“Each of our lives creates what is to come. Every time you make a choice, you make the future.” - Brittney Ryan

We are often asked where we see ourselves well into the future. These moments of reflection prompt us to seek out both our own power and the voices that resonate within the global community to which we are intimately connected. Consider how movements arise from purpose; the journey of searching for purpose demands we look beyond ourselves. Now recognize impact and movement-making, and make choices that permit you to build the thrilling, compassionate world you are searching for. ​

TEDxCUNY 2020 will challenge human discomfort with obstacles and instead celebrate the strength that accompanies our curiosity and ability to dream. Dare to treat limits as though they do not exist, do the impossible, and make choices that will create a new landscape on which to build our lives, homes, families, and hopes. Speak the language of possibility, and let there be rediscovery of what the future holds for our shared humanity. Isn't such a future worth searching for? ​
