Sarah Kay touched my heart when I first saw her perform at the Student Leadership Conference this Saturday. Her every word, movement, and intonation was precise and delicate, yet had so much power and passion behind it. I couldn’t help but tear up by the end of her performance. I felt like I could do anything as her words brought in me a truly wonderful breakthrough.

Below is a lovely TEDtalk/performance Sarah did that is worth every minute watching. The video doesn’t do justice – this woman is absolutely phenomenal live.

“If I should have a daughter…”

Needless to say, spoken-word poetry is now on my bucket list.
