Change your community, but also your world | Sedrik Newbern | TEDxYouth@LakeVilla

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. "My son believes he can be a dentist during the day, a superhero at night, and on Sundays play NFL football," says Sedrik Newbern. In this talk, hear him encourage youth to not get their dreams snatched and recognize when your cup has a little extra so you can give that extra to someone else.

Sedrik is an author and motivational speaker specializing in purpose-driven personal/professional coaching. He recently authored a book entitled Unconditional Forgiveness, Lessons On Letting Go To Build Better Relationships. It touches on his perspective of the impact growing up without his father had on his life.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event 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)
