How Disruption Became My Superpower—and Nearly Destroyed Me | Alex Kowalkoski | TEDxTemecula

What if your greatest strength—the drive to disrupt—was also your biggest risk? In this raw and revealing talk, entrepreneur Alex Kowalkoski shares how being labeled “different” nearly burned him out, and the 3 powerful anchors every disruptor needs to stay grounded while changing the game. This is a roadmap for leaders who move fast, dream big, and feel everything. Disruption fuels growth—but unchecked, it can burn everything your drive builds. In this talk, entrepreneur and community leader Alex Kowalkoski reveals The Disruptor’s Anchor—three powerful strategies to ground your ambition without losing yourself or those around you. As a marketing innovator, carnival creator, and founder of Prime Media Consulting, Alex knows what it means to challenge norms. Diagnosed on the spectrum and often labeled “different,” he turned that label into his greatest edge—then learned the hard way how to contain it when the business world pushed back. Drawing from two decades of building businesses and communities from the ground up, Alex shares raw, real insights for disruptors who are tired of the burnout cycle and ready to lead with clarity, resilience, and purpose. 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
