Trouver sa voix : du silence à l'expression de soi | Dr Antje Bothin | TEDxHSRW

La Dre Antje Bothin, coach en communication affirmée et auteure basée en Écosse, explique comment retrouver sa voix peut favoriser le changement personnel, la croissance professionnelle et des relations plus solides. Elle partage son parcours, depuis une enfance presque silencieuse marquée par un mutisme sélectif jusqu'à celui d'une dirigeante, poétesse et artiste aux côtés d'une confiance sereine. Selon elle, l'affirmation de soi ne tient pas au volume de la voix mais au respect de soi mis en action. Cette intervention a été donnée lors d'un événement TEDx organisé de manière indépendante par une communauté locale.
