Attendee Testimonial

This presentation came at the perfect time, I have been going through personal struggles in my life and at work and it’s been really hard to cultivate a positive mindset. After this presentation, I feel like I have the tools to turn my attitude around and start living my life again instead of just surviving through it. The speaker was full of life and energy, and his stories and strategies really resonated. Thank you so much for coming out to speak with us, and for helping us find the gift of positivity!
