Emma Eades talks about how simple connections can change people's lives. One small change can make a very big difference, not just on others, but on our world.

Emma Eades is a freshman at Marysville High School. When she is not studying, she loves playing around with flowers and learning new songs on her piano. She considers her parents to be her greatest role models and and says they inspire her to be outgoing and try new things, such as giving a TED talk. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
