Pop Culture has a chokehold on today’s generation in many ways, and numerous ideas have arisen from the pop- industry that continues to influence people around the world. Antony Gordon has worked closer than most with some of the biggest names in the industry and the learnings he has taken from observing these people and how they affect us, are not few. He joined the TEDxHultLondon stage to dismantle the notion that a happy life equals a pain-free life, which he cleverly breaks down and demonstrates through his own life experiences. Antony explains that the reality that is shown by influential celebrities, a pain-free and blissful life, is far from the truth, and it’s important to understand it in order to live a fulfilled and happy life. Antony Gordon's background, training, and experience, including academic excellence; the representation of some of the most prominent personalities in sport and entertainment; select training in the human psyche blended with his success as a stand up comic and raw authenticity places him in a unique position to ignite a spark in a dark world and to become the voice for a generation looking for tools and direction to navigate through the landmines along the journey of life. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
