The Hidden Dangers of Quick-Fix Self-Improvement Culture | Lucas Wang | TEDxMcfarren Boulevard Youth

In this TEDx talk, Lucas Wang explores how an education system obsessed with grades has quietly shaped a generation that knows how to succeed on paper—but not how to understand themselves. Drawing on the experiences of today’s teens, Lucas reveals how academic intelligence has been prioritized at the cost of emotional intelligence, leaving many young people struggling with confidence, self-worth, and emotional resilience. By unpacking how we were taught to suppress feelings instead of process them, this talk challenges parents, educators, and students to rethink what it really means to be “smart”—and why learning to understand ourselves may be the most important skill of all. - Speaker of The Hidden Dangers of Quick-Fix Self-Improvement Culture This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
