is living proof that it is never too late to follow your dreams. After 12 years as an elementary school teacher, Kate left the classroom and life, as she knew it, behind. She sold all her belongings and possessions, packed up her dog and moved to Toronto to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming an actress. In this inspirational talk, Kate shares her journey and the many lessons she has learned as a result of taking her biggest leap of faith. Little did she know that making this change in her life would actually change her life.And There I Was: A Tale About Chasing Dreams & Beginning Again - Розваги
I am an artist. I always have been. I took those long detours, did what everybody else wanted me to do. The day I started doing what I wanted to do, I lost most of my family and relationships. My kids are still with me they encourage me and they love me. I am 48 years old, and I just finished my first commissioned painting. I also have Progressive blindness. No one, including me, thought I could pick up art again. I will continue painting and drawing until I'm completely blind, and I might even continue after. Thank you UA-cam for sending me these encouraging TED Talks.
I am glad that you reconnected with what you truly wanted to do.
you could make a living off of making paintings as a blind person especially. that would make them one of a kind
@@Feminazi1dc To be honest, I don’t know if I would get the same satisfaction painting without being able to enjoy the outcome. I also recently learned that I am autistic. I would still like to create no matter what, and I have taken up jewelry sculpture, To transition to something tactile. I love art and I will always do some form of it. Thank you for your kind words❤️
Six years after your TEDx talk and I see you have 63 acting credits in IMDb along with credits in other areas. GOOD JOB! : )
Ms. Drummond. My grade 4 teacher. I don't know if you'll see this, but I'm 21 now. Pretty cool to watch this video. Time flies, looks like you've been making the most of it. Wish you all the best
- Josh
Thank you Josh! So good to see you here! I remember you as if it was yesterday. Super proud of you still, no doubt.
Kate Drummond You are too brave to achieve your dream after work for 12 years in teaching , it is adventure and miracle .My greeting for you miss Kate .
So inspiring. Sometimes it's not just the teacher who inspires us. also students can :) I would say @josh you're awesome!!
@@katedrummond926 The reason why we go into the classroom in the first place - to impact lives and shape young minds.
That's so cute. I use to teach 4th grades (and kindergarten). My favorite grade. Teaching is the best job in the world. Too bad the pay is low.
I can't express how elated it made me to Google your name, 6 years after this video was posted, and see "Kate Drummond; Film Actress."
Me too xo
Wao this video came to me at the right moment. Thanks. I Google her too.😅😂
I am 65 y.old. I'm starting a singing career with the same zest & enthusiasm I had when I started my professional life @22 y.o! I say:
GO FOR IT! BUILD A LEGACY! IT IS NEVER TOO LATE! ONLY WHEN THE LORD SAYS SO, HIMSELF!
I'm 56 years old and only recently realised I love writing songs and would love to be a singer-songwriter. I have no idea why it took me this long to realise this. But I've started to put my songs with homemade videos on UA-cam on my own channel. I've no idea where this path will lead (if anywhere) but I am being absolutely truthful to myself, and it feels good. I feel a strong kindred spirit with all the people here commenting on this talk.
congratulations!
Amazing - you just described my life. Had a passion at school. Was told I wasn't allowed to follow it. Did other jobs well and enjoyed it, But at age 49 left the company where I was managing director and started following my school passion.
I know myself much better now and can really say I am happy. Sometimes I might work 18 hours a day (or more) for 8 to 10 days in a row, but I get back to my home thinking "I didn't work, I had fun". I now have more time for myself and am loving life.
Almost took 50 years for me to find myself, but it proves - "It's never too late"
Thanks TEDx for the video and Kate Drummond for you talk. Loved it.
Wow. Congratulations!!! :)
I will be showing this clip to some family members who still question why I left a very well paying job and followed my passion. Not that I feel I need to convince them. If they don't understand and don't care how good it has all been for me - then that's their problem, But hopefully they might understand or learn from it.
