What if the people we often underestimate have something essential to teach us about how to live? Through reflections on her relationship with her sister Kara, Alisha Espey explores what attention, ordinary moments and unconditional love can reveal about a meaningful life. In a culture shaped by distraction and striving, this talk invites us to pay attention and reconsider where wisdom lives. Alisha Espey is a storyteller, placemaking professional, and event organizer based in the Quad Cities. A believer in the power of connection and belonging, she leads programs and events for the Downtown Davenport Partnership. Inspired by her relationship with her sister Kara, her TEDx talk explores what people we often underestimate can teach us about attention, joy, and love. 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
