Watch our CEO Taban's TEDx Talk on the power of choice

We’re so proud and delighted to share this recording of our Founder and CEO’s first ever TEDx talk, which is now live on YouTube.

Taban’s TEDxMontmartre talk was recorded earlier this year in Paris, and saw her reflect on the big choices we have in life when we’re faced with crisis and adversity.

The 18-minute talk sees her recalling the trauma of her childhood, when she was taken prisoner with her family during Saddam Hussein’s regime in Iraq, and how a brave choice made by a group of Kurdish bus drivers saved them from an almost certain death.

Taban also talks about the biggest decisions she has gone on to make in her own life, including escaping an early marriage which turned out to be abusive, and her determination to launch the Lotus Flower in order to enable other women and girls to exercise their power of choice.

Check out the talk on the official TEDx YouTube page here, and please do like the video and post a comment on the page if you can, since all interaction and engagement will help spread the word about the Lotus Flower’s work.

We’re sure you’ll agree that Taban’s talk is incredibly powerful and inspiring…
