If you focus on force you will fail or break........ If you focus on energy you will stagnate......But if you focus on intention and think about it a lot you will achieve your goal and your power.

[@ladyslick121]

I wish she expanded more on that...more on the spiritual aspects of the lessons. Instead of just telling her general story. Also how she got tongue cancer soon as she stopped expressing herself. All those things are connected. A great talk either way!

"what kind of a woman do I want to be in my third act. How do I stay relevant?" - Powerful!

[@jupilings3030]

Powerful indeed! Having planned the third act in life one that is to empower others truly is admirable.

Finally ! A real woman like her, confident and beautiful inside out passing her knowledge to the world ! I am so happy that she decided to share her experiences with us..

[@theogoldberg8919]

She keeps the flame and the memory of her mom intact. Never forget those tragic events... Outstanding integrity and Business Woman. DVF for President hahahah

[@saveUyghurs]

Too bad we are letting them replay in China and Myanmar today.

[@VMRVid]

I'm putting on makeup rn and almost burst into tears when she said, "by giving you life, you gave me my life back."

[@rubyredd6366]

Those are my Mother's exact words! She also added, 'never under estimate nor surrender your power". Wise strong relentless women! 🙏

[@lipingfeng]

the way she talked emits such a sense of richness, joy and vitality. delightful as it is enlightening. I want to listen to this talk many times. Thank you for sharing.

[@brendadrew834]

Fascinating woman and life. She's two years older than I am and I've been watching her and following her career and life ever since the early 1970s when I worked as a fashion illustrator in NYC. Love the story of her incredible mother as well! Thanks for sharing~

[@lakminidesilva465]

This talk so deserved a standing ovation

[@jupilings3030]

It's a gift to have a kind, loving and nurturing mentor especially a mother that guides you to reach your full potential.

[@mspuff9562]

“The most important relationship is the one with yourself, the others are a plus & not a must”, well said!

[@SonyaWongJamisonKeener]

This woman is amazing. I met her in 1999 at FIDM. She was a very gracious person and signed my copy of "Diane - A Signature Life". It is fantastic that she generously shares her experiences with people.

[@purplethumb7887]

Oh, my! What a wonderful, lovely lady she is! I had no idea what an engaging, fun, charismatic, and funny woman she is. I love her story, and it was an absolute pleasure to hear her speak. She is absolutely right: Women are powerful. They just need to know how to use and express it.

[@leavesongrass]

That frank revelation of self should have got a standing ovation!

[@Humansabroad]

Why doesn’t this talk have millions of views????!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🏻

She's a gem. So full of childlike passion

This was a powerful speech. I love her now wtf!

[@sherrytzasherrytza4793]

You've got such a pretty name.

[@jupilings3030]

Fabulous Diane von Furstenberg, "the power of intention"! In all circumstances, you have to be aware or remind yourself of your intentions and once you do that, amazingly stamina & energy to fulfil will swirl in your mind, body and the goal you aim to achieve.

[@piercehawke8021]

Diane's mother; what she went through and survived, would've scared a Navy Seal. In other words; the mom was a badass, in the best sense of the term.

[@TheShhSecret]

I am so happy she finally got a Ted Talk! I've heard these stores from her other interviews so many times but she always includes new details and I never get bored. As good a storyteller as she is a designer.

[@susan8576]

Diane is one of my all time favourites in the fashion industry. Focused, business oriented and creative.

[@elliottgwendolyn]

Sure enough, 9 months later, I was born and I was not normal ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@KatieKamala]

What an authentic woman who has learned life's lessons and continues to inspire others. Love her talk and feel inspired to lose my fears and step into my true power.

[@TsetsiStoyanova]

Diane is a true icon of fashion

[@AnaSofiaLoves]

She’s a true icon!

[@lauriane__dumas]

What an amazing woman. I will listen to this every time I feel lost or need life advice.

[@llynnie888]

Wow, this woman knows how to manifest her dreams. Very charming!♥️

[@angier6118]

A man's life in a woman's body ... awesome

[@tracyg9721]

A wonderful talk that I thoroughly enjoyed. The difference is that it’s easy to design a life when you start with a different time, economy, privilege, population and most importantly did not need to think about your footprint. I am happy for her and really love the part about intention and her third act. I just find it strange that everyone is screaming about the warming earth, and we are mining deeper than ever, all of these people selling junk on amazon “designing their life, creating their brand”. I like to see people design their lives without it being at a massive expense to the planet.

[@ariellascott9908]

I agree but I'm not sure she owns the company anymore

[@Benstephan123]

tracy g designing your life start with your passion and calling. if its means you contribute to healthier and more clean and peaceful earth you can design your life around it many people do. many people design their lives around sustainability minimalist and earth supporting life style and help educate others. in a paradoxical way the time we live in has much more opportunities to design the life you want.

[@pasjoterapia7981]

thank you for this wonderfull speech, especially for the story of the man who saved her mothers life, we sometimes are angry on situations that on the end are better for us, just open up for it... bessings..

[@geewiz8253]

She is amazing. Genuinely funny as well. Loved to see how people like her don’t have an ego because they know who they are and the good that they stand simply because they are strong inside. And love that “wow” in the end ask well. ❤️ 💪 💕 👗
