A Map Back to Wonder | Krithya Purushothaman | TEDxUniversity of Birmingham Dubai

What if creativity wasn’t a talent, but a memory waiting to be revived? In this poetic and research-backed talk, Krithya Purushothaman explores how we lose our sense of wonder as we grow—and how we can reclaim it through awe, curiosity, and play. From childhood drawings to neuroscience and “awe walks,” she offers a practical map for reigniting vitality in our everyday lives. A heartfelt reminder that joy isn’t something to earn—it’s something to return to. What if creativity wasn’t a talent, but a memory waiting to be revived?
