"My brain is global." As a writer I can't imagine people all over the world watching/ reading/ hearing my thoughts. God, she's amazing!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for watching Brittney. :) #BTA324 Shine
The way she speaks clearly shows her amazing writing abilities. #extraordinary
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for watching. Definitely #extraordinary. :) Much love. #BTA324 Shine
Agreed. Her speech was so poetic.
Dartmouth must be a great school!!!
Sounds very Oprah like....
The way she speaks, draws you to her.
Thanks for your words.
I think this message is for me.
"Across the field of a difficult conversation lies peace." I needed this more than anything, I hate thinking I'm going to hurt someone's feelings.
"Work is no fun without play."
This is so true!
"Across the field of a difficult conversation lies peace." Here's to a new year of saying YES to life by conquering fear. Thank you Evan & Team 💕
Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts robert. :) Yes, we should conquer our fear - be #Brave and always #Believe. All the best to you! Much love. #BTA375 Shine
Amazing! I love the part when she said " when i am being successful in one part of my life, i am being a failure to another part of my life". I can relate to her as a working Mom. Shonda is very honest in all her words. Thanks Evan!!!
Rhea Dela Cruz I relate to that too ♡
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Rhea...agree, she just tell it as it is. :) #BTA324 Shine
I've learned that I have to follow my dreams, do whatever it takes to make it my reality.
powerful woman indeed
Awesome to know that you have learned those things from the video Daniel. :) Always #Believe in yourself and take action even one small step at a time to achieve your dreams! Much love. #BelieveNation #BTA324 Shine
“Why do we ever stop playing in the first place?” My favorite quote from her
Thanks for sharing :) #BTA886 Luka
The timeliness of finding this is phenomenal. I just had this conversation with my 86-year-old aunt, a very wise woman. She said, Lanie she calls me, don't forget to pick the apples while you still have the energy to do so,she said. She said this when I talked about how much I enjoy working part-time instead of full-time. Her intention was to make sure that I have what I need for my future many years hence. But I knew what Shonda knows: the fact that I play a little bit more enables me to love work more, be more, be a great mother- And most importantly the woman that I want to be and share with the world. Thank you Evan, thank you Shonda!
Great to know it came at the right time for you and you love what you do Lanie. :) More power to you! #Believe #BTA461 Shine
9. DON'T SHY AWAY FROM DIFFICULTIES: "Across the field of a difficult conversation lies peace."
Thanks for the comment and for watching Ivan. :) #BTA329 Shine
@@EvanCarmichael Thanks so much!
I like that she admitted that if your succeeding in one area of your life...you may be failing in another area of your life....or at least it feels that way....
universallyme Armstrong this is what i needed to hear
Number 3. You don't do it all. It's an illusion... Good for her for being honest!! And that - making mistakes, falling and failing equals living.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for watching Judith. :) Yes, we all have our limitations but we will still keep doing our best. Much love. #BTA324 Shine
"anyone that says he is perfect is lying"... very true
I had to share this to my "Women of Double Honour" group on Facebook. Thanks Evan ♡
Totally agree with that. :) Thanks for sharing it with your "Women of Double Honour" group on Facebook...I hope the members will all learn from it. Much love. #BelieveNation #BTA324 Shine
Evan Carmichael Sure they will.
Thank you, Evan Carmichael for creating this! It made me cry a little... I don't cry very often. As a business woman, writer, blogger, mom, wife, and philanthropist in my community... I can relate to her saying, " ..When I am successful in one part of my life... I am being a failure in another part of my life." I have learned that no matter what I do... I always feel guilty... guilty for taking the yoga class instead of being at my kid's school project. ...Even though the yoga is what keeps me healthy and sane... Keep shining Evan... looking forward to more of your creativity.
Thanks for sharing your feelings Sharon. Glad you can relate to it. Yes...I guess mothers will always feel that way but as also said by Jada Pinkett Smith (ua-cam.com/video/NmXk2qmNRW0/v-deo.html) it's also important to focus on YOU since when you are happy...your family will be happy as well. :) Always #Believe in yourself. Much love. #BTA343 Shine
"I told her how I felt, and she showed me who she was". no matter what the consequences of the hard conversation, she felt strong
Thanks for the comment and for watching Nathalie. :) #BTA453 Shine
Nathalie Gauvin such a powerful quote.
Omg! I can totally relate as single working mom of two amazing boys. I had a very hard time with trying to balance. #3. Great work Evan! Thanks!
Glad to know you can relate to it LaTrenda. :) All the best! #Believe #BTA324 Shine
This woman is truly awesome. I don't watch television, so I never heard of her before now. Despite that, still I notice the creativity of the Shonaland creator. She is alive with character. I think she would excel as a stage actress. Wow, I mean, wow. I'm really blown away, and she's not even acting right now, she's simply giving a public speech. Yet, it's as if she's in character. Look at the audience. They are spellbound, hanging on to each word released from her colorful lips. She definitely has taken possession of what belongs to her like a BOSS. Bravo! "Says yes to what scares you".
Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts For Gentlemen. :) #BelieveNation #BTA372 Shine
"Work doesn't work without play"
I remember requesting this,! "Say yes, to things that scare you."
"if I am being successful in one part of my life, I am almost absolutely failing in another."
that hit me hard! It's nice to know that we can't do it all. To do one thing is to give up another, but there is a balance. Shonda seems to have that balance and her kids will be better for it. I have more respect for her, not just because she wrote my favorite TV drama of all time, "Grey's Anatomy," but also as a person and model of success. thanks for posting this man!
Great to know you resonated with it and Shonda inspires you. :) #Believe #BTA492 Shine
For my journey, the most inspiring things that she said is "I have a global brain." My brain works that same way and I am constantly told that I can''t fix the whole world, yet to me, everything is connected. What I do affects everything else. So, I always look to see the chain reaction of all I do and say. Thank you Shonda for finally letting me know that I am no just crazy!
Glad you can relate to her Martha. :) Always #Believe in yourself! #BTA339 Shine
"The more I play the happier I am... the freer my mind become... the better I work"
Thanks for posting your comment Sharon. :) #BTA407 Shine
Shonda Rhimes is inspirational. She will definitely cause others to find the kind of success that they never thought was even possible.

