From Loss to Strength—A Journey of Healing | Sai Singh | TEDxGoodShepherdIntlSchool
Sai opens up about the profound grief he felt after losing his beloved father. In the wake of this loss, it wasn’t just family who held him up—it was the quiet, steady presence of friends at school that helped him begin to heal. He shares that in moments like these, family alone isn't always enough. Sometimes, it takes a whole village of support to carry someone through.Grief, he says, doesn’t just break you—it reshapes you. It teaches you how fragile life is, and how important it is to treasure every fleeting thought, every shared laugh, every small, beautiful moment. Through this pain, Sai has grown stronger, more resilient, and more present. His story is one of heartbreak, but also of hope. Sai is a passionate advocate for personal growth through grief, drawing from their own transformative experiences. When not inspiring others on stage, he can be found playing football, experimenting in the kitchen, or strumming his bass guitar, blending creativity and resilience into every aspect of life. With a commitment to help others strive through their ups and downs, he believes that grief is something that should be embraced and not looked down upon.
