TEDx Talk

Creating Healing Through Connection & Vulnerability

NOTE FROM TED: This talk represents the speaker's personal experiences and business approach to grief counseling. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/tedx_content_guidelines.pdf "Sometimes you have to sit in the mud.... At times alone, and at times together." Dr. Kaplan will explain how this metaphor represents her belief that finding the courage to sit in the mud -- meaning, opening oneself to being vulnerable with ourselves and others -- opens doors to unlimited possibilities in every aspect of our lives. She will share how her personal journey of loss and healing propelled her into the professional field of childhood bereavement, and what she has learned along her journey. She wants to share the message that we create healing through connection and vulnerability.
