Having what she believed was her "one" tough life event happen as a teenager, Adrian Wood shares how she was surprised to learn that life hands out more than one unexpected difficulty per person. By relating the unrelenting grief experienced from her big brother's death, to the birth and unexpected diagnosis of her special needs son over twenty years later, this deeply personal and moving talk shares the idea that embracing life's unexpected curveballs can also be the best gifts life gives us. Her blog, Tales of An Educated Debutante, has a massive following, and for good reason; her brutally honest approach to sharing "what is", will have listeners of this talk engaged from start to heart-warming finish.
