Sandra Oh Inspires Dartmouth Graduates with Message of Kindness and Resilience

Hanover, NH – Actress Sandra Oh delivered a poignant commencement address to Dartmouth College's Class of 2025, sharing profound insights on navigating life's challenges with kindness and inner strength. Speaking from the podium, Oh reflected on her demanding decade playing Cristina Yang on 'Grey's Anatomy,' a period she described as 'one of the most challenging decades of my life.' Oh candidly spoke about the overwhelming schedule and the personal toll it took, stating, 'The relentless schedule was completely overwhelming, and I got sick.' She emphasized a crucial lesson learned: 'You can’t ghost depression, and you can’t outsource a panic attack.' Her journey towards stability began when she 'looked inside,' realizing that attempting to control external circumstances only worsened her feelings. The Emmy-nominated actress urged graduates to embrace discomfort and vulnerability. 'When I stopped trying to bend things to my will and stayed open to my discomfort, a new thing came through,' she explained. Oh defined kindness not as weakness, but as a powerful force encompassing 'courage, respect, and compassion,' forming 'the foundation for a lasting strength.' She encouraged the graduating class to approach future heartbreaks and difficulties with tenderness, asserting, 'Can you hold your heartbreak with tenderness and give it your loving attention? This is kindness.' Her message resonated deeply, offering a compass for the graduates' future endeavors.
