Na Cozinha do Sucesso com Propósito | Maria Julia Semedo Moreira | TEDxMindelo
Nesta inspiradora palestra TEDx, Maria Julia Semedo partilha como transformou talento em triunfo através de propósito e sacrifício. Desafiando a visão de Cabo Verde como "pobre", defende que o sucesso não é apenas sorte ou capacidade—é ação. No seu Chez Maria Julia Boutique Hotel, orienta jovens cabo-verdianos, oferecendo-lhes oportunidades para trabalhar, sonhar e crescer. Comparando o talento a especiarias—“inúteis sem uma refeição que as una”—enfatiza o trabalho árduo e a presença acima da paixão. Honesta e emotiva, Maria Julia redefine o sucesso como avançar com propósito, instando-nos a ativar os nossos dons e construir um futuro, começando hoje. Maria Julia Semedo is a Cape Verdean chef, entrepreneur, and owner of Chez Maria Julia Boutique Hotel in Praia. Born on Santiago Island and trained in Rotterdam at Albeda College and Gimsel Academy, she mastered sustainable cooking before returning home. Sister to singer Gil Semedo, she gained recognition with her TV show Na Cozinha Ku Maria Julia and built a modern hotel featuring organic dining, a rooftop garden, and a cooking studio. Through her work, she empowers youth, blending Cape Verdean heritage with a vision for a thriving, self-reliant community.

- 15:57Una riflessione fra informazione e cultura | Roberta Scorranese | TEDxToranoNuovoChe cosa resta della bellezza nell’incessante rumore delle nostre giornate? Chiacchiericcio, narcisismo, marketing, burocrazia digitale: come fare cultura nel mondo dell’informazione cercando di distinguere quello che è importante da quello che è interessante?
