How to get over your fear of being seen | Lauren C. Nelson | TEDxNokesville Women
Too often, talented individuals shrink into spaces that were never meant to confine them.
In her talk, Lauren reveals how hesitation rooted in fear can quietly sabotage growth and opportunity. What if the one thing holding you back isn’t what you lack, but your fear of being noticed? She gives you a new perspective on how showing up fully, even in small ways, can lead to powerful transformation.

- 8:45This Is What Democracy Looks Like | Laurel Lee | TEDxTampaWe’re told that America is hopelessly divided—that our politics are broken beyond repair. But Congresswoman and former judge Laurel Lee offers a different perspective: disagreement is how democracy works. In this talk, she explains why debate is essential, not dangerous, and how we can all stay in the conversation. Laurel M. Lee serves in the U.S. House of Representatives and previously served as a judge in Tampa, Florida. A former federal prosecutor and Florida Secretary of State, she brings a deep understanding of the law and a strong commitment to principled leadership. Her work in Congress focuses on national security, public safety, and defending constitutional freedoms. Drawing from her experience on the bench, she believes that disagreement is not a weakness in democracy—but a necessary strength when it’s grounded in respect.

- 7:14How social media hijacks our political perception | Luna Fast & Helin Turhan | TEDxBerlinLuna and Helin discuss how social media fragments our society by polarizing politics. In particular, they explain the echo chamber effect and filter bubbles resulting from algorithms and how these further radicalize opinions. Sensationalist journalism exacerbates the spread of misinformation and extreme political views, while politicians and influencers simultaneously manipulate social media to spread their ideology. Towards the end of their talk, Luna and Helin will offer tactics of critical analysis to protect our society from misinformation and political polarization. Luna Fast and Helin Turhan are both seniors at the Berlin Cosmopolitan School. Growing up in an international environment, they developed a multicultural perspective that sparked their interest in cultural, social, and political issues. Their passion for politics led them to participate in Model United Nations (MUN), where they honed their public speaking skills and deepened their understanding of international relations. After graduation, Helin plans to study business at Hult International Business School in London, while Luna will begin a voluntary social year (FSJ), volunteering at food banks in New York City and supporting a community center on the coast of Ecuador.This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
