TEDxMalibu Gears Up for Round Two

Speakers from across Malibu and nearby coastal cities will come together Sunday for a special TEDx event focusing on what it means to "Live Out Loud."

TEDxMalibu, which is now in its second year, is set for 10 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 2 at the Malibu Jewish Center & Synagogue.

Lisa Cypers Kamen, who is a co-organizer along with Brigitte Huff, said she had been watching TED Talks, which features speakers with ideas worth sharing, for years before applying for a license through TED. The first event focused on "Flourishing in the New Paradigm."

"I did it daring myself to do it. I’m really nobody in the community. I’m a Malibu resident. I will do it," Kamen said.

This year's speakers will focus on what it is like to "Live Out Loud," according to Kamen.

"What does it take to really live life fully? What does it take to be authentic, to be comfortable in your own skin and do what you’ve been put on this planet to do?" she said.

Attendees can expect to walk away creatively inspired, Kamen said.
