- Preethi Srinivasan believes that the key to success is not solid at any place, however, if people know how to evaluate, encounter and face challenges, the doors to success will start to open automatically. In the journey to attaining success, confidence is one characteristic that everyone struggles with at one point, but Preethi Srinivasan achieved this by trusting her abilities and by being comfortable in her own skin.
Preethi Srinivasan is the co-founder of Soulfree along with her mother, Mrs. Vijayalakshmi Srinivasan. Growing up as a national level swimmer and a state level cricket player, Preethi Srinivasan had a freak accident in Pondicherry, India. She completely lost her identity in the span of a split second from being a bright young student and sportsperson to a person confined to a wheelchair for over 14 years now.
With her family as her backbone, she reached a state of equipoise that allows her to smile despite desperately heart wrenching circumstances.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Beautifully said! A kidney warrior here. Most people are “compassion disabled” and that is the only true disability, yet it’s invisible and neither is it measured.

Perfect mind is more valuable than the perfect body..
You are an invaluable gift to the society
I identify with her, with her parents, the value of love and faith have unimaginable rewards, my quadriplegic son since he was 18 years old, we always love and support him, we transmit our faith to him, he believed in him and today he has two professions, is studying a third, has a wife and two daughters, is in charge of a department at the largest university in Ecuador, all human beings are valuable, but we need to feel loved, valued and accepted
NEP students welcome 🤗😂
What a story...penetrated right into me!!.
How nicely put...."Don't Pity Us. We don't want pity. We want encouragement. We want Love. We want unconditional friendship and help!!" .... 👏👏👏👏
Preethi👏👏👏 God bless you
Preethi.. You are the inspiration for millions of people including me...
Love and blessings
An absolutely fantastic and poignant speech from Preethi! I just wonder how she felt about the audience continuing to clap in between her talk. She speaks of how she wants to be treated the same as others and yet the audience clapped numerous times when she just spoke about her quotidian life (kind of inspiration p**n). Not that she doesn’t deserve the praise, she ABSOLUTELY does, but I think her speech goes beyond just her physical circumstances. It’s about her own instinctual resiliency. Idk.
தெய்வத்தால் ஆகாதெனினும் முயற்சி தன்மெய்
வருத்த கூலி தரும்
என்ற குறளுக்கு உதாரணமாக வாழும் ப்ரீதி அவர்களுக்கு எனது வாழ்த்துகள்
There is a fine rehab institution in Vellore for paraplegics and quadriplegics, built by Dr Mary Verghese who herself is a paraplegic, fondly known as Dr on wheels, started in the 1960s, only one of its kind on India, her famous book is called “ take my hands” I think lot of Indians do not know that there is a institution like this,
It is really worth visiting it. Indian government honored her with Padmashri award. It is all in google, Appreciate this young lady advocating for spinal injury victims.
Such an inspirational Lady ❤️💯
She makes us think how much do we take ourselves for granted. This is such an eye opening speech.
Great soul and great Parents..what a strong mind...salute her....shame on many of us that we keep crying for losing a job and for their betrayals...
I am sure you have definitely inspired many people who watched this video🙏🙏 such a blissful smile and self confidence is tremendous🙏
Salute to the SPIRIT within You and Unconditional love By Your Parents will touch many lives .💕💕💕💕🙏
Hats Off to your confidence and faith. I am inspired by you. Two take aways: 1. Nothing to fear about death. Live in the present moment. Here and Now. 2. Don't wait for others to take initiative. You bring in change. Beyond all just live your life amidst all adversities and challenges. ❤

Preethi Sreenivasan this was a really beautiful and moving talk. I very much support the idea of changing perspectives, and multi-perspective views overall. I went through your website and look forward to supporting you. Have you ever looked into strategy tools like theory of change or business model canvas? Perhaps they could help present a clearer picture. Warm regards!
And then there are people in the world who are depressed because they don't have the iPhone 13. Truly perspective changes everything
This is sooo inspirational….Myself a Multiple sclerosis patient …..wheelchair bound….want to do something in life….want to earn money….I am science graduate….PLEASE let me know if anyone having anything for me….Preethi you explained our feelings very well….God bless always….Thanks TEDx
Great speech by a great soul..
Really inspired
Needed to hear your talk today. I have been feeling down but your talk made me feel so much grateful for my own life
Preethi you are truly an inspiration for the world. May God's grace be always with you. Contentment comes from within and that's what makes a human being happy. No one can give you that it has to be realized by being grateful for the little things that you have. You have to be grateful that you are alive as so many do not see the dawn of the next day.
You are an inspiration ma'am.
Such a beautiful message. Truly Inspirational. I will support your cause in anyways possible..
