"The next time you face something that's unexpected, unwanted, and uncertain, consider that it just may be a gift."

Stacey Kramer


About this talk


Stacey Kramer offers a moving, personal, 3-minute parable that shows how an unwanted experience -- frightening, traumatic, costly -- can turn out to be a priceless gift.


Why you should listen to her:


Co-founder of Brandplay, a brand strategy firm, Stacey Kramer also founded Word for Word, a naming and branding consultancy serving national and global companies -- from big, recognizable names to next year's newsmaking startups.

In 2009, Kramer found herself confronting a terrifying diagnosis: a CAT scan revealed she had a brain tumor -- the size of a golf ball. She told her remarkable, personal story at TED2010.

"The next time you face something that's unexpected, unwanted, and uncertain, consider that it just may be a gift."
