TEDx Tralee

I did it!!!

Two weeks ago I had the honour of standing on the Red Dot and giving a TEDx talk as part of TEDx Tralee.

Walking out onto the stage felt surreal and also where I was meant to be- to be able to share from my soul, and speak about what I believe with every part of my being.

I spoke about the power of acknowledging trauma.

From my own experience of trauma as a young woman, how this showed up physically and how these shaped me going into medical school.

Then crucially, how we can help ourselves and each other to heal from trauma.

Healing is absolutely possible at any age, however long ago the trauma happened.

Massive thank you to everyone who helped make this happen; practical support and advice and moral support- I would not have got here without you!

I had no idea doing a TEDx talk would be quite such an emotional experience as well as the prep time!

I cannot wait to share the talk with you when the video comes out (soon!).
