1
I'm really, really, really excited to be here.
2
I kind of want to tell you a little bit more of the, I don't want to say basics, because we don't really know anything about my syndrome.
3
I was born with this very, very rare syndrome that only two other people in the world, including myself, that we know of, have.
4
Basically, what this syndrome causes is that I cannot gain weight.
5
Yes, it does sound as good as it is.
6
I could eat absolutely whatever I want, whenever I want, and I won't really gain any weight.
7
I'm going to be 25 in March, and I've never weighed over about 64 pounds my entire life.
8
When I was in college, I hid, oh, I didn't hide.
9
Everyone knew it was there but it was a giant tub of Twinkies, donuts, chips, Skittles, and my roommate would say,
10
I could hear you at 12.30 reaching under your bed to get food.
11
But I'm like, you know what?
12
It's all right.
13
I can do these things because there are benefits to this syndrome.
14
There are benefits to not being able to gain weight.
15
There are benefits to being visually impaired.
16
There are benefits to being kind of really small.
17
A lot of people think, Lizzie, how in the world are you saying there's benefits when you can only see out of one eye?
18
Let me tell you what the benefits are, because they're great.
19
I wear contacts.
20
Contact.
21
Half-off contacts.
22
When I wear my reading glasses, half-off prescription.
23
If somebody is annoying me, being rude, stand on my right side.
24
It's like you're not even there.
25
I don't even know you're standing there.
26
Right now, if I stand like this, I have no clue that there's this whole side of the room.
27
Also, being small, I am very willing to volunteer myself myself to go to Weight Watchers,
28
go to some gym and say, Hi, I'm Lizzy.
29
I will be your poster child.
30
Put my face on whatever you need and I will say, Hi, I use this program.
31
Look how well it worked.
32
Even though there are really amazing things that have come from this syndrome, but also things that have been very, very difficult, as you can imagine.
33
Growing up, I was raised 150% normally.
34
When I was my parents' first child, and when I was born, the doctors told my mom,
35
your daughter has no amniotic fluid around her at all.
36
So when I was born, it was a miracle that I came out screaming.
37
The doctors told my parents, we just want to warn you, expect your daughter to never be able to talk, walk, crawl, think, or do anything by herself.
38
Now, as first-time parents, you could think that my parents would say, oh no, why?
39
Why are we getting our first child to have all these unknown problems?
40
That's not what they did.
41
The first thing they told the doctor was, we want to see her and we are going to take her home
42
and love her and raise her to the best of our abilities.
43
And that's what they did.
44
I credit pretty much everything that I've done in my life to my parents.
45
My dad is here with me today, and my mom is at home watching.
46
Hi, Mom!
47
She's recovering from a surgery, and she has been the glue that's held our family together
48
and given me the strength to see that she's going through so much, much but she has this fighting spirit that she's instilled in me
49
that I have so proudly been able to stand in front of people
50
and say you know what I've had a really difficult life
51
but that's okay that's okay things have been scary things have been tough one of the biggest things
52
that I had to deal with growing up was something
53
that I'm pretty sure every single one of us in this room has dealt with before.
54
Can you guess what that is?
55
Starts with a B.
56
Can you guys guess it?
57
Boys.
58
Boys?
59
Bullying.
60
I know what y'all are thinking.
61
I should have come, why can't I sit here with them?
62
I had to deal with bullying a lot, but as I said, I was raised very normally, So when I started kindergarten,
63
I had absolutely no idea that I looked different.
64
No clue.
65
I couldn't see that I looked different from other kids.
66
I think of it kind of as a big slap of reality for a five-year-old
67
because I went into school first day decked out in Pocahontas gear.
68
I was ready.
69
I went in with my backpack that looked like a turtle shell because it was bigger than me.
70
And I walked up to a little girl.
71
I smiled at her.
72
She looked up at me like I was a monster, like I was the scariest thing she'd ever seen in her life.
73
My first reaction was, she is really rude.
74
I am a fun kid, and she's the one missing out, so I'll just go over here and play with blocks or boys.
75
I thought the day was going to get better, and unfortunately, it didn't.
76
The day kind of got worse and worse, and a lot of people just wanted to have absolutely nothing to do with me, with me and I couldn't understand why.
77
Why?
78
What did I do?
79
I didn't do anything to them.
80
In my mind, I was still a really cool kid.
81
So I had to go home and ask my parents, what's wrong with me?
82
What did I do?
83
Why don't they like me?
84
And they sat me down and they said, Lizzie, the only thing that's different about you is that you're smaller than the other kids.
85
You have this syndrome, but it's not going to define who you are.
86
They said, go to school, Take your head up, smile, continue to be yourself, and people will see that you're just like them.
87
And so that's what I did.
