Our speaker Amanda is also taking the stage at TEDxFargo on July 25th!
Our theme for July is TRUST. It was chosen by our Islamabad chapter and illustrated by Ibrahim Nasir.
When we trust each other, we feel safe to share ideas, give feedback, and take risks. It requires vulnerability and a willingness to be open to the possibility of disappointment or betrayal. So, trust is not purely belief or faith. It is an active choice.
Trust is a gift. It must be given before it can be earned.
