I have been asked a few times to share in public some of the lessons and perspectives from my life story. I hope you find them useful.

My TEDx talk: Questions to Live By

• In the spirit of a seeker and lifelong learner, I shared a few questions that have accompanied me through the days. I hope it sparks something in you too.

• I talked about what I’ve learned from the work of Peter Drucker, especially in managing my life and work. There is also a short interview about the motivation for the talk.

 

What Contact Improvisation is teaching me about openness & freedom

• Interview on Vietnam Rising

 

A few other presentations

The Greatest Greed of all: Time – Story from the Stage – WBUR (7′)

• A short story on how my time was stolen by a time-saving app. I hope it reveals something about our perverse relationship with time in addition to my strange addiction.

Stay Empty, Stay Curious – CreativeMorning Hanoi (20′)

• A story about my unexpected return to Hanoi, where I wonder on what it looks like to be curious about oneself. My current definition of curiosity: the pursuit of Joy in the unknown.

Additionally,

• A presentation and reflection at the end of my beautiful 4 year of undergrad at Tufts. Failures along the way, lesson learned, and words of wisdom.

• A panel at Drucker Forum 2015 when I shared about managing myself in the digital age.

• A story told at The Moth in Boston, May 2017 🙂 Breakfast: Love and Trap. I accidentally won that story slam!

Cheers,

Khuyen
