How To Turn Your Pain Into Power | Rochelle Okoye | TEDxYouth@SeymourSt

After enduring a life of abuse and struggle, Rochelle Okoye eloquently and passionately demonstrates how to turn your pain into power and how to evolve through these very experiences. She teaches that light can only be understood with the wisdom of darkness and that we each have the choice to be the victim or victor of our own stories. Rochelle has found a true path to healing and has modeled a way to successfully stand in her power through overcoming her pain and many adversities. She now teaches others how to do the same. Rochelle’s TEDx talk will empower you to take responsibility for your life, your wounds, and your traumas. She teaches you how to heal them and how to embrace the pain, as it is meant to elevate you and propel you closer to your purpose. She challenges you to find the blessings in your lessons, and the light in your darkness - to forgive, let go and evolve into the best version of yourself.
