Labeled as too ambitious, too emotional, too loud, or too driven—many of us are taught to shrink ourselves to fit into the boxes society creates. This talk challenges that narrative by celebrating what it means to be “too much.” It explores the power of dreaming big, embracing multiple passions, and refusing to dim your light to make others comfortable. Through stories of rejection, resilience, and unexpected breakthroughs, it makes a compelling case for why being unapologetically yourself—even when it's inconvenient or misunderstood—is not just okay, but essential. Because sometimes, being “too much” is exactly what the world needs. Anna Susan Roy is a rising star who blends beauty, talent, and ambition.
