SPEECHES

I have given speeches to a wide variety of groups and on a wide variety of topics, since 1998. Popular speech topics are: my adventures in Japan, my involvement with the recovery effort after the Japanese tsunami, and my pickle business. The two speeches I have given that unexpectedly gathered rather a lot of attention, were my 2010 Ted Talk on positive body image ("I Love my Bum") and my 2022 talk at the Better Way Conference about life through the lens of a vaccine-injured person. Both talks are on YouTube, and can be seen below.
