Peace,
Alicia Dugar Stephenson, ERYT
Rice University Yoga Lecturer
Alicia has been taking over Discovery Green to make yoga accessible to everyone and in just a few short weeks, she’ll be taking over the TEDxThirdWard stage with her big idea: Can Yoga Prevent Nuclear War?
From movement to mindfulness, her talk challenges us to rethink the way we heal, connect, and coexist with one another. This is more than yoga. It’s about humanity, peace, and what happens when wellness becomes a tool for transformation.
One thing about TEDxThirdWard finalists… they’re not coming to play small. 🎤✨ #tedxthirdward
The TEDxThirdWard Mixer is for the thinkers, the builders, the speakers, the creatives, the people brave enough to put their ideas into the world. Whether you made Cohort 3 or not, you are still part of this community and we want you in the room.
Come connect with finalists, mentors, organizers, and future collaborators. You never know which conversation could lead to your next opportunity, breakthrough, or “yes.”

One minute. That’s all it takes to hear something that could shift the way you see the world.
This is Aaliyah — one of our TEDx Third Ward finalists — stepping into her big idea. Not watered down. Not over-explained. Just truth, clarity, and conviction.
Because if you can’t say it simply, you don’t fully own it yet.
And she owns it.
These are the voices getting ready to take the stage. The ones bold enough to challenge what we’ve been taught, and brave enough to say it out loud.
Press play. Then tell us — what part stayed with you?

Cohort 3 is going GLOBAL. 🌍 We have 3 speakers joining us from outside the United States — bringing perspectives that cross borders and challenge assumptions. Ideas don’t have passports. 🔴 Guess where they’re coming from 👇
45 days from now, 30 speakers will take the stage to deliver their TEDx Talks.
But what you’re seeing right now… is the becoming.
The late nights. The rewriting. The vulnerability it takes to stand in your truth before the world ever hears it.
Ideas are being sharpened. Stories are being uncovered. Voices are finding their power.
And in 45 days… they won’t just be ready.
They’ll be unforgettable.
Tickets are available now at the link in our bio and they will sell out.
Stay close. You’re witnessing something special in the making. 🎤✨
What separates a good talk from a great one?
According to Dr. Emily Jamea (Editor’s Pick, Cohort 2):
It’s not just practice.
It’s not just recording.
It’s stepping in front of people… and performing before it counts.
