"Grit is a variable that is interchangeable. And we all have it. We have to choose to activate it and choose to thrive as a result of tapping into our grit." - Dr India White

A sixteen-year-old, India arrived home and knocked several times for her mom to let her in. She was exhausted after working a late Christmas Eve shift.

She knocked again. No answer.

Tears began to run down her face. In shock, she walked elsewhere. Through no fault, India was kicked out by her mother, who battled addiction.

She didn't know how to make it, and understandably so. She was just a teenager.

Yet her faith and grit helped her to focus on her academics.

Her faith and grit helped her grieve the loss of four family members while in the shelter.

And her faith and grit helped her to persist to complete, not one degree but three degrees from the University of Florida.

On November 12, 2022, Dr. India White will make a new home for herself at TEDxOcala and share her story of the power of grit.
