When Lora meets hearing people, they will mostly pay attention to the fact that she is deaf. And even weirder, they see it as a limitation. Her whole life people look at her as someone who cannot hear. Personally, she experiences herself as a vivid person who has the gift of speaking an intimate and personal language: Body Language. During her Talk, Lora explains how everyone - both humans as well as animals -use body language as communication, but only few are aware of this.

Lora is a mother of three kids, works as a visual designer for a communication company and runs a website agency with her husband, and… oh yeah she’s deaf.

When Lora meets hearing people, they will mostly pay attention to that last feature of her. And even weirder, they see it as a limitation. Her whole life people look at her as someone who cannot hear. Personally she experiences herself as a vivid person who has the gift of speaking an intimate and personal language: Body Language. And now, she aims at sharing this gift by giving body language training in corporate settings. During her TEDx Talk, she will explain how everyone - both humans as well as animals - speak body language, but only few are aware of this. 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
