How to Figure Out Who You Are as an Asian American | Mayuko Inoue | TEDxUCSD

[@hellomayuko]

Thank you again TEDxUCSD for having me, and thank you, person reading this, for watching and listening to my story 💖

[@TheCarlosAlfaro]

So good!

[@jaimearriola1495]

Wow 😯😁 Congratulations Mayuko 🥳

[@tedxucsd7503]

Thank you, Mayuko! It was definitely our pleasure to share your story and reflections, so thank you.

[@sakojoyce4432]

do you have a podcast? if not, please please start a podcast that would be AMAZING

[@feicai3901]

Love from the Netherlands Mayuko! You are a young female leader! So glad to hear you talk about this on TEDx!

[@stevensong8784]

I never wanted to be a KZbinr. I wanted to be a film director, now I want to go into coding. I hope to get involved with film, social issues, while keep coding as my main thing. Thank you for sharing! Ms. Inoue.

Huge respect to Mayuko for her vulnerability and beautiful expressiveness. This wasn’t the main point of the talk, but you can’t blame people for encouraging risk-aversion: achieving life milestones like owning a home & raising children have become _almost impossible_ without a great career, especially in California.

very interesting to finally see a very open yet intriguing insight from a person in a similar path I’ve been in for the past several decades.

[@Alessandro_Franzoni]

You asked yourself the great question! Good luck on your, our, discovery journey.

[@vladinstein]

Wow I was watching this kind of casually but the ending really hit me hard, like suddenly you started talking directly to me. Those words about deserving to exist are really cool, I needed to hear that. I was just thinking about similar things. Exploring who you are, defining who you are, seeing the whole world in front of you. Thank you for sharing.

[@野岳]

Thank you for your good view.That's so lit.

[@intesivec0re]

I do respect you Mayuko, you’re special.

[@austinlee_inc]

Would have loved to hear more about the transition from leaving the lucrative SWE life to becoming a KZbinr, nonetheless I admire your courage and willingness to follow your passion- even if it may not be the conventional route! (At least for Asian Americans)

[@alexdao9006]

Thank you for your message!

[@shan504]

I loved this! Thank you so much!

Love your videos!! Support!! Thanks Mayuko!! I'm a fan from Malaysia 🤩🤩

[@DrJohana21]

I’m not Japanese but my kids are. And this gives me a perspective and insight on how they feel as Japanese Americans. Also a appreciation for their background.

[@casperann]

Wow Mayuko is on Ted talk, congrats!

[@jj1bdx]

Encouraging talk to all Asian Americans and returnee Japanese like me. :)

[@meb3369]

Highly relatable origin story as a biracial southeast Asian who grew up in a 95% white district.

[@oluwagbogoajimoko9035]

@mayuko You look like Angela Duckworth.

All people are subject to certain restrictions by birth and upbringing. Life will be richer if you broaden your horizons, learn about different values. What a boring comment!

[@bruhmomenthdr7575]

Comment or commentary?

Figuring out who you are as a human being *

[@primrosetakahashi]

why do you pronounce your Japanese name with an American accent? * the American way, like Nobuki turned into NO- BOO- KEY

[@HOurWrld999]

Can’t stand this race nonsense , we are the human race that’s all stop being distracted by such division people , unsubscribed from TED ✌️