All the best and keep following the passion. Everything happens for a reason and it all works out in the end.
I'll be sending good thoughts and vibes your way, my friend! ;)
Francois Ashton That is so awesome and beautiful to hear and inspiring. Thank you for your encouraging words.
Thank you for sharing.
I was just perusing through videos about following your dreams, and I ran across this one. It gave me chills!! I have been teaching for 12 years... I am 35... and I just made the decision, about three weeks ago, to quit my job and follow my dreams!! I want to be a truck driver. It is all I think about, and I've been to school for it already. I decided to stop feeling miserable, and do something about it. You are so right about that feeling in the pit of your stomach. Thank you for your encouraging words, and I wish you well on your journey!!
Such an interesting dream! You go for it!
So how is it now ???
I just saw this!!!!!!! I’m so happy for you and hope you are still living your dream 💕
Dear cate
I have tears in my eyes .
Love you from India
"I was terrified to discover that I was just putting in time in my life." Such a powerful statement that probably lead to her wake up call. We shouldn't just be "doing time" we should be Living our best lives. I thoroughly enjoyed this talk and absorbed a lot of the advice and wisdom you shared. Feeling grateful. Thank you Kate Drummond.
OMG, this completely resonates with me. I'm turning 34 this year and I decided last year to quit my job and to find a career on marketing or product development. 8 months now, what I found is that I get to know myself better and I wanted to be in the green Industry(specifically textile or plastic that's biodegradable or recycled) just unsure of what role should I play. Thanks for sharing your story Kate!
looking for marketing person, ping xprssvisadc gmail
Yes, ping xpressvisadc gmail, send cv. thanks
Wow Kate, I for the 1st time heard someone tell my exact story. After spending my life looking for more money, better title, bigger house, more friends, and acceptance of my Mother still at 50 yrs old. I spent my whole life being a serial relationship person after being thrown out after yrs of abuse at 14 yrs old to be homeless and for 35 yrs afraid that I needed someone to survive, yet so fearful of abandonment and rejection at the same time. Well, I didn't choose as you did, but my past came back on me with a vengeance that tore my life apart due to PTSD and I can say it IS the best thing that ever happened to me!!! It put an instant hold on my life, isolated me for 6 yrs, lost everything and now have an all I can afford 1 bedroom apartment from a 3 bedroom house, and a 12 year old car. The only person I dated for the last almost 4 yrs is me, and sitting with myself at dinner or in a movie and volunteering a lot with this new found time I have. I've learned I'm not a "loner", I'm introverted and I started reading books which I haven't done since dropping out of 7th grade to survive, and I've read well over 100 in a year on sooo many different topics and I am very creative and starting writing ideas for books and even talked to a New York's best selling author personally several times for tips and advice. Im a damn good writer Kate, and I never would've known if I didn't become isolated directly from my past, the worst things I always thought happened to me, ha 've now ended up being the sole cause of my knowing exactly who I am and I'm a caring, empathetic, giving, incredibly strong man with integrity in the biggest sense. Thank you soooo much for this video, you are an incredible woman Kate and I will be sharing this with many people. I hope you actually read these cuz you've touched me and I want my story to do the same for you.
Thank you so much Kate Drummond
I am here right now . 51 letting my business, which I love, go and packing up to move to another province and going back to school to do what i have always wanted to do...
Janet good on you. Can I ask what is it that you’re doing?
I teach at a prison - and I LOVE it. I spent 23 years in the Army and that was cool too. But I love what I do right now! I am glad for Kate and her dreams!
Wonderful Ms.Drummond. Inspiring.
