TEDx Twente 2025 Penny de Villiers
Your job isn’t your worth—Penny de Villiers shares how chasing titles and output led to burnout, and why reframing value is essential in an age of automation. From a formative lesson by Jim Rohn to a breakdown that exposed identity scaffolding, she challenges us to locate value in human traits—curiosity, compassion, and conscience—rather than performance. Along the way she connects rising burnout, looming AI disruption (Eric Schmidt, Yuval Noah Harari), and basic-income trials to one core question: where will we find value when roles shift or disappear? A grounded talk for students and professionals alike.
