- In this inspiring and entertaining talk, Hayley takes us through her rise to become one of the greatest female hockey players of all time, and introduces us to the challenges she has faced as a woman in a male dominated sport. Hayley shares what it has taken for her to buck the status quo and carve her own path, challenging us to find the courage to blaze our own trails.
Hayley Wickenheiser is one of the best female hockey players in the world. A five-time Olympic medalist and national team member since age 15, Hayley’s passion for sport is matched by her desire to give back to the community - working with JumpStart, KidSport, Right to Play, Wickenheiser World Female Hockey Festival and dozens of organizations worldwide. Originally from Shaunavon, Saskatchewan and a graduate of the University of Calgary, Hayley’s numerous accolades include the Order of Canada, Canada’s Walk of Fame and The Globe and Mail’s “Power 50” influencers in sport. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
one of the most INSPIRING talks I ever seen or heard. it brought me to tears in such a positive way. CONGRATS ON SUCH A POSITIVE MESSAGE FOR EVERYONE!!!
Inspirational talk Hayley. Your goal to become a Doctor further emphasizes exactly what this talk is all about. Drive, determination and desire to become a player, not just in the hockey world. If you go at it like you did on the ice, there is no doubt you will obtain your goals! Good luck!
This is a crazy impressive talk! I am an occupational therapist by trade. I am also a 2x TEDx Talker. I know a fellow Canadian and Olympic gold medalist is now an occupational therapist and motivational speaker. Keep living your dreams!
By the way, I have a few of my own reasons to buck it with my career as an occupational therapist. First, I am an Asian man. The occupational therapy profession are mostly filled with white women. So that place me as an ethnic minority. Second, I have a disability in autism. For people with this disability, although there is now an increasing number, is still relatively low in this field. Third, I travel around internationally to not only attend conferences, but also present on a regular basis. This is very rare for newer practitioners to do. I chose to do it because I believe my message and views needed to be heard in the global community of occupational therapy... as peers like me with autism are not as open about their issues. Now that I have been through it, though, I can sure help other autistic OT's like myself to fulfill their maximum potential by giving guidance... because I pave the way to serve in leadership positions and explore opportunities that are out there but not many are taking advantage of.
