Have You Ever Met a Monster? | Amy Herdy | TEDxSanJuanIsland


Messaging around sexual assault prevention is largely aimed at women and cloaked in helpful advice: dont walk alone, dont get drunk, dont put yourself at risk. Essentially, dont get raped.

What if we turn this attention to a different population and say, dont rape? What are we doing wrong as a culture that we continue to produce rapists?

Through poignant storytelling, award-winning author and investigative producer Amy Herdy explores the cycle of sexual abuse and examines the dangers of dismissing our most violent predators as monsters.

For more than twenty years, journalist and author Amy Herdy has specialized in trauma reporting, particularly sexual assault.

Ms. Herdy’s professional engagements include teaching workshops on investigative reporting and trauma journalism for the U.S. State Department in Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad, Pakistan. Her awards include an Emmy; Society of Professional Journalists awards; a Radio, Television News Directors Association award; an Associated Press award; two American Society of Newspaper Editors awards and a Military Reporters

The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong | Amy Morin | TEDxOcala


Каждый человек может стать психологически устойчивым, но большинство не знает как.

Мы часто интересуемся тем, как развить физическую силу или улучшить физическое здоровье, и гораздо реже задумываемся о силе духа или психическом здоровье.
Но существуют упражнения, с помощью которых мы можем научиться контролировать свои мысли, управлять своими эмоциями и оставаться продуктивными вне зависимости от обстоятельств. Это три главных фактора психологической устойчивости. Выработка силы духа — залог успеха вне зависимости от того, каких целей вы хотите достичь.

Эми Морин — лицензированный клинический социальный работник и психотерапевт. С 2002 года она занимается консультированием детей, подростков и взрослых. Она также работает адъюнкт-преподавателем психологии.
