Noise can take many forms. Even in the relative quiet of Montana, where we may be able to escape physical noise, it is not always possible to still our minds and quiet the "chattering monkeys." As a depression survivor, I have learned first-hand the importance of paying careful attention to the thoughts and messages I allow free rein in my mind. The engineering concept of "signal-to-noise ratio" -- tune in what's good, filter out as much as possible of what's not -- is a useful metaphor for describing the process of emotional self-care.

David P. Otey, MA, MBA, brings a unique blend of education, eloquence, and experience to the platform. Armed with degrees in physics, communication, and broadcasting management, he pursued a successful career in television engineering, where he relished leading others to their own "ah-ha!" moments by taking challenging concepts and making them understandable. In 2007, his passion for learning propelled him to the head of a training effort that was unprecedented in the television industry, reaching over 10,000 broadcasting technicians in a three-year period. In 2011, Otey formed a new company, Speaking of Solutions, LLC, with a focus on helping individuals and organizations identify and move past resistance to change. With his own story -- technology expert reinvented as trainer/motivator -- as background, and a core message that is well-grounded and research-based, he has inspired audiences to examine their assumptions, filter out the noise, and embrace a growth mindset.

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)
