Ted Talks Daily brings you a new TED Talk every weekday. Today we're talking about making trouble with author, speaker and podcast host, Lovey Ajai Jones. Dan Harris on how meditation can make us better at showing up for the people in our lives. Shankar Vadantam on why we're so bad at judging what we'll want in the future.
Most positive change starts with a challenge to the status quo. But going against the current and speaking up for the right thing can be a challenge–especially if you’re the only one voicing your concerns. Luvvie Ajayi Jones is a two-time New York Times bestselling author, podcast host, and a self-described professional troublemaker. In this episode, Luvvie shares why she’s reclaiming the term “troublemaker”, gives tips on gathering the courage to speak up, and explains why she thinks all of us would benefit from getting a little more comfortable with being uncomfortable.
