We often come across many expectations of success in modern society today. These expectations of success are being constructed by social media, our family demands, and ultimately our demographic background. As it seems, success is often attached to money Yet, an individual’s success should be determined by their purpose. With purpose, comes passion and with passion comes the way to obtain success.  Sierra Holmes was born and raised in Houston,TX. She is a senior at Texas State University now studying Nutrition and Dietetics after changing her major from Broadcast Journalism. This choice to changer her major stemmed from her desire to invest her efforts into an area that would benefit a generation of people on an optimal level. With nutrition being 80% of one’s health, she made the choice to live a healthy lifestyle and motivates people to do the same. Her goal is to obtain her Master’s in Nutrition and her PhD. in Naturopathic Medicine. She hopes to open her own practice to continue bringing the needs of nutrition into the community and around the world. To achieve her goal, she invests much of her time towards innovation, public speaking, broadcasting, reading, and uplifting others on a daily basis.  This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
