Why Suffering Gave Me Power | Scott Hamilton | TEDxNashville
Suffering is something most people fear, want to avoid and always consider a negative experience. I feel differently. In this talk I share that suffering is something that gives our lives power, meaning and direction, and also reveals who we are in the process. Scott Hamilton is a testicular cancer, and three time brain tumor survivor. He won an Olympic Gold Medal in the sport of figure skating in 1984. As a professional skater and entertainer, he founded the Stars On Ice Tour and spent 18 years touring North America. In 1999 he became an activist in cancer launching The Scott Hamilton CARES Initiative to help people better navigate the cancer journey. In 2014 CARES became a dedicated foundation raising much needed funds in support of research to advance treatment options that teach the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer. Scott lives in Nashville, TN with his wife Tracie and their four children. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
