Catriona Turner

Find Your Main Character Energy

How do the words we choose affect our idea of who we are? When Catriona Turner moved abroad with her husband for his job, she lost her sense of identity by trying to fit into the unfamiliar role of expat wife. Catriona takes us on a journey between France, Uganda, Congo, and Denmark to tell her story of how she got back to herself with a simple shift in word choice.

 

After several years abroad, author Catriona spends her days writing, editing for other authors, supporting her children and making the most of her new/old home of Aberdeen.

Connection is at the heart of everything I do, and it’s an exciting honour to have the chance to connect with the TedxAberdeen audience. The journey to the red dot has been an exhilarating challenge!
