In her inspiring TEDxShenzhen talk, Su Min shared her extraordinary journey of breaking free and finding herself. At an age of 50+, when most people settle into routine, this courageous woman in her fifties left behind a stifling marriage to embark on a life-changing solo adventure. With raw honesty, she recounted both the struggles - from financial constraints to safety concerns - and the unexpected kindness of strangers that marked her path to freedom. More than just a travelogue, Su Min's story became a powerful manifesto for self-discovery, challenging societal norms and proving that traditional women, too, can claim their right to freedom and self-love. Her heartfelt message resonated deeply: she urged younger generations to support their mothers' dreams, while inspiring everyone to embrace life's possibilities and author their own extraordinary stories.
