Highlights and take-aways from Emily Ash Powell’s ‘Growth’ talk and ‘Collective Group Therapy Session'
In this talk, Emily shares a candid and deeply personal reflection on creativity, performance, vulnerability, and the quiet moments that shape who we are. Moving between humour, storytelling, and self-reflection, she explores how we show up on stages, in our work, and in our everyday lives - and what happens when we let go of the pressure to perform.
