With sparkling humor, Swiss Drag Icon Odette Hella’Grand shares her personal story and reflects on the unwritten rules among the LGTBYQ+ community. In her talk, she shares her struggles to meet the narrow expectations of society on sexuality and shines a light on the drastic high suicide rate among young gays. She calls for embracing your yin and yang - meaning embracing your own individuality and uniqueness - no matter who you are. Odette Hella’Grand was born in Basel and spent most of her years on different stages all across Switzerland and Europe as a performer at weddings, birthdays, and even funerals. She started her career working for the Aids Foundation giving out free condoms to men in need and an open ear for any advice on sexual health. Nowadays, Odette is a producer and hostess to bring joy and entertainment to all kinds of events. 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
