Lean into your fears and start living your dreams | Emilie Uttrup | TEDxRWTHAachen

Let Emilie inspire you to follow your dreams, to speak up, and to draw outside the lines. Let her tell you about the power of leaning into your fears and how we sometimes have to do the uncomfortable inner work to discover and follow our dreams. Emilie Uttrup is a keynote speaker, writer, content creator and holds a Master’s Degree in Marketing. Growing up in Denmark, she competed in show-jumping with horses and at the age of nineteen she moved to China to work professionally within the equestrian industry. A tragic car accident in 2009 turned Emilie’s life upside down, and forced her to confront everything she had ever known and go out on uncharted waters. Fast-forward ten years later, and Emilie has since lived in three different countries, represented her country in both the European and the World Surfing Championships, and most importantly, has opened up about her struggles throughout. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
