Rewrite your story | Loveleen Brenna | TEDxArendal

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Twenty years ago, Loveleen was living a life which was based on something else than her own values. She thought: “If I can not be true to myself, how can I be true to my sons and other people in my life, today or in the future?” She took steps and started to rewrite her story. Ending an arranged marriage, and taking charge of her own life - The story she tells today is quite a different one than it might have been. In this talk she focuses on peoples tendency to focus on the differences between cultures, as opposed to all the similarities.

Previous president of The National parents committee for primary and secondary school in Norway, and today a managing director of Seema AS, working with leadership development programs. Loveleen has functioned as an advisor and been on several different comittees for change, integration and education.

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)