I appreciate what she says. I really do. I chased my dream and it didn't work out well at all. And truthfully I worked it all out as best as I could and I found my dream to in reality be a nightmare. So I had to go back to doing what I did before. And I can tell you the truth.... I REALLY REALLY REALLY appreciate the job I was desperate to get away from before. I have an expected paycheck. I don't spend my life trying to make a living. I don't spend my life trying to live out a fantastical dream. My life is ordinary now. And I wouldn't have it differently. The years spent chasing my dream damaged me in ways I can barely put into words. If you are in doubt at all about chasing your dream... don't give up what you have to attempt to make it work. It doesn't have to be all or nothing. Take baby steps. Get sound advice. Don't throw caution to the wind. Build slow. Don't be fantastical. Be practical. A dream won't pay a mortgage. It's really hard to be homeless with a dream.
What was your attempted dream?
I don't agree with this perspective. You don't even need a mortgage/house, you can live in cheap apartments with roommates. I think some people are just not willing to give up certain things, which to me means they're not "following their dream" but rather something that doesn't exist. Some sort of vision that they believe will make everything right. It's not how it works. Following your dream is not a "solution", but a way of being. The moment you decide on your dream is the moment you start LIVING it rather than following it. It's difficult and there is no end goal where you just go "I did it, that's it"... no, it's a lifelong commitment.
It's a gamble. Not everyone needs the comfort of life. Not everyone will be successful chasing their dream. For every one person successful, there are untold numbers of failures. One of the reason she is the invited speaker...inspirational and unique message.
I NEVER knew what I wanted to do with my life and I STILL don't know ! ! !
I'm 51 ! ! ! ! !
Omg
roaring, laughing, that's most of us. Great comment.
I'm 47 and in the same damn boat as you. But at least I've learned so many things on a personal level and they may eventually be useful for a next life.
acknowledging a change it;s the first step
In order to know what to do with your life and be happy, start first to KNOW YOURSELF then things will come to you. To give you an example in my case I didn't know either what to do with my life and one thing that help me was reading books that I find interesting and autobiographies of that other people that had similarities with my life. And I found so many similarities, like they ware describing me and learn many things that they had learn through they hole life in one-two months.
As someone who attended 8 different schools by the end of high school, this hit home. I've suffered from severe ADHD and was always told to just focus, stop bouncing my leg, stop looking around. I always felt like the outcast. Until I found myself. Glad I clicked this Ted talk.
I purposely searched this video to watch it a second time after having felt so inspired the first time. At 37, I am finally finding the strength to follow my actual dream of writing. 💗 I can resonate so much, right down to a similar conversation with one of my students asking why I don't follow my dream, to feeling like I lost everything. God Bless you Kate, and congrats on the recent CSA🙌
This presentation was really good! I can see her being a great actress.
I am ABSOLUTELY at that fork right now. I have decided that I desperately want to go back to school and study marine biology. My undergraduate degree is in graphic design. I work at a restaurant. The thought of getting accepted into a good program, being able to handle the difficult curriculum and afford it seems almost insurmountable. This would be my dream and I don't want fear of failure to control me.
