What are some of the key concerns of our youth?   Through Youth Conversations introduced earlier this year by National Youth Council and Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, youth from all walks of life came together to discuss issues that concern them, such as mental health, environmental sustainability, and definitions of success. Not only did they exchange ideas and perspectives, they also developed solutions to take Singapore forward.    Let us continue to support our youth in realising their ideas for a better future. Do check out today’s Lianhe Zaobao 《联合早报》 article for stories of our inspirational youth.   由文化、社区及青年部和全国青年理事会举办的“青年论坛”已吸引了不少年轻人参与。他们对社会课题发表意见和讨论解决方案。请阅读今天的《联合早报》，了解“青年论坛”要达到的目标和参与者从中所获得的启发。 Link to article in bio.   #sgyouthconvo #PassionxPurpose #YOUTHx #AtTheHeartOfOurNation https://www.instagram.com/p/BnyGGNdjLhn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=auwv3wtbqwiu

Joined in the festivities at the recent YOUTHx weekend! With the three key anchor events - SHINE Festival, Hyperplay and GetActive!SG – it was a great platform to see our youth shine in their talent and passion. I was also at the Hyperplay finals together with our friends from around the region. We are honoured to be hosting the first-ever ASEAN esports tournament and music festival as part of our ASEAN chairmanship this year. Glad to see our youth stepping out of their comfort zones to chase their dreams while making new friends from around the region. You’ll only discover your potential if you are willing to take that first step! #nycsg #YOUTHx #SHINEFest #PassionxPurpose

Today, I had the privilege to speak on a panel with two amazing Bay Area momprenuers thanks to our host @sweetgreen. We revealed our stories, offered advice on how to balance motherhood, entrepreneurship, and shared our versions of health and wellness. The beauty of it is that today wasn’t about showcasing this side of motherhood that is so often portrayed as this perfectly manicured slice of heaven. Today was about raw, honest, and real conversations about the sides that are so often not shown to the public. Like @bossmom_shah and @katiehintzzambrano, motherhood has shaped us. It’s given us purpose and fuel for our passions and has propelled us into creating businesses and projects that has allowed us to become the badass mamas that we are. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Many thanks to @sweetgreen for this incredible speaker series geared towards Passion x Purpose. I’m looking forward to seeing this continue to grow, inspire, and empower the local community to find the courage to look within themselves to pursue their incredible passions. #sweetlife #sweetgreen #passionxpurpose #bossmom ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ pc 📸: @encarnacionphotography (at sweetgreen)
