<p>In honor of National Poetry Month, Chris is speaking with Naisha Randhar. Naisha is the Youth Poet Laureate of Dallas, the author of Roses of Arma, and the youngest guest Chris has ever interviewed — she’s a high school sophomore. Chris and Naisha talk about the inspiring work of teaching teenagers poetry and how to balance self-awareness with self-confidence. Naisha also encourages listeners to be witnesses more than interpreters and how it’s equally important to witness yourself and your presence in the world.</p><br><p><strong>Follow</strong></p><p>Host: Chris Duffy (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/chrisiduffy/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> |<a href="https://chrisduffycomedy.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Website</a>)</p><br><p><strong>Links</strong></p><p><a href="https://dallaslibrary2.org/poetry/youthpoetlaureate.php" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youth Poet Laureate of Dallas</a></p><p><a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/roses-of-arma-naisha-randhar/17509088?ean=9781639403479&amp;next=t" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Roses of Arma</a> by Naisha Randhar</p><br><p><strong>Subscribe to TED</strong></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ted</a></p><p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@TED</a></p><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXFocVNnRWFvUUcyWm1ib2psTkJ5RlVpOTRWZ3xBQ3Jtc0tuWkZaWEc3YzMwWkxubG9LdEJXMTBONkhOZ0VXSmtIaVFXZng3WmdEWVpUZ25BUFo1dk1jM21nanQxT2UzN25PQTNfLVVlMkw4ZVlwMUFTb05TRGJORHoxT3hoZjdfZFRQeDRBMlFIYkRJSEkwc3hhbw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiktok.com%2F%40tedtoks&amp;v=9IFo0WjDvL4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@tedtoks</a></p><p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ted-conferences</a></p><p>Website: <a href="www.ted.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ted.com</a></p><p>Podcasts: <a href="https://www.ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ted.com/podcasts</a></p><br><p>For the full text transcript, visit <a href="http://go.ted.com/BHTranscripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">go.ted.com/BHTranscripts</a></p><p>For the full text transcript, visit <a href="https://go.ted.com/BHTranscripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">go.ted.com/BHTranscripts</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
