Why wanting change doesn't change us | Andi Long | TEDxStGeorge

What can a coffee farm in Colombia teach us about human transformation? Drawing on her background in biology, behavior, and leadership, Andi Long explores why knowing what needs to change is rarely enough, and how the patterns we repeatedly cultivate shape who we become.

#BehaviorChange #PersonalGrowth #HumanPotential #TEDxStGeorge #TEDx #TEDxSpeaker #coffee Andi Long is an International Impact Book Award-winning author, speaker, educator, and founder of Codex Hathor Systems™, where she develops original frameworks exploring human behavior, leadership, and personal transformation. For more than 25 years, she has pursued one enduring question: Why do people remain stuck despite knowing what needs to change? Drawing from biology, education, behavioral science, coaching, and lived experience, her work challenges the assumption that awareness alone leads to transformation. She believes lasting transformation begins when awareness becomes honesty—and honesty becomes agency. As the author of The 256 Gate, Andi’s mission is to help people stop postponing their lives and become active participants in them. https://www.andilong.com This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
