Sandra Hilton talks about the importance of connecting with your life's purpose.

Sandra helps senior leaders of global organisations discover and define their purpose in order to be authentic and effective in an increasingly stressful and chaotic world. Her work is informed by her own life experience as Sandra has a pretty eclectic background. Before becoming a consultant, she spent several years as a project finance lawyer and before that worked in the film industry, living and working for almost ten years in Russia through the dramatic changes of the 90s.

Whatever she has been involved in, she is driven by the belief that everyone is more successful and more fulfilled when they're living on purpose and bring the value that only they can bring. Her passion is to help people understand, define and live that value and to serve her own life purpose of creating wholeness within herself and others.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