"Love's Hum..." Powerful!!!

Thanks for sharing that dejonna. :) #BTA357 Shine

Jahnes love. This was great. I love how she talks about the hum inside of you. And she said my most favorite phrase "it's just love...". And my favorite rule is #9 Don't shy away from difficulties". Blessed love.
"Work is not work without play." Shonda Rhimes.
Love her.

So inspiring to hear from a fellow single mom (of 3 kids), to hear about her weaknesses and strengths, and how she is great role model to her kids. Thank you for this, Evan.

Number 2 was deep to me. Thanks for this upload. I love Shonda ❤
Glad to know you can relate to it fernika. :) Thanks for the comment and for watching! Much love. #BTA324 Shine
"And it returned, the hum was quiet, and I realized, the hum wasn't success or from being a titan, the hum was love" I cried like a bitch ;-; she is so inspiring the way she overcame her fears, and she had to have some of her friends come up to her and tell her what ws up. That's happened to all of us, I think, where someone you really love an trust is like "look i known you a long time, you got some issues" and they help us through that difficult conversation, she's right. there is peace on the other side.
Se is inspiring indeed. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Jessy. :) #Believe #BTA427 Shine
Love #1, take the chance on yourself, Love #9 as you change people in your life will change, K.I.M. (Keep It Moving), love #10. Say yes to yourself #TeachTrainEducate

Happy to know that it resonated with you. 😊 #Believe - Feb
This was so amazing. The whole video inspired me!! I had to watch it again.
Yay! So awesome to know it inspired you MilliciaB. :) Much love. #BelieveNation #BTA324 Shine
I love all of her comments, however I think my favorite is, "Don't shy away from difficulties" because we are still afraid as we try to avoid it. At work I have to do webinars, I was so nervous that I was horrible on the firs webinar. I have to do another one next week, don't laugh but they are only 5 minutes long. I have decided Iam going to do these webinars no matter what, because I must conquer this 5 minutes of fear. Therefore this is my favorite.
Debessence G You could do it! 🙌🏼
Thanks Robert, I appreciate your words of encouragement.
Just wanted to say Thank You for the Shonda Rhimes TED talk.
Thanks for the support and for watching. 😊 #Believe - Feb
Shes amazing. How many shows can she do by the end. A hero of mine.

When you succeed in one are of your life, you might be failing in another area. This made me recognize my fails and emphasize the areas that I am truly striving in...

Giving self permission to play more and work with joy. Very inspiring way to look at the fullness of the quality of life.
this was from her Ted Talk and I'll remember it forever- "If the song of my heart ceases to play, can I survive in the silence?"
Thank you for sharing and for watching Alexandra. 😊 #Believe - Feb

Glad to know the videos are helpful to you Carlos. :) Thank you very much for the appreciation and for recommending it to others. :) Much love. #Believe #BTA465 Shine
Number 3 was powerful. She kept it real and it totally makes sense now. "If you are succeeding in one area then you are failing in another. I felt the same...Trying to do #dadlife and #djlife perfectly. I'm just one person. So not possible.
What she said at 1:49 is a WORD! Right now I'm working several jobs to pay the bills so I can cover my acting classes/intensive costs, headshots, etc.
Hope you succeed in becoming an actress! :) #BTA1325 Luka

"you can't help but strive for greatness when you hear the humm"
Thanks for the comment and for watching. :) #BTA386 Shine
You don't lose people but for a moment when they 'feel' a new paradigm coming from someone who's conceded. Eventually, they come around to collaborating, arguing momentarily or helping you out with fixing the dilemma.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and for watching. 😊 #Believe - Feb
I love Shonda! She is so brilliant! The last rule.. I understand it, I am a workaholic, programmer in other people's eyes. They tell me 'oh lucky you, you have discipline and you like working', that sounds so cold but no it is not true! I am a very passionate person, I love that thrill or 'hum' when I solve something that was bugging me for 2 whole days, I feel powerful! But sometimes I do get stuck and I lose that drive, and it is because I always forget to play... Thank you Shonda for the speech! I will make up my law for playing :)
Glad you can relate to it and that you will find also find time to play Kristina. :) Keep your passion alive and always #Believe! #BTA330 Shine
“Whenever you see me somewhere succeeding in one area of my life, that almost certainly means I am failing in another area of my life.” She’s so right!

"Work doesn't work without play."
Lesson #3 helped me
🌸"I told her how I felt and she told me who she was"..
"Across the field of a difficult conversation lies peace" #Unmask
#Superpower
Thank you for sharing :) #BTA911 Luka
alot of ppl seem to relate to number 3 - feeling like you're messing up in one area when your attention is on another - this can be dream job/side gig/paying your dues as much as it can be about children/working parent. Trying to keep multiple occupational plates spinning at the same time, sometimes I feel like none of it is good enough and I'm doing about 50% on each. So I'm not sure what she said in #3 "Be Fulfilled" - how to address that, but I'm available to more insight on it :)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Sandry. Yes, most of us could relate to what she said as it's hard to find balance but what is important is we are doing our best. Perhaps this video would be helpful: ua-cam.com/video/qeZB8gD7AYw/v-deo.html & ua-cam.com/video/pPsACWEpwH8/v-deo.html Always #Believe in yourself. :) #BTA445 Shine
