Interpreting others’ realities | Jennifer Duffy | TEDxDonovanCorrectional 2018

As a 911 dispatcher, Jen faces the everyday trials and tribulations of the different realities people face in their daily lives, whether it is in crisis or otherwise. While connecting on a human level, her job requires her to interpret others’ realities to make an impact and change lives. "I take great joy in spreading great ideas, but it’s even more rewarding to receive them. Being part of a “first responder” team is the perfect job for me, as I’m really nosy and I like to talk a lot. I like to think I’m pretty open-minded and open-hearted, believing that people are generally good. Sometimes we only see the bad around us, but it’s important to be mindful. Take a moment to see all of the beauty and wonder around you."
