Death is a verb: Integrating grief through story | Shari Tate | TEDxSugar Creek Women

Bu video hakkında

Are you working with your grief or is your grief working you? After surviving multiple near-death experiences and enduring a year marked by profound loss, Shari Tate came to a surprising realization: death is not just an event that happens at the end of life. It is a recurring part of being human. We experience many deaths throughout our lives and with each death comes grief. Through the lens of a writer, this deeply moving talk explores a powerful new framework for understanding grief: not as a condition to overcome, but as a story to integrate. It reveals how unprocessed grief shapes our relationships, our bodies, and our communities, and how storytelling can help us reclaim our agency and move forward. Shari is co-founder of Rose & Honey Apothecary, a writer and communications professional. Her written works span fiction, poetry, essays, screenplays, and various personal online publications. Shari is a featured poet as part of the global Of Earth and Sky exhibition, has been featured on the It's a Poetic Life podcast with award-winning poet Enzo Silon Surin, and was listed among Charlotte's Notable Young Professionals for her contributions in the nonprofit sector. As she completes her current manuscript she is also extending her lifetime of wellness experience into public speaking. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
