To Love Is to Be Brave

When it comes to love, what does that really look like in relationships? Is it roses on Valentines Day, walks in the park or uncomplicated conversations that seem to have no conflict? Not for Kelly Corrigan, author and podcaster. She has experienced that love and family life often require extraordinary bravery, from navigating the daily challenges to surviving the unexpected crises. She has learned that love takes bravery – the bravery not to take action when a person just needs you to listen or can do it for themselves, not to leave when their pain hurts you to the core to stay, and to lean back and let go when you know a person is ready to figure things out on their own. In this TED talk, she offers more profound wisdom to help you focus in on what matters most.

I always believe that humor goes hand in hand with impact. You can "hear" things more fully when you are not tense. Kelly effortlessly combines difficult emotions with a brush of humor and so you are able to listen without fear.
