In 2019, Tim Miller's participation in a charity car rally led to the inception of Lids4Kids, a recycling initiative aimed at repurposing plastic lids to support children with cancer. The project gained momentum when a viral Facebook post sparked widespread community involvement, flooding Tim's team with lid donations. Despite initial challenges at recycling depots and a temporary pause due to Covid-19 safety concerns, Tim and his team persevered. With the addition of Emma Holliday, they restructured the charity, establishing The Hub in Canberra as a center for recycling and education. Here, lids were transformed into raw materials for manufacturing, leading to the creation of colorful benches sold to support the charity's operations. Today, Lids4Kids thrives as a symbol of community resilience, having rescued millions of lids from landfills and making a tangible impact on environmental conservation.

turn my TEDx script summary into a childrens book: From the time we’re young, we’re asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” This question implies that our identity is tied to our job title. But in today’s rapidly evolving world, especially with the rise of AI and automation, this question is outdated. Instead, we should ask ourselves, “What impact do I want to have?” and “How do I align my values and passions with my work?” More than 70% of people worldwide are disengaged in their jobs, often feeling unfulfilled. I’ve been there myself—trapped in a job that didn’t align with my passions. However, I changed my narrative by focusing on what truly mattered to me, not just what society expected. I started designing a career that fit who I am, instead of molding myself to fit a traditional career path. As AI continues to transform industries, the future of work demands flexibility, lifelong learning, and aligning our careers with our strengths and values. We can’t prepare for jobs that don’t exist yet, but we can cultivate skills that allow us to adapt—creativity, collaboration, and leadership. The key is to reflect on your vocation and values: Does your work bring you alive? Are you creating value for others? By answering these questions, you can craft a career that aligns with who you are and leaves a meaningful impact. Instead of asking, “What do you want to be?” let’s ask, “What mark do you want to leave?”

Once upon a time, over a thousand years ago,in the 11th Century, there lived a brave Viking named Leif Erickson. Leif loved the sea, just like his father before him. He had a big ship, and he was always looking for new places to explore. One day, Leif heard stories about a mysterious land far to the west, beyond the cold waters from where he lived. Excited and curious, he gathered his crew and set sail. They packed their ship with food and strong shields for the journey. The wind blew, and the waves were bigger than expected, they splashed against his ship as they sailed across the ocean. The stars guided their way. For many days and nights, they sailed, until one day, they saw land in the distance! What could this new place be? Leif and his crew sailed closer and found a land with tall trees, and grapes growing on vines. Leif was so happy to see such a beautiful place that he named it Vinland, which means "Land of Wine." The Vikings set up camp and built small houses to stay in. They spent the winter in Vinland, enjoying the fresh food and exploring the forests and fields. But as winter came to an end, Leif knew it was time to return home. He and his crew packed up their ship, and with one last look at the beautiful land, they set sail back home. Leif promised himself he would tell everyone about this amazing place he had discovered. When they returned home, Leif shared the story of Vinland with other Vikings. Even though he never returned to Vinland, he was proud to be the first European to find and explore it. And so, the tale of Leif Erickson and his journey across the Atlantic Ocean was told for many years. He showed everyone that with bravery, a strong ship, and a little bit of adventure, you could discover incredible new places, even ones you didn’t expect! And that is how the Vikings and Leif Erickson became the first Europeans to reach North America.

Fran and Jim go to the beach. Fran’s parents and Jim’s parents are there. Fran, Jim and both of their parents are from the Turks and Caicos Islands. Fran takes off her slippers and feels the sand between her toes. Jim runs towards the sea; he couldn’t wait to get into the water. Before reaching the water, Jim pauses, looks around and shouts to Fran to go into the water with him. Fran starts to run towards Jim then stops before reaching the water. Jims asks “what’s wrong? Don’t you want to go swimming with me?”. Fran looked a little sad and said “I want to go swimming but I don’t know how. I am afraid.” Jim tells Fran, “don’t be afraid, I have something that can help you to learn how to swim. Come with me.” Jim then runs towards his parents and shouts to his mother, “mommy, can you please give me the arm floats?”. Jim’s mother took out the arm floats from her beach bag, and gave them to Jim. Jim gave one to Fran and said “here, blow that float up and I will blow this one up”. Fran and Jim each blew up one arm float. Then Jim said “Now slide these up your arms. I will help you. They will help you to float in the water.” After the floats were on her little upper arms, she held out her arms and started to walk towards the water with Jim. Jim went into the water up to his knees first. Jim then turned and reached out his hand to Fran and said “come in the water with me”. Fran held his hand and walked into the water with him. As Fran went further into the water, she then exclaimed to Jim “I can’t feel the bottom with my feet anymore!”. Jim then laughed and said, “that’s because you are floating”. Then Fran realized that the arm floats were helping her to float. She then laughed and shouted to her parents saying “Mommy, Daddy, I am floating!”. Her parents waved to her smiling and Jim’s parents were also smiling. Fran and Jim then had fun laughing and playing in the water together, while both of their parents looked on, smiling. Fran and Jim had the best beach day ever.

Die Geschichte sollte einfache, nachvollziehbare Situationen verwenden und zeigen, wie das Kind darüber nachdenkt, wie es sich in ähnlichen Umständen fühlen würde. So wird Empathie auf eine spielerische und sanfte Weise vermittelt.
