FEATURED TOPIC
When we tell our resilience story, two powerful things happen:
✨We deepen our own resilience when we share our resilience story generously with others so they can learn the lessons of our experience vicariously.
✨We role model vulnerability, encouraging ourselves and others to not be held hostage by the fear of being vulnerable, and instead, to step forward in vulnerability, breaking out of our vulnerability cages
featured keynote
The TEDx mission to discover and spread ideas that spark imagination, embrace possibility and catalyze impact. It is devoted to curiosity, reason, wonder and the pursuit of knowledge — without an agenda.
