Cuando hablo de trauma, hablo de, no hablo de experiencias trágicas, todos tenemos traumas más simples, más complejos, incluso es ...

My story begins. October 6th, 2021. I going into real estate. I hired a coach to teach me how to flip properties, fix them up, resell them. He doesn't live in my city, so I'm on a road trip. Highway, double lane, high speed at night, moonless, dark. I come around a curve slightly to the right downhill. And in the blink of an eye, everything changed. A 24year-old man is riding a pedal bike in the middle of my lane. Dark clothes, no reflectors. It happened so fast. I didn't have time to react. I couldn't swer ...

[Music] So, I'm kind of a quote nerd. I'm always getting that notification on my phone that my storage is almost full. And it is primarily because of screenshots of quotes that I've come across online.And if I'm being honest, pictures of my pug tank. The idea that something someone said decades or even centuries ago has the ability to impact our lives today is such a beautiful testament to the power of language. Three quotes in particular have most profoundly shaped my life that I would like to share with y ...

We didn't know that he was injured.That's what breaks your heart, too. someone you know, you care about, you work with every day is hurt and went t ...

Migué de México a este país con mi mamá y con mis dos hermanos menores a la edad de 16 años. No sabía inglés, no sabía las reglas de este país, no sabía dónde íbamos a vivir o cómo íbamos a sobrevivir sin nuestra familia y amigos.

Como la hija mayor, fingí estar bien. Lo único que sabía era que teníam ...

[Music] [Music] Six bombs at 6 a.m. They changed my life forever. The sound isn't like the movies. It's a a rumble that starts in your chest, travels through your bones, stops your heart. Your body knows before your mind does. This is real danger. That rumble in your chest. You know that feeling. Maybe it's when you got the phone call that changed everything. Maybe it's when you realize your world was about to fall apart. Your body knew before your mind did. But those bombs didn't break me. They revealed me ...

[Applause] I told you that the very experiences that breaks us are some of those things that could forge us into strong people. So by show of hand, who here has experienced one form of trauma or the other. Really.Okay.
