April, what a great TED Talk. Research clearly supports your premise - that bringing our emotional selves to work is key. Rarely are arguments won, products sold, or people transformed simply by data/numbers. Figuring out 'our edges' and not 'smoothing them out' is great advice for all of us. THANK YOU for sharing.

Funny she speaks about breakthrough. See I find that as a Christian woman, when I feel at my lowest points, I feel that I’m not getting where I need to go or where I thought I’d be, it’s that very resistance where I know that in those moments of challenges, doubts, insecurity that breakthrough is just on the other side. It’s in those moments you push your faith beyond the boundaries and believe me, I’ve seen it, I’ve experienced and God’s promise has never failed me. This TedTalk was great! Thank you for confirming what I truly believe that I’m experiencing at this moment. And my edges are compassion and passion. Thank you!
