One of the best TEDx talks I've seen. Incredible message and so relevant in today's fast-paced society. It's so true that your style is a signal and first impressions are sticky. But the most compelling take away was that people are more than a category & if we don't teach ourselves to to see beyond and wonder beyond, we can miss out on so much education, joy and kindess-tell people who you are before they tell chills. Zayna Rose your authenticity, humor and candidness are contagious. I enjoyed it start to finish. Thank you!

I love the statistics about the 'red sneakers'! Seems to corroborate with the idea of wearing something 'bold or unusual' when at a networking event or speaking engagement.

Since first impressions are made in a split second, there's nothing you can do once you walk out the door and into the world because it's over before it starts. Clothes, makeup, shoes, the mask you put on, you can do something about that beforehand. But the expression on your face, your posture and body language, the imperceptible movements of your eyes, it's too late. By then you've been seen and judged. Some investigators say says it takes even less than two seconds. Online, it's pix and fonts in less than a blink. This is life at no depth, just a razor thin sheen on the surface. That's an observation, not a judgment.
