"Blurring the Boundaries"
1st Annual TEDxOkoboji Conference // 22 November 2019
It started with a thought, a vision, and a big “What if?” I have been an avid follower of TED Talks since shortly after the advent of their online postings in 2006. I have been inspired, encouraged, and challenged by TED Talks throughout my professional career. When I had this shared idea, I thought, “What if?” What if this idea is worth spreading? What if I can help inspire others as I have been inspired? And so, Ryan and I threw our hats into the ring, and that “What if?” became a reality. We became truly blessed to be chosen to speak at TEDxOkoboji.
What did that mean for me? That meant excitement and loads upon loads of nerves. With the support and affirmation of our idea, now comes the planning. How can we articulate this idea with our passion in a way that truly reaches those across our country? How can we exemplify what our idea of cross community collaboration truly looks like?
I am hopeful that we can show how even little steps towards this idea make a huge impact, and how this idea can truly change communities and education.
