Ignite YOUR LionHeart - I speak for the Lion! | Linda Tucker | TEDxWilmington

Linda Tucker starts by telling her own story - how she was nearly eaten alive by a pride of angry lions in the middle of the African bushveld. (Seriously) And how that living nightmare “kick-started” her heart, which was enslaved to the international glamor industry at the time. Now a renowned lion conservationist and author, she shares with others how to ignite and reactivate their “LionHearts” and find fulfillment through love, courage and clarity, while hearing Nature’s voice - without venturing into the jaws of death!
-
After being rescued by a Tsonga medicine woman from a life-threatening encounter with a pride of lions in 1991, Linda Tucker gave up a career in international marketing to become a conservationist. She has dedicated her life to the urgent protection of the critically endangered White Lions,amongst the world’s most targeted trophy.
Over 3 decades, Linda Tucker has campaigned for their protection against the legalized malpractices in South Africa’s notorious cuddle-and-kill industry.
Founder of the Global White Lion Protection, she has successfully rewilded them, and secured vast protected heritage lands in the heart of their ancestral territories: UN-designated Kruger-to-Canyons Biosphere.
She is author of Mystery of the White Lions (2001), Saving the White Lions (2010) and LionHearted Leadership (2016). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Amazing talk, thank you! Thank you for your courage and your lionhearted leadership - you (and the lions) inspire me.

This brought me to tears, thank you so much! I too would love to be a part of your leadership training!

Thank you Linda, for embodying the Lionheart, and bringing her back to life. I am deeply moved, and in appreciation, for your willingness and compassion, in the face of humanity's darkness. We are waking up and we are restoring our sacred lineages. I just found you from the 60 Minutes Australia KZbin video piece done about you, just published. And led me to your website. I shall seek out your books, and body of work. I am a USA Native American elder, not raised in my ancestral ways. I was born a mystic shaman, but part of the white dominant culture. I've been gifted with animal communication instilled in me by my bloodline. Everything you've done, I've been able to echo some of it. Great Spirit is with us and my wish is Godspeed. Thank you Grandmother and Marah.
