This speech is based on the Domestic Violence video that has been viewed over 50 million times and the aftermath of her assault. Emma is now focusing on the positive impact these developments have had in her life. Emma Murphy is a 28-year-old fitness blogger and single mother of two. In 2015, she faced repeated domestic battery from her ex-boyfriend and father of her children. After one such incident that left her with a black eye, she decided to take to social media, where she posted a vulnerable video of herself telling the world about the abuse, deceit, lies and betrayal she was going through. In doing so, she consciously turned the terror of being a victim into a positive situation, refusing to let domestic violence diminish or define her as a person. To date, that video has been viewed over 50 million times worldwide. Emma is now a Domestic Violence Advocate, travelling the world to raise awareness for women and children who cannot speak for themselves. 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