Ashton Daley >>> fear of failure has controled me!!! I feel it is all too much for me today so I just let go and I did not go to see my advisor eventhough I am the one that arranged for the appointment. I did not go to do three big assignments due. I feel so sick from overwhelmth and swampeness and then the winter started and I feel sick to my stomach from all the things of my current life that I cannot cope with healthly at the moment. I rather stay in the bed!!! I do not want to be seen in buses or on the road or by people I feel like they can all see how much I am such a giver up and not a fighter and wonder why I think I should not fight when they are all out there fighting for their lives! Instead of all that I am here at a relative's place where I stay and everyone went to do what they have to do and here I am in the bed listening to your powerful talk. I am 33 and have nothing to show for it. At least you moved from one thing into another thing but for me no one or I cannot say oh I am abandoning this to go to that. At least for your previous life until age 35 you and others had no doubt that you are capable of something and can make your own living and impact the world for the better. But people in my situation though, what to think and what to do? Feels like it has been 33 years of wasting and playing around with people's resources, time, money, patience and love. Ay! Definetely do not know how to handle myself and how to go from here? Wonder what is my pilot light? This share will sound dark, desperate and sad but there is this one thing: in the 33 years; I got this one thing! This amazing thing; somewhere during the 33 year journey Jesus Christ/Yeshua Hamashiach called me to get personal and also caused me to hear him and to answer yes. I am still a sinner perhaps even all this giving up way of life is sin I do not know but if nothing at all if I never get to where I know how and can adequately care for myself and others and if I never achieve the level of fending for myself and others if I never find satisfaction, pride, respect and peace in myself hence it overflowing from within to the outside so that others may see, feel and know all those things about me; I will continue breathing each new breath I get and I will continue to admire and hold unto that one thing that I do have and that being The Lord Jesus Christ/Yeshua Hamashiach and His giving over his life for me to have eternal life. Everything else I have to work for and may not be successful at it; but my eternal future; a peaceful and happy life in the everlasting future has already been spoken for. It has already been planned for and granted and even the grace to accept that gift was given unto me. So no matter and regardless of how my past days on eart look like, or how my current days on earth are looking, or even what my future days on earth look like it does not end there. There is more and I am thankful. Thank you each one for your posts and the speaker for her talk and life in general for its experience. I wish you well; I wish for you that it will be much better and much more than you imagined. I love you:)
Ashton Daley I'm just now seeing this comment. I do not know where are right now on your journey but you will conquer your fears. Even if you fail a test or you meet some road blocks, you are not a failure. Much props to you for going back to school and fulfilling your dreams.
This is 3 years too late but my situation is very similar to yours (although I'm actually working as a graphic designer). Update: I applied to a university and am going to get my second bachelors next fall.
Thank you Kate Drummond for sharing your fabulous story on your leap of faith!!!
Sending good vibes to you Kate and also to everyone on this journey as we courageously take our leap of faith to do that which makes our hearts sing!!! 💓
Very interesting fact you have explained from your life. I am capturing the statement "This world is Good because you are in"
I'm not crying you are 😢
I really needed this...I am 35 and need a new start
I'm 47 years old and recently quit my cleaning jobs to pursue a career. I have run into all sorts of opposition but that just makes me more determined to knowing that I am on My path, not theirs. Thank you for the video. Awesome.
good luck steve!
Kate, your storytelling skills are next level! I was transported to your scenes and moved by your emotion. Keep doing you!
this is absolutely the most inspiring speech that i ever see in TED, im walking on my own way also, its difficult but im sure it will be worth it! im sure she will be the best cheer leader for me as well
Thank you Kate..
you are the most precious Kate i've ever seen on youtube ...
This talk really resonated with me because I took the leap of faith to rediscover my dream. Before watching this video, I had my near-death experience at a point in my life when things were seemingly going well. Your experience is merely validation that I took the right path. Thanks for sharing!
This is something big, Kate. Thanks for sharing your story, may there be progress, may the dreams come true.
Very inspiring talk. Thank you, Kate. Your eyes glow with genuineness and love for life. ♡
Kate your words are so powerful,thank you for telling your life story,you just help me a lot to think what i really need for myself,me not for my family, just me,to know what i need to make myself better person,happy,and satisfied.
I love getting messages like this! Sending love and courage to you xo
@@katedrummond1645 Kate,
I just watched you video of Ted talk for the first time and it really resonated with me. I'm in a very similar situation you were in before you left your teaching job. To see that all these years after that video was posted you've been able to reach your goal of being in films is very inspiring. I've never reached out like this before, but again i was very touched by your video.
Thank you so much ms. Drummond. Your speech is just what I needed now I feel so energized after listening to you. A few years ago I quit a good paying with benefits trying to build a business from the ground up. In the process I’ve lost every material possessions and some respect but my passion is very much alive now ms Drummond you’re my Energizer Bunny
Thank you. I am on this journey, and yes it is scary, I am not going to give up on me. I like me, a lot! The self validation is not all there yet, but just having someone say that is what I needed to hear. Year over year since this started I have grown in my journey and had my set backs. I am in one now trying to find my way out of it. There are lots of tears but I have found that with every setback is a time to stop and reanalyze that road . Because this is my chosen road now. Thank you Kate for your words of wisdom and strength.
