Escaping the Box: Building a Life Beyond Expectations
From a small row house in Germany—where teachers once told her she'd never amount to anything—to the glittering high-rises of Hong Kong, where she worked alongside one of Asia’s most powerful tycoons, Uta Birkmayer climbed the ladder of global success. But at the peak of her career, she faced a powerful realization: she had built a life she could achieve, but not the life she truly wanted.

In this deeply personal and empowering talk, Uta walks us through her journey of escaping the societal and self-imposed boxes that defined her early life, and how she ultimately chose a new path rooted in authenticity, meaning, and impact.
