Ahmed Gaber Sayah Hamed Mohamed
People like to say that positive thinking is a highly overrated ideas when it comes to battling negative emotions. I like to think that they simply need to view it in a different light.
Aiyan Rency Philip
People always say that doing nothing is the equivalent of being lazy. The road to failure. But I believe that doing nothing might be one of the best things you can do for yourself.
Hana Abdelmegid
There are many people that underestimate the ability our brain has - the effect it has on our well-being. I plan to explore its effect in detail, particularly by delineating the existence of consciousness.
Julianna Ramanayaka
Inspired by my journey with piano and football, "The Rhythm of Resilience" explores how failure, pauses, and offbeat moments build resilience - and why finding my own rhythm keeps me grounded and growing.
Kuvam Arora
My talk explores how AI became an unexpected mirror for self-reflection, helping me decode mental loops, build metacognition, and rewrite my inner algorithms to shape my wellbeing.
Lakshmy Anand
I take you on a journey around the world, challenging hustle culture. I show you how fulfillment is found in connection and collective wellbeing, not exhaustion and burnout.
Lilia Ahmed Mahmoud Abdul Qader
My talk, "The Happiness Mask," explores how people feel pressure to appear unfazed and normalise pretentious happiness, reminding us that honesty, vulnerability, and emotional experiences matter more.
Mohamad Wehbe
In my speech, I talk about exposing the "Silent Struggle" pain that that plagues us today. Through studies and personal experiences, I reveal the true way to deal with people in need of support and to recognise that breaking the heavy silence can save a life.
Mohammed Arham Mohsin
I think wellbeing is a shared network, not a solo pursuit. One small act of kindness can ripple silently through people, strengthening communities and building connection and collective wellbeing in powerful, unseen ways.
Mohammed Mubashir Siddiqi
My talk explains that detours can be reimagined as destiny. By giving personal and real-world examples, this talk will convince you that failures don't define who you are. "Failure is success in progress" - Albert Einstein.
Moriah Estipular
We always say, "It's mind over matter." I consider the opposite idea: that our body has a massive, unseen impact on our emotions that we can use.
Nathan Aranha
Sometimes, kindness is viewed as naive in today's world. So in my talk, I reveal the true power that simply being kind can have on our world.
Naveenramakrishnan Srirajaganapathy
As we run around a world where our thoughts revolve around overworking, overstimulation and losing yourself, I belive it's time we rebel against it through the awareness of our wellbeing.
Parth Karnik
Failure is universal, but it is not the end. I reframe failure as data, motivation, and resilience, showing how setbacks can be weaponised to drive growth.
Rahel Jobish
Neuroplasticity is ofter seen as an abstract concept, but what if it is the key to unlocking a new version of yourself? In this talk, I'll take you inside your brain, and explore how its remarkable ability to rewire itself can change your life.
Raniya Hanin
I believe calm is a hidden form of wealth. Through mindful choices, attention control, and other small daily investments, we can protect our emotional reserves and reclaim clarity in an increasingly overwhelming world.
Saadgee Singh
In "When Goals Become Traps", I explore how ambition can quietly turn into pressure, and how flexible goals and gratitude help us succeed without losing ourselves in the endless pursuit of perfection.
Shahgol Hassanzadeh
I walk you through the concept of crafting a simple algorithm of awareness, reflection and response to help you create sustained wellbeing.
Tanishq Tomar
I navigate the often despised idea of boredom and, with scientific links, show that the feeling doesn't have to be negative but can actually lift you up.
Zayn Sharma
Using traditional Japanese ideas and traditions in a unique way, my talk explores the ways our wellbeing can be compared with the practice of origami.
