Bold Enough to Begin
The TEDxUStreetWomen Legacy Series — Chapter One
Every transformative journey begins with one bold vision.
Bold Enough to Begin launches the TEDxUStreetWomen Legacy Series with the premiere of The Ideas Continue, a feature documentary chronicling the vision, courage, and community that gave rise to TEDxUStreetWomen.
More than a documentary premiere, this experience is a celebration of beginnings—of the ideas, decisions, and people willing to take the first step before knowing exactly where it might lead.
Through memorable TEDxUStreetWomen alumni talks, archival footage, behind-the-scenes moments, and reflections from speakers, organizers, volunteers, and community members, The Ideas Continue tells the story of how one idea grew into a platform for voices, connection, and lasting impact.
This first chapter asks a simple but powerful question:
What can happen when someone is bold enough to begin?
The Experience
Guests will experience the premiere of The Ideas Continue: Bold Enough to Begin, followed by a special fireside chat with Kim Webster, MBA, Executive Producer and Licensee of TEDxUStreetWomen, joined by TEDx speaker alumni.
The conversation will go behind the story to explore the vision that started TEDxUStreetWomen, the risks and lessons along the way, the people who helped shape the journey, and what it means to be bold enough to begin before the path is fully clear.
The experience then continues with the TEDxUStreetWomen Legacy Series signature experience:
Ideas in Action
The conversation does not end when the documentary does.
Following the premiere and fireside chat, participants will move from watching and hearing ideas to engaging with them through facilitated small-group conversations inspired by the documentary and selected TEDx Talks.
Each conversation will center around a thought-provoking question designed to help participants reflect on their own:
- Bold decisions
- Ideas and aspirations
- Moments of courage
- Opportunities for impact
- Next steps
This is not traditional networking.
Ideas in Action is designed to create authentic conversation and meaningful connections around the ideas that shape our lives, communities, and futures.
Guests will leave with more than business cards. They will leave with new perspectives, new relationships, and perhaps the inspiration to begin something of their own.
Who Should Attend?
This experience is for anyone who believes ideas have the power to create change—including entrepreneurs, community leaders, creatives, professionals, educators, changemakers, TEDx alumni, and those simply looking for inspiration and meaningful connection.
Be Part of the Legacy
TEDxUStreetWomen has always been about more than a stage.
It has been about the people who shared an idea, the volunteers who built the experience, the audiences who carried those ideas forward, and the community that made it possible.
Now, as we reflect on that journey, we invite you to be part of what comes next.
Come reflect. Come connect. Come be inspired.
And perhaps leave bold enough to begin.
