A tale of courage and struggle to prove that how much life throws back anything can be overcome. A story of how a RJ lost her voice to beating cancer not once but thrice and striving to live up to her dreams. C. Pallavi Rao Narvekar, known to friends and fans as Pallo, is a radio professional, with 24 years of experience behind her. At first glance, she will seem to be like any other radio jockey, but like everyone, she has her own story of struggle too. And what a story that is. Being passionate about radio, she worked with Radio Mirchi for a good 20 years. Her vocal skills were, of course, the most important skill set she possessed as a radio jockey. So when she was diagnosed with a rare auto-immune disorder, her career and life took a heavy blow. But she did not, even for a moment, let her condition (Myasthenia gravis) overpower her. She came out so strong that she survived cancer not once, but thrice. That was eleven years ago. Today, she is an avid blogger, author and a motivational speaker. She is also the current Group Head CSR at Radio Mirchi. Her journey as described by her, is nothing short of a Bollywood blockbuster. 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
