Almost 4 years later and this TED talk is still the one that changed my life. I literally would have gone down a different trajectory if I had not watched this, met Mikki in real life on a private yacht in Croatia for her birthday, and soaked in the wisdom of the 30 other women on that boat. They inspired me into entrepreneurship. They bravely told their vulnerable stories and made me realize that my perfectly imperfect journey was ok. They gave me resiliency. Thank you Mikki!
This presentation is one of the best TED Talks I've ever seen! Mikki is the real deal - authentic, genuine, straightforward, and always, always so full of heart. Plus, since I've known Mikki for over 15 years, I have seen that THIS is how she truly lives her life. How many speakers can say that they walk their talk? Well, Mikki does!
What a beautiful speech Mikki! I am so sorry for your huge loss but I am so happy that you are living your dreams! I am also doing the same - travel and art (painting) are my passions and I take advantage of the opportunity to do so when I can. You are a true inspiration - sending you much love and light! Kavita
Mikki, as well as I have gotten to know you, you constantly AMAZE me -- what a gift to this world you and your spirit are! I am HONORED to be your friend.
It’s now my time to get the splinters going the same direction in my life story. It’s my time to start dreaming once again. It’s not too late to go after the dreams and experience them. I lost the courage to go after my dreams after devastation in my life story. Letting go of the past and jumping into my current life is my next best step to take. Thanks for the “kick in the pants.” I needed that!
Mikki you are an inspirational person and speaker! I was so inspired listening to you today that I decided to apply living my life starting today as if it were all bucket lists...everything I do and experience will be just that. Thank you!

I can’t count how many times I’ve listened to this speech. I cry. Every. Single. Time. I am Mikki’s Williams’ number one fan!!!
The most captivating and touching TED talk I have ever listened to.
