Keynote
Do you believe you're a victim if you are threatened or attacked--whether it's verbal, physical or sexual?
By not identifying as a victim, Kiran Patel navigated through a sexual assault and death threat when she was 24. Her assailant backed off. She walked away.
The four power principles she applied are universally applicable--even where there is a power imbalance. Kiran shares her inspiring story and leaves her audience empowered through accessing a place inside that cannot be harmed, not identifying as a victim, accessing choice even in constrained situations and humanizing interactions. |
