Скачать или смотреть Take the first step… even if it’s a wobbly one | Jake April | TEDxAmoskeagMillyard

Born premature and living with cerebral palsy, Jake April challenges how we judge ability, success, and potential. Through humor, vulnerability, and hard-earned lessons, he shows why no one else gets to define what you’re capable of—and how taking imperfect first steps, embracing struggle, and finding belonging can turn perceived limitations into powerful opportunities. Jake April is a motivational speaker and disability advocate with a master’s degree and a passion for helping people challenge assumptions and connect more intentionally. His work focuses on empowering individuals to overcome personal and societal limitations, especially around how we’re perceived at first glance. He's spoken at schools, colleges, camps, and events, and regularly shares insights on platforms like The Unsealed and across social media. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
