3 ted talks to inspireFridays with Vicky 21

These three inspiring TED talk videos really touched me. It is 3 amazing stories.

They all have one thing in common; they are incredible parents on a mission.

They are mom’s and dad’s that inspire, touch and make a difference.

 

3 Inspiring TED Talks from Parents

 

Nancy Frates – Her Touching Ice Bucket Challenge Story

Nancy Frates, Pete`s mom, is talking about how her son was diagnosed with ALS. How Pete, his family and friends, turned it into a mission to create awareness of the decease.

This is a touching TED talk on how you can make big things happen if you really believe in something. Nancy is on a mission to raise money and awareness of ALS, to find treatment and a cure to the decease.

She talks about how the Ice Bucket challenge went from the first ice dump to blowing up in media, among celebrities and literally all over the world.

You can see her touching story here. How a momma bear wants to do everything she can for her son.

Babble.com Creators Talk About Parent Taboo

Babble.com is a website for parents created by the couple Rufus Griscom and Alisa Volkman.

Becoming a parent for the first time is a life changing event. When you talk to family and friends about parenting, you mostly here about the good things. But is it all sunshine and unicorns being a parent?

Babble.com was created to give an honest view of parenting. They talk about 4 parent taboos. It`s a funny, interesting video that inspirers.

 

 

Bill and Melinda Gates Talk About Giving Back

This is a interesting and inspiriting video with Bill and Melinda Gates, How a trip to Africa made them decide to give back. How children are dying and not having enough globally, and how they make a difference. They share family pictures, and how they want their own kids to find their own destiny.

This is an inspiring video about giving back.

 

Thank You Mom

Here is an extra video for you, you might have seen it on TV. It`s the Thank You Mom ad.  All champions have a history of trying over and over again to succeed. In this video it`s kids becoming champions.

 

Even as adult we take on new tasks and we need to have the same mentality. If you are taking on a new adventure, it could be online marketing for example, then stick with it, brush off and get back up. Don`t give up.

You don`t have to do it alone either, join an awesome community like this one.

    thank you so much for sharing with us what inspires you! Those 3 TED talks (which are all fantastic to begin with) look very interesting and inspiring. I will make sure to watch them. And that commercial! I might have been the only one who had not seen it before. But it definitively touched something in me, brought tears to my eyes. We fall (in every sense of the term) so much as kids, yet mom is always there to kiss the pain away. Mom is always there period. To see that video reminded me of how appreciative I am of my own parents. So thank you

      Hi Emily,
      Yes those TED talks are definitely worth watching. They inspire in different ways.
      Even though it is a commercial, it has a very strong message that we all can relate too.
      It might be that it remind us of our relationship with our own mother or the relationship with our kids… either way it`s touching.

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it,

      Vicky
