The Positive Side of Taking Risks – and TEDx

October 01, 2023

My son and I attended a TEDx yesterday, and I found a theme running through most of the presentations – the importance of taking risks. Have you ever gone to a TEDx?  You’ve probably watched a TED talk on their website or on your TV.  They are on YouTube as well.  My favorite is the one by Sir Ken Robinson titled “Do Schools Kill Creativity?


But back to yesterday and the theme.  The presenters weren’t talking about education, but I could see how so much of what they shared was applicable to our lives as educators and parents.  There were some definitely genius connections made!


Listen in to hear about a few of the presentations and see how they can connect to your life!



Would you like more information about the presentations I mentioned?  We attended the TEDx Temecula on September 30, 2023.  The speakers I mentioned are Dr. Smita Malhotra, Taylor Cole, and Connie Stopher.  It will take a couple of months for the recordings to be posted on YouTube but be sure to check for them!  The presentations were great!
