Be Authentic, Be Bold, Be You – Be a Unicorn in a Field of Horses | Kyra Wong | TEDxKerrisdaleLive
Kyra dug deep into her shadow to overcome rejection, learn to free her inner self, and find her true calling. In this inspiring talk, she shows us how we can break free from social conditioning, discover our inner unicorn, and ultimately transform our lives.

She was also nominated as a Woman of Distinction at the Canadian Mortgage Awards in 2019 and received the 2019 WIMI Ambassador Award.
