๐ŸŒŸ HELENA LYNE
Talk: Compassion as an Act of Radical Resistance

A biochemist, STEM educator, and mindfulness scholar, Helena explores compassion as a force for personal resilience and meaningful social change.
In this thought-provoking talk, she challenges cultural norms around stress, productivity, and worth โ€” inviting us to rethink the narratives that separate us, both locally and globally.

With a blend of scientific curiosity and heartfelt honesty, Helena shows that compassion isnโ€™t soft, optional, or idealistic โ€” itโ€™s a radical act. A practice we all share. A power that can transform our inner world and the future we build together.

Press play, reflect, and share the ideas that move you.
