Why I Attempt the World’s Most Dangerous Stunts | Michelle Khare | TED
Daredevil Michelle Khare has trained with Olympians, run seven marathons on seven continents in a single week, and even escaped Harry Houdini’s deadliest stunt. She shares how embracing fear, failure and an “amateur’s mindset” transformed her from a cautious child into someone who proves that daredevils aren’t born — they’re developed.

The New Science of Eyewitness Memory | John Wixted | TED
We’ve built a legal system that distrusts eyewitness memory — backed by cautionary science and high-profile exonerations. John Wixted, a leading psychology researcher, challenges this conventional wisdom with a counterintuitive finding: the problem might not be memory itself but how (and when) courts test it.

Very few! She worked at Buzzfeed before quitting to become a creator. Not necessarily the “starving artist” but not someone backed by millions of dollars

When you listen to Michelle’s story, you realize fear is not the enemy. Avoiding fear is what keeps most people living smaller than they are meant to. What she models so powerfully is the shift from treating fear as a stop sign, instead to treating it as information that helps you grow. When you stay in that beginner’s mindset and let failure teach you instead of define you, you open doors you never believed you could walk through. ⚡

Michelle’s journey from a cautious upbringing to embracing fear is truly inspiring. It raises an intriguing question: can we all cultivate a daredevil spirit by redefining our relationship with fear? Instead of seeing it only as a barrier, what if we treated fear as a compass pointing us toward growth? It’s fascinating how an amateur mindset can foster resilience and creativity—imagine how much untapped potential lies in each of us, waiting for that nudge into the unknown. Maybe the real adventure isn’t just in stunts, but in the everyday challenges we shy away from. What if we started small, confronting our fears daily? Would we find our own versions of daring experiences?
@EileenHoppenstedt

I love that idea! It’s like training our minds to see fear as an opportunity for growth. I’ve been trying to push myself out of my comfort zone lately—maybe we should start a challenge together!

So happy to see this!! You crushed your speech Michelle! So well spoken with such confidence!! I remember when I had written 3 or 4 years ago that you should do a challenge accepted episode where you do a TED talk overcoming public speaking and speaking about your cool experiences in front of an audience, I feel like that comment of mine came true today 🎉🎉🎉

Who would’ve thought she’d give a TED Talk? It’s genuinely inspiring.
It reminds me of the consequences and extent of neglecting myself–even if i’m not mentally the best.
I realized today because of that same neglect I might die–the consequences of a lack of self-care should never be underestimated.
I truly want to change. It’s not easy, but I’m trying, and I’ve already seen some improvement.
I don’t want to neglect myself or the people around me anymore.
small steps. I really want to face my freaking fears

My question is how much money is spended for those trainings against fear? How she got the time? Most of all the person has that excellent herself to fullfill all this. Can see the way how inspiring shes telling her story.

Stepping into fear is where life finally opens up. You don’t need to be born brave — you become brave by showing up, failing, and trying again. That’s where real growth begins

What a powerful message! Michelle’s journey shows us that fear isn’t something to avoid, but a catalyst for growth. When we embrace our fears with courage, we unlock our true potential. Every challenge we face is an opportunity to become stronger and more capable. Thank you for this inspiring talk! 🌟
