Loss is a part of the human experience, and it is time to view loss from a different angle. Emily McMillan, 19, is a second year student in the faculty of Nursing. She has a love for people, poetry, and pasta. When not studying, you can often find her amongst friends, stirring with laughter. In her talk, she speaks of childhood experiences in which she believes has given her a “book bag” of tools that will help her to prosper within her nursing career. 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
