy Youth
To become who we truly are, we must first let go of who we were told to be. This talk explores the powerful idea of unbecoming - shedding roles, beliefs, and labels that no longer serve us. In a world filled with noise, pressure, and endless expectations, young people are often disconnected from their true selves.This is an invitation to pause, reflect, and ask the deeper questions: Are your dreams really yours? Is your path your own, or are you following a script written by others? Through listening to our truth, learning from our pain, and leading from a place of self-awareness, we can reconnect with who we truly are.Unbecoming is not about doing more, but about removing what is not you - so you can live, lead, and love from a place that is real. A global Life Accountability Mindset coach and transformation expert, Ms. Sudha has empowered individuals in over 100 countries. From coaching CEOs to founding impact-driven ventures, she inspires with her mission to lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose.A trailblazer in youth leadership and mental well-being, she brings passion and perspective shaped by global experience.
