"BOOM. Did you get that? Because that's how quickly my life changed." In this inspiring talk, triple-amputee Cpl. Juan Dominguez talks about how to heal and pursue your dreams in spite of insurmountable odds.

Inspired by a family tradition, Cpl. Juan Dominguez served in Afghanistan. In 2010, he stepped on an IED and lost both legs above the knees and his right arm above the elbow. Cpl. Dominguez has been honored with many awards, including the Purple Heart Medal. After the injury, he married Alexis Dominguez, and continues to pursue a career in music production.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
