In a world where loneliness has reached alarming heights, how can we reconnect with ourselves and each other? Terry challenges us to rediscover the power of curiosity—not just as a tool for learning, but as a bridge to deeper human connection. Dr. Nguyen is the Chair of Pediatrics at the Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC) in Baltimore, Maryland. Dr. Nguyen completed her undergraduate degree from Johns Hopkins University. She received her medical degree and master’s degree in health policy from New York University School of Medicine and New York University Wagner. She completed her pediatric residency and Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars fellowship at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She also completed a fellowship in Integrative Medicine at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona.

Dr. Nguyen has practiced pediatrics for over 25 years. She is passionate about whole-person wellness (mind, body and spirit). She helps engage and empower young adults and the adults in their lives best support them. Dr. Nguyen helps young adults and their supporters launch them into adulthood with confidence and resilience. She frequently contributes her pediatric and wellness expertise on television news (NBC Nightly News, WBFF Fox 45, WBAL TV 11, WMAR 2 TV) and in print media (CNN, NPR, Baltimore Sun). Dr. Nguyen has been recognized by her peers as a Top Doctor in Baltimore Magazine for many years. She is a recognized leader; she received a Women of Impact Leadership Award from GBMC in 2023 and a Maryland Record's Top 100 Women of 2024 award. 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
