In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).

However, after her crowning achievement, she decided to step back from the spotlight to pursue inner peace and spiritual values. Rather than seeking media attention, Tra My chose to slow down, dedicating her time to charity work and community projects. As the image ambassador of the Hanoi Warmth Volunteer Campaign Season 5, alongside thousands of university students, Tra My and other volunteers have made journeys helping those in need in various difficult regions and locations. Additionally, she has been involved in numerous other charitable projects over the years, most recently in a series of gratitude journeys to honor wounded veterans and those who have served the country. These meaningful experiences have given Tra My a deeper perspective on life. She realized that happiness doesn’t always come from external glamor but from values like love, sharing, and gratitude. For this reason, Miss Tra My always holds the belief: “We only have one life to live, so live it wholeheartedly, with kindness and love. Because, in the end, it is not about what we receive, but about what we give.” She believes that even when faced with challenges or failures, these are valuable lessons that help us grow.
