TEDx
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Shelley, you are a beautiful woman. Inspirational to say the least.
boy I love testimonies like this I thought I had it bad with the disability I have is minor to compare what she went through I just wish was longer then it was as she was speaking thank you for your testimony Reverend James
My disability is severe but not readily visible but I love watching her and others talk about theirs I can relate still and it's inspiring
You are an absolutely stunning woman. Thank you for your inspiration.
This is a great, great talk. Instantly shared to my Facebook (34 year old male with Spina Bifida L5-S1)
what a fighter! awesome woman
Abled body people are afraid of what they don't understand. You help open the door to understanding. In our society as in all societies, beauty is culturally dependent. Unfortunately in our society, advertising media determines ours by promising an ideal that people, particularly women cannot attain, with or without disability.
This was great to watch, thank you!
Every creature of God, made or formed by His divine hands, is BEAUTIFUL in it's own special way, because He makes all things for a glorious purpose, and with a glorious plan for each one. Praise to God the LORD for all that He has made!

Hi thank you for your video different prospective i would liek to speack with you, i am doing a resarhc abotu those topics
There is nothing beautiful about disability, this is such nonsense. It is a tragedy. We tell ourselves these things to cope, which is understandable, but it should not be framed as beautiful.
