What happens when the thing youâve been known for no longer fits, but whatâs next isnât fully defined yet?
This talk focuses on the often uncomfortable phase of outgrowing a version of yourself before the next one has fully taken shape. Itâs about learning to trust internal signals â the nudges, curiosities, and shifts in energy â that often come before clarity or a clear path.
Through personal stories â from losing her spark as a DJ to redefining her work through sound therapy and experience design â Bianca Lee shares how following what felt true led her to carve out an unconventional path: designing sound-based experiences that support how people feel in high-stimulation and high-performance environments, from workplaces to public spaces like airports and museums.
This talk invites you to reconsider how you make decisions, how you define your work, and what might shift if you trusted what your body and curiosity have been pointing you toward.
