Love, the action, is a choice, perhaps the hardest choice to make. I know. Yet, it is the most important choice to make.
Choosing each day to give all our love, and to receive all the love others want to give, is how we create enduring success."
- Trish Kendall, Inspirational Keynote Speaker | Survivor | Advocate for Embracing Love.
“Trish, you were outstanding to work with, and your talk was incredible. Huge kudos to you for bringing so much compassion, wisdom, and kindness to this whole process. You inspired so many people and brought the crowd to their feet!”
“I frequently listen to TED talks. Most are very compelling and insightful. This was my first opportunity to attend an event personally. Trish’s presentation was not standard TED fare, but rather, a compelling retelling of a life experience that demonstrates the capacity of humans to recover from even the most dreadful of experiences. Most particularly, one that is tragically generated by an individual whom you both love and trust. A remarkable thought-provoking opportunity to learn what courage and fortitude can provide to each of us even in the most difficult of circumstances.”
