Natalia Cohen was a member of the first all-female team to row unsupported across the Pacific Ocean. This was an expedition of 9,000 miles from San Francisco, USA to Cairns, Australia in a 29ft ocean rowing boat. Natalia talks about this extraordinary journey that was not only a challenge of extreme conditions and perseverance but also a deepening awareness of the undeniable importance of forging connection with others, the environment and our inner world. Natalia Cohen is a travel professional, speaker, transformational coach and adventurer. Her broad range of experience in over 50 countries includes leading adventure tours, operations management, volunteer and project coordinating, walking 30 days across Northern Spain, experiencing monastic life in silent retreats and managing a remote safari lodge in Tanzania. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at
