Rooted Within, Blooming Outward | Nuanyang Chen | TEDxTCA Youth

In this talk, Nuanyang Chen shares how strength, discipline, and self-acceptance helped her grow from an ordinary girl who loved movement into someone who encourages more women to embrace their own power. Through fitness, entrepreneurship, public recognition, and moments of exhaustion and doubt, she reflects on what it means to root inward before blooming outward. Her story invites us to break free from narrow definitions of femininity, stay committed in unseen moments, and become the person we genuinely want to be. Nuanyang Chen, also known as Chen Jing, is a fashion creator, entrepreneur, and advocate for women’s empowerment. She is a Forbes Under 30 honoree, a lifestyle influencer with a large following, and the founder of a women’s activewear brand. She is also a marathon pacer who promotes the idea of “her power” through sport and self-expression. In 2018, she served as a torchbearer for the Jakarta Asian Games, and she has also appeared as a guest on the reality show Yes, I Do. 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
