The Power of And: Why Real Success Demands Wholeness

Date Posted:Wed, 6th Aug 2025

At TEDx Al Wasl, David Singleton will be challenging the myth that imbalance fuels high performance. Through The Essence Framework, David will show how integrating work, home, community and self leads not to compromise, but to exponential success. It's time to stop choosing between ambition and balance because the most fulfilled, high-performing people don't.

At TEDx Al Wasl, David Singleton challenges a belief he once held himself: that imbalance is the price of high performance. In fact, it's the enemy of it. Drawing on The Essence Framework, which unites work, home, community and self as one integrated whole, David shows how the most successful people don't choose between ambition and balance. They thrive at the intersections.

We've long believed success comes at the cost of fulfillment, that we must choose between thinking big and living in balance. But what if the real truth is that you can't afford not to have it all? David reveals how fragmentation undermines our health, happiness, and performance and how true power comes when we align every domain of our lives.

"Think Big and Have Balance. You Can Have Both."

Why the most successful people refuse to choose between success and balance.

Tickets are limited in person, unlimited online.
