006: I Told My Story on a TEDx Stage




How Does She Do It? | Practical Insight & Honest Perspective on Being Grown show

Summary: I had the pleasure of speaking at TEDxVillanovaU on Friday, October 23, 2015.  I shared the stage with 9 other people who talked about topics including racial bias, stories of Black women who lived prior to Emancipation, biogas, and caregiving for family as they age.  I am happy I didn’t miss out on this opportunity and was able to be part of a larger community of people who took the risk to share their idea worth spreading.  And I looked cute!<br> Here are (only) 5 lessons I took from the experience:<br> <br> * Courage comes after you do the thing you are afraid of.<br> * The energy you put forth is the energy you receive.<br> * It is okay to want support and affirmation for others.<br> * Learn to accept compliments and feedback without qualification<br> * There is Value in Vulnerability.<br> <br> If you have a question you would like answered on the show, a topic suggestion, or feedback, please send an <a href="http://www.howdoesshedoitpodcast.com/contact/">email</a> to tiffany@howdoesshedoitpodcast.com.<br> And don’t forget to share, rate, and review!<br> Follow me on twitter <a href="http://www.twitter.com/tiffsouth">@tiffsouth</a> and the show <a href="http://www.twitter.com/howdoes_shedoit">@howdoes_shedoit</a>.<br>
