How memory distortion affects our lives | Mikel Garcia Mondragon | TEDxYouth@ASM

In this compelling talk, Mikel explores how the brain distorts memories to protect us during times of trauma and change. Drawing from neuroscience and his personal journey of moving from Mexico to Spain during the pandemic, he reveals how distorted memories can limit our happiness and self-perception. Mikel empowers the audience to question the narratives they hold about themselves and encourages the rewriting of those stories to unlock new possibilities and purpose.
