After facing an extended hospital stay and full-on hemispheric paralysis with much cognitive loss, I have met 1,745 days of determining, morning, noon, and night, 8 days a week, to take up the battle to recover fully and to never give up. I come to TEDxIthaca College to share insights about the power of determination in recovery and in life. As a runner, cyclist, triathlete, and as a mother to two and a friend/ family member to many, I refuse to let the story of my life become one of despair and tragedy. Rather, I insist that it become a story of determination, inspiration and achievement. Those are some ideas worth sharing.

Amelia is a Higher Education Student Services professional, having worked in Residence Life at both IC and Cornell over 17 years. At each campus, she created a diversity-issues theater troupe, bringing a message of inclusion and engagement across difference each year on campus through performances and discussions, the student troupe persists at Cornell today and reaches 3,000 new students each August. Amelia is a stroke survivor, a mother, a wife, and a fighter.

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)