You are a beautiful soul! Thank you for sharing your brave journey!
Thank you sister for sharing your story!!! It is when we’re our most vulnerable, showing our warts and all that we’re most powerful, I’m learning this more and more as I watch courages souls as yourself go off the paved path and and define a new path for themselves!! I applaud you and tip my hat off to you!! You’re an inspiration, Thank you!!!🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️🌺
Damn this the realest Ted talk I’ve heard. Only people who have followed their dreams and have learned that their end goal was always just a detour to what there destiny was truly meant to be will understand her talk
Just love her energy. She's so enthusiastic! Keep learning Kate. See you soon featured in a awesome film!
I had to listen to this two times in a row. So good! Thank you!
What a beautiful and soulful and loving way to present your story and encourage positiveness towards the audience, there is nothing better than not being afraid to be yourself and to be real, true and an honest someone in the world, enjoyed this Thankyou for being real x
Your message could not have come at a better time! You're such an inspiration!
Man, I am touched!
I just had my "fork"! and guess what, the things that hurt the most are the words people around me was saying to me trying to convince me to take the easy roud!
All the best everyone, live your life to the fullest!
Thank you! That made me cry. I am trying to make my dream come true but it is difficult sometimes, listening to you gave me the courage that I need to stay in my way.
I have watched this every day for a week!! Thank you for sharing your story.
This hits home. You are an amazing, courageous woman. I needed to hear this.
OMGosh! This is EXACTLY MY story!!!! What an inspiration! So glad I found this! THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. I am touched and will never forget your testimony.
Wish you all the best Captain.
And to you too, Captain ;)
That was awesome Kate!! I'm proud of you for taking that leap!! It's so awesome seeing you in Wynonna Earp!! I hope to see you again in something else. My stepdad was a math teacher. I really respect teachers. And most of them don't get the respect they deserve! Thank you for doing this Ted talk. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours!!
Kate tearing up twice is truly authentic. Not like too composed speeches. Inspiring for all. Thumbs up.
Just loved this talk! Glad you veered away from school so I could hear your talk. They were lucky to have you, but we're all the richer for you taking this journey. I'd love to have that success--where I can live a day and be true to myself.
I understand that fear feeling & bouts of depression so well! Thanks Kate for sharing! I am at the fork right now. I quit the job I've been doing for 6 years last May, then spent time travelling in Asia & Europe for almost a year. Now it is March and I'm about to go back to reality. My life saving is running low, so I have to start working soon to support myself. The thing is, I haven't figure out what it is I want to do yet. I have some interests, but absolutely no experience and no clue how to get there, no support from family, it is terrifying! I am 32 now and yes, I am trying hard everyday.
What an incredibly inspiring speech. I absolutely loved it. Thank you.
Hey Kate you are amazing and I like your inspirational speech. I think I embark my journey to that unpredictable path because I just left my old life and starting preparation for my new life to achieve my dreams. I have completed my masters 7 years ago and i did many jobs but now I left all that things and start to chasing my dreams just like you. So sometimes I feel that fear what you have felt about taking decision. I hope I'll get success in my new journey.
I started my own business at the age of 52. I should have started one years before, because every employer I had, had completely take me for granted. I was not born to work for someone else. I flourished little by little building up my own little successful business. I am retired now living in my 5 acre forest in the mountains. I still have way too many hobbies and dreams to ever finish, but I do whatever I want every day. That, to me, is success.
When she said "I wanna be there when you guys come to your fork in the road. I want to be your cheerleader", I got teary-eyed. Having someone who'd support you that way is just amazing.
