Coming Out About the Barrier I Did Not Break... | Landon Foster | TEDxUSF
In this important talk "Coming Out About the Barrier I Did Not Break Because of the Courage I Did Not Have," Landon discusses breaking the barriers of comfort and acceptance in our lives. Landon shares his passion for promoting self-worth and learning from the world around us through the conversation of LGBTQ+ visibility in athletics. Landon is a 23 year old non-degree seeking student at the University of South Florida Saint Petersburg. He played football for four years at the University of Kentucky where he was an All-American on the field and a 2x Academic All-American. Landon studied Finance and Marketing at the University of Kentucky and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a 3.92 GPA. He is currently applying to Master of Finance programs with a desire to kickstart his business career. Through the conversation of the role of identity in athletics, Landon wants to discuss the barrier he did not break and how we must be willing to have the courage to live authentically, walk alone in our life path, and embrace failure. 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