88
I want you to think and ask yourself this in your head right now.
89
What defines you?
90
Who are you?
91
Is it where you come from?
92
Is it your background?
93
Is it your friends?
94
What is it?
95
What defines who you are as a person?
96
It's taken me a very long time to figure out what defines me.
97
For so long, I thought what defined me was my outer appearance.
98
I thought that my little tiny legs and my little arms and my little face was ugly.
99
I thought it That was disgusting.
100
I hated when I would wake up in the morning and I was going to middle school and looking in the mirror, getting ready and thinking, can I just scrub this syndrome off?
101
It would make my life so much easier if I could just scrub it off.
102
I could look like the other kids.
103
I wouldn't have to buy clothes that had Dora the Explorer on it.
104
I wouldn't have to buy stuff that was bedazzled when I was trying to be like the cool kids.
105
I would wish and pray and hope and do whatever I could to pray
106
that I would wake up in the morning and I would be different, and I wouldn't have to deal with these struggles.
107
It's what I wanted every single day, and every single day I was disappointed.
108
I have an amazing, amazing support system around me,
109
who never pity me, who are there to pick me up if I'm sad, who are there to laugh with me during the good times,
110
and they taught me that even though I have this syndrome, even though things are hard, I can't let that define me.
111
My life was put into my hands, just like your lives are put into yours.
112
You are the person in the front seat of your car.
113
You are the one who decides whether your car goes down a bad path or a good path.
114
You are the one that decides what defines you.
115
And let me tell you, it could be really hard to figure out what defines you.
116
Because there are times where I would just get so annoyed and frustrated, and I don't care what defines me.
117
When I was in high school, I found a video, unfortunately, that somebody posted of me, labeling me the world's ugliest woman.
118
There were over 4 million views to this video, eight seconds long, no sound, thousands of comments, people saying,
119
Lizzie, please, please just do a world of favor, put a gun to your head and kill yourself.
120
Think about that.
121
If people told you that, strangers told you this.
122
I cried my eyes out, of course, and I was ready to fight back, and something kind of clicked in my head, and I thought, I'm just going to leave it alone.
123
I kind of started realizing that my life is in my hands.
124
I could either choose to make this really good, or I can choose to make this really bad.
125
I could either be grateful and open my eyes and realize the things that I do have
126
and make those the things that define me.
127
I can't see out of one eye, but I can see out of the other.
128
I might get sick a lot, but I have really nice hair.
129
Thanks.
130
You guys are like the best little section right here.
131
That's my train of thought.
132
Okay, where was I?
133
Hair!
134
Hair, okay, thank you, thank you, thank you.
135
Okay, so I could either choose to be happy
136
or I could choose to kind of be upset with what I have and still kind of complain about it.
137
But then I started realizing, am I going to let the people who called me a monster define me?
138
Am I going to let the people who said, kill it with fire, define me?
139
No. I'm going to let my goals and my success and my accomplishments be the things that define me,
140
not my outer appearance, not the fact that I'm visually impaired, not the fact that I have this syndrome that nobody knows what it is.
141
So I told myself I'm going to work my butt off and do whatever I could to make myself better,
142
Because in my mind, the best way that I could get back at all those people who made fun of me, who teased me, who called me ugly,
143
who called me a monster, was to make myself better and to show them, you know what?
144
Tell me those negative things, I'm going to turn them around, and I'm going to use them as a ladder to climb up to my goals.
145
That's what I did.
146
I told myself I wanted to be a motivational speaker, I want to write a book, graduate college, have my own family, my own career.
147
Eight years later, I'm standing in front of you, still doing motivational speaking.
148
First thing, I accomplished it.
149
I wanted to write a book.
150
In a couple weeks, I will be submitting the manuscript for my third book.
151
I wanted to graduate college and I just finished college.
152
I'm getting a degree in communication studies from Texas State University in San Marcos, and I have a minor in English.
153
I really, really tried to use real life experience while I was getting my degree, and my professors were not having it.
154
I wanted to have, lastly, my own family and my own career.
155
And the family part is kind of down the line.
156
My career part, I feel like I'm really doing well with it, considering the fact that when I decided I wanted to be a motivational speaker, I went home, I sat in front of my laptop,
157
went to Google, typed in how to be a motivational speaker.
158
I'm not even joking.
159
I worked my butt off.
160
I used the people who were telling me that I couldn't do this to motivate me motivate me.
161
I use their negativity to light my fire to keep going.
162
Use that.
163
Use that.
164
Use that negativity that you have in your life to make yourself better because I guarantee you,
165
guarantee you, you will win.
166
Now, I want to end with asking you again.
167
I want you to So leave here and ask yourself what defines you.
168
But remember, brave starts here.
169
Thank you.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