You are amazing! Thankyou so much for this speech! Good on you for taking the risk in order to find your true self💕 Despite what other people have to say. It’s our journey not theirs. This is 💯 inspiration for me 🌟
Such a powerful n inspiring talk... thank you so much !!
Oh my ! No words can describe how Amazing this young woman is .
She is a blessing !
Thank you young lady !
Thank you so much for sharing in this story with me. x
Yes yes.! You hv.awaken to your true authentic self.!! Good 4 you.God bless
One of the most emotional ted talks.
I feel like you managed to break that new brave world described by Auldos Huxley and become what you really want to be!
Wow, Kate your journey is truly inspiring!
Thank you Ms. Drummond!
I am turning 64 next Monday and you have just described my life! I am going to find my dream in retirement and live it as well and as long as I can. Thank you Kate!
Thank you, I'm 46 years old and came to the same fork in the road. I started a new job by chance, now decicided to make it my career. I just received a scholarship for college for Robotics and Engineering degree. everyone thinks ive gone mad, but I realized I need to do for me not everyone else. I wish you the best in your journey.
cathleena
this is so inspiring to hear! thank you for sharing!
How are things going now??
Thanks for sharing Cathleena. I'm also 46 and finally accepting the truth that I will never be totally happy in my career as an accountant, I've always loved art and crafts but took advice to follow the "sensible' route rather than going to art school. I'm now trying to get a creative side line going to start fulfilling my creative side
Which college did you get accepted to?
Thanks for being there for me this morning, I needed this
You are never old to follow your dream ....tomorrow you will be a different persone ....thank Kate
I love her she's so inspiring
i studied to become a professional composer but without ever taken any singing lessons in my life i realized i want to become a singer last year. i'd never really even sung much of anything but i tried it and turns out i'm a natural singer but now i just need to figure out some technique as well. i'm 31 now and it terrifies me i'm already too late but i'm going ahead with it anyway...
i'm in always knew it in some sense that's what i want to do but i didn't pursue it...it seems like the time just wasn't right, i didn't know what i now know, i wasn't exposed to the things i have been exposed to up until this point that led me to this decision. the future is compleeeeetely unknown to me at this point. *gulp*
oh my gosh… you're at your fork in the road. You can do it! ;)
i'm kind of passed that hopelessly lost in the woods :)
keeelane please dont worry I am 36 and I've only started singing now. I trained my voice but because I didn't think I was pretty or thin enough I didn't sing. The song is in you.find people to sing and compose with.look at Nina Simone she never want to sing just compose and play piano she ended up being a genius in all three.keep going .every one is on a journey every one is struggling. We will all get there.
Sileaine thanks. yeah, i'm holding onto it. i'm really fascinated by the human voice...definitely want to explore its possibilities more. have been getting into traditional folk vocal music more and more...
Thank you for your video, which is one of the best I have seen ... Even if it is a bit dated, it perfectly illustrates that we can want to change our life even though we have all that society think you are well ... This bifurcation is scary, but your enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you, thank you very much for this unsteady stimulation and invitation. Dare to live your dreams, there is nothing more beautiful. Fallen under your spell, I will follow you on tweeter from France ...
Thank you Kate for sharing!
Why doesn't this vid get more exposure? It is so relatable! Thanks for the talk. Awesome sharing!
Very Inspiring!! I recently took a step to follow my dream. Though it s been long in my head. You are are true example of its never too late. I am sure some day I will be able to share my journey called life.
GORGEOUS Kate! This was beautiful!
I will be 79 years old. Is it too late to start dreaming again? Wondering out loud!
By all means please dream again 😃🙏 have fun my friend
Never. Too. Late. Wishing you so much learning and love on your journey.
