    ‘You were a hit with our audience last night! Your story resonated with all of us, as did your enthusiasm, positivity and empathy. When I heard a few of the women in the audience open up and share their stories, I knew they trusted you and that you had struck a deeply personal chord with them, not an easy thing to accomplish for either side. Your efforts undoubtedly left a lasting impression and added tremendous value to the lives of those who were present.

    Thank you for your dedication to helping other women by sharing your experiences and strength. I believe your contribution in this way makes a significant difference in the lives of others, and I am grateful for having the opportunity to showcase you.”
