Meet Don Jones – TEDxArgyle St 2025 Speaker

What if the most advanced resource in the universe… is us?

From Halifax’s basketball courts to global leadership labs, Don Jones has dedicated his life to unlocking human potential. He’s worked with Olympic teams, founded a leadership development firm, and designed award-nominated simulations that have trained over 40,000 leaders in 70 countries. Known as one of the world’s top simulation designers, his company was a finalist for Fast Company’s Global Innovation Award alongside Meta and UNICEF.

In his TEDx talk, The Architecture of Human Potential, Don challenges the way we think about talent, growth, and performance. He invites us to reimagine leadership not as something we perform, but something we build—by unblocking, unlocking, and unleashing the capacity that lies dormant in us all. His message is clear: potential isn’t random. It’s designed.

Meet Morgan Englund – TEDxArgyle St 2025 Speaker

What if the silence around trauma is costing first responders their lives?

Morgan Englund is a former actor turned firefighter/paramedic who spent 20 years on the front lines with the Los Angeles City Fire Department. After walking away from the job burnt out and disillusioned, Morgan began a new mission: to break the silence around first responder su***de and mental health. A single father and outspoken advocate, he now combines lived experience with tools like somatic therapy and trauma recovery to help others heal.

In his TEDx talk, The Epidemic of First Responder Su***de and What to Do About It, Morgan shares the stories no one wants to talk about—but urgently need to be heard. His message is a call to action: we can’t keep losing the people who save lives because we refuse to talk about what’s costing them theirs.

Meet Michelle Porter – TEDxArgyle St 2025 Speaker

What if real impact doesn’t come from waiting—but from starting with what you have?

Michelle Porter is a social entrepreneur and the CEO of Souls Harbour Rescue Mission, leading a multi-million dollar response to poverty, homelessness, and addiction across Nova Scotia. After selling everything she owned to launch two national missions, she spent years building from the ground up—serving over two million meals and helping hundreds overcome addiction with dignity and care.

Blending grassroots courage with executive vision, Michelle has disrupted the nonprofit world through radical generosity and bold service. In her TEDxArgyle St talk, The Power of One, she shares how ordinary people can build extraordinary change—when they stop waiting for permission and start where they are.

Meet Andre Anderson – TEDxArgyle St 2025 Speaker
What happens when the stories we’ve never learned finally come to light?

Andre Anderson is a 30 Under 30 Innovator, award-winning filmmaker, and 10th-generation African Nova Scotian community leader. As the founder of Anderson Films Inc., his work blends storytelling and strategy to center underrepresented voices and drive meaningful change. With over a decade of experience in business and film—and as a former candidate in both provincial and federal elections—Andre’s leadership reflects a deep commitment to equity, heritage, and the power of narrative.

At TEDxArgyle St 2025, Andre explores how restoring overlooked histories can empower communities, reshape education, and inspire pride in the next generation of African Nova Scotian learners. His message is clear: reclaiming the past is essential to shaping a more just and inclusive future.