I needed this video.
never is too late
@@ulteriorwonderer3483 1ق11قق111111ڿڿڿ
Omg .... Thank you 🙏 that’s my story too, you have given me the confidence to take my next steps
I can’t put into words how grateful I am!! Thanks x
Good talk, Ms. Drummond. I took the path less traveled once. I gave me 7 enjoyable years of surviving nicely while doing my passion. When powerful market forces made it impossible to continue earn a living working for myself in the dream business, I took a j-o-b for security. Fortunately I can retire in 2 years with a bit of security and head back to the dream!
Thank you!!! Great talk and an awesome life you have got.
I can put my hands on my 💓 and say " I love you" Miss. Kate Drummond.
Incredibly inspiring and self-assuring to me!
Great story of redemption--There is still hope for me thank you for the reminder.
Thank you very much for sharing
and all the best to you!!
This talk reminds me of the poem O Captain! My Captain! by Walt Whitman. Happy to witness your courage and tears! I too found a safe haven in sports early on but then nothing. Still trying to make sense of it all. Thank you for being an inspiration!
Kate I loved your talk so much! I take it you succeeded with finding acting roles. Well done for being so brave! I'm at a fork in the road but not sure I'm so brave just yet! Will share this talk with others!
Thank you so much Rebecca! Wishing you lots of courage for when you jump ;)
Rebecca...the road to happiness is the scary one. ❤️
Seems clear that the secret to a happy and fulfilling life, is to focus on experiences and relationships, rather than acquiring material possessions.
Kate. How are you doing now? Hoping the journey continues with just as much excitement and enthusiasm as you showed in this Ted Talk. I've changed my life many times. From graduating as a Nuclear Engineer, changing to a software engineer, starting technology company after a few years working as a software engineer, becoming a mergers and acquisitions specialist, changing to a corporate turnaround specialist and travelling around the world, becoming a corporate executive as a CIO for some of the most well known brands in the women's fashion apparel. The journey has been lots of ups and downs, elation and fears, uncertainties and doubts, like a roller coaster.
Good luck and hoping you're doing well. Wishing you continue luck. Your talk is a great inspiration, not necessarily for the young only, but even more for people in their 50s and 60s who have been doing for 40 years what they've hated, fearful of change or to do what they would rather do. One has to ask three questions to oneself: If you knew you would succeed at whatever you choose, what would you do? If you had $100 Million in your bank account, what would you do? If you had 6 months to live, what would you do? Then choose what you'd rather do without fear, with trust and faith in yourself, and confidence.
So inspiring Kate! You are an amazing speaker too:) thank you for sharing❤️
This lady spits hot fire, I’m a fan! Damn truth and energy.
I feel like I am coming close to my fork in the road. You are an inspiration! I love for you to be present to cheer me on and I would do the same for you! Thanks for such a great inspiring speech!
Inspiring! Thank you.
really it is motivational and inspirable speech. I appreciate and enjoyed a lot. and hoping that will get more as well. Thanks. your walking steps may get success.
Thank you. Needed to hear this now.
Wow, thanks for sharing your story Kate
Thank you!!! I am about to take the dark path! I am 30 but the age doesn;t matter I have a lot to give and a lot inside my that it's burning my pilot with lots of energy for the next which is unknow at the moment for me! BUt it will be good I am enjoying myself! I have two kids and a husband that they will be proud of their mom for fighting to follow their dream ! It's scary
Thank you for posting. Insightful. Brave . Helpful. Relatable. Eye opening. 35 sounds so young.
Very inspiring speech. Thank you!
Hello, Thank you so much for your share and inspiring me. I have met some people who like to using, betrayed to the give the faver and like to gaslighting for there's benefit.
However, whatever they have done, i realize who i am more then before. Those meaningful people's negativity just makes them more negative.
I know what can i do, did and i will make more progress of my life. Enjoy your day like gift. Thank you so much.
Beautiful Kate

Hi Kate
I'm in a similar state probably from my childhood. Have nightmares out of the programming of my early life, which are not allowing me to be a free and contented soul... I don't know if someday I will get there where I belong...
