  • In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
    League X, COO
    From Shanghai to New York, having worked in fashion, tech and nonprofits, Stephany’s strives to create stories that knit together diverse backgrounds together. She is currently the COO and cofounder of League X, a branding agency focuses on empowering Chines brands. She believes that the most resonant and enduring stories are created at the intersection of curiosity and unexpected connections. A writer and traveler by nature, Stephany combines this sense of adventure with her more technical product-oriented background. Stephany has previously worked with Ralph Lauren, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, international nonprofit Covenant House and HTC-backed app Jiepang.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    Some of the comments here are really harsh! I really enjoyed it; not everyone is a professional speaker. Sometimes we have to listen to the story and focus less on the delivery

    Thank you for sharing your journey! Abusive relationships can destroy a person for life. I'm really glad you made it through and that you are doing well and encouraging others to live their best lives.

    for me, a unique approach: one thing is always fair: time, the next year or hour is the same for a
    victim or convict.And the strange thing about time is that you cannot waste the next 3 years in advance! thanks

      I agree with everything she said and felt very motivated. This is exactly what I needed to hear given my difficulty dealing with reinvention in the face of change. But to be fair - we are not all the same. Our varying propensities and emotional habits sometimes compromise our ability to be the courageous and go-getting people we need to be at a specific moment. Choice is very important and it is the catalyst to positive change. But some people don't spend their choices wisely, because of how their inner self has been built to respond to keeping themselves merely going as opposed to boldly improving.

    @907john316 6 лет назад +6

    I respect your opinion it’s is quite beautiful however the only reason you could let go of your identity of being a victim was because it was first acknowledged those 3 years allowed you to properly feel all the emotions that came with the injustice of what was done to you and you would feel completely different if your story would have not been validated by others as what it was an abuse you have reached this healthy place because you were allowed to be the victim

    What about when someone steals your children how can you ever start over

    • @josiecat8080
      @josiecat8080 6 лет назад +2

      What do you mean by stole your children? To give you better advice, you need to be more specific. Starting over is possible. Baby steps. One thing at a time. If you need a friend to help sort things out, ill send my email- just let me know!

      Best wishes to you. It's easy to say you can, but depending on the circumstances, I don't see how you could. But depending on the circumstances, perhaps you can... Are they missing in the world somewhere or are they just not with you? You only get one life.... It's always your choice to use it the way you feel that you should.....

  •  7 лет назад +5

    The message is mauled by the seemingly inauthentic delivery. It's like she's acting how she thinks authentic people act, when she should just drop it and be herself. Not in all cases, but I think I'd have loved this is she'd spoken off the cuff rather than memorized every word and action.

      Fr. Elegwen Ó Maoileoin she’s adorable, smart and bilingual. Her story took courage to tell and her grandmothers life also. It’s not easy speaking in public. I commend her and you should be ashamed for being so critical!

  • @YailsonDonaireOfficial
    @YailsonDonaireOfficial 7 лет назад +23

    🔴Quite frankly, this sound so damn scripted, almost like "Acted", more like an acting monologue , she almost sounds fake, didn't really get anything out of it, I get what she's saying ,my I didn't feel any personal connection , at least not with her. !! #Disappointed
