My Month of Silence | Donna Sanchez | TEDxDayton

What would it be like to go thirty days without speaking? Without using music, podcasts, and social media to distract yourself and break the silence? What started as a somewhat joking New Years Eve resolution quickly became a challenging and life changing experience for Donna. In a moving and personal talk, Donna shares the deep insights she discovered during her month of silence, and reveals how it changed her life, her family, and her marriage forever as a result. Donna Sanchez is a writer, speaker, caregiver, President of her local Toastmasters club, Celebrate Recovery leader, and ADHD advocate. She passionately pursues personal growth and seeks to inspire others to embrace both weaknesses and strengths in order to use them to make the world a better place. All her life, Donna has strived to help and better understand those around her through words and actions. Until her month-long challenge, she never realized how much her talking prevented effective communication and how connected we can become with both ourselves and others through silence. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
