3-4 pieces linked together with the theme being the moment we do or do not make that pivotal decision that changes our situation. I want to look back at those decisions (even the wrong ones) from a position of strength and talk about how they've shaped me. I started writing and performing poetry 4 years ago. In my first year I made a national team. 2011 I won the individual haiku championship and 2012 came in 10th in the Women of the World Poetry Slam. I try to give a voice of strength to women typically described as victims. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
