In this inspiring reflection, Razan shares how getting lost—on a stormy trail and in life—became the very thing that helped her find herself. From ultramarathons to career pivots, she reminds us that the path to purpose isn’t always straight, and sometimes, you have to make your own way. Razan is a Health Informatics Specialist and Adidas Runners Captain, viewing life as a lifelong journey of exploration. What started as a search for purpose evolved into a journey of self-discovery, where she found joy in movement and a deeper connection with nature. This passion drives her to help others navigate their paths, believing that "through sports, we have the power to change lives." With expertise in health information systems, including cardiology, data integration, and regulatory services, Razan is committed to improving healthcare. As a leader in the Adidas Runners community, she inspires others to embrace uncertainty, grow through movement, and discover their strength. She is also dedicated to fostering growth in both the health and fitness fields. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
