Big E is set to have his first TEDx Talk, with the speaking appearance set for this August. The WWE star posted to his Instagram account on Thursday to announce that he will be speaking at The Last Picture House in Davenport, Iowa about mental health.
Big E noted that he will be talking about how he overcame major depressive disorder and psychosis. The former WWE Champion has been open about his struggles with depression, and talked on Stephanie McMahon’s What’s Your Story? podcast in October of last year about how he was dealing with it during the height of the New Day’s success.
He wrote:
“Excited to announce that I’ll be delivering a @tedx_official talk in Davenport, IA, on August 12 at @thelastpichouse! How I Got Over Sharing my struggles with major depressive disorder and psychosis, and my eventual healing through medication, hospitalization, ECTs, talk therapy, and mindfulness/meditation.”
TEDx is an program for independent, self-organized events that bring TED Talk-like experiences.
