Bringing Goodbye Back To Life | Dr. Tonya Rivers | TEDxCulpeper Women

Words matter! In this inspiring and insightful talk, Dr. Rivers shares how, over time, we have conditioned ourselves to minimize the full meanings of words. And how society has normalized subjecting our feelings to electronically implied emojis and two-character well-wishes, verbally negating the social power of the true meaning of fixed expressions. Through this word metamorphosis, she shares that we can clearly see death in words. For if we leave the word "good" out, we miss the whole meaning of the word goodbye. So, when we treat each new day as just a period of time, with no awareness of the lack of good in our salutations, it’s hard for others to feel our desire to truly wish them well. This is the importance of bringing goodbye back to life. Dr. TR aka The Idea Concierge™ is obsessed with helping individuals and businesses. She is an International Business Thought-Leader, Consultant, and Mentor who advises organizations on creating motivating, innovative, and knowledge-driven workplaces. She hosts a Top 2% podcast in entrepreneurship as the Founder of the Rock Your Dream World-Wide initiative since 2011.
Dr. Rivers has received numerous recognitions and awards, including being named a 2024 Top 100 Executive under 50.
Known for her passion to ignite the fire in others, she shows people how to take their dreams, set plans, and activate them for success. 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 Receive SMS online on sms24.me
