What People Are Saying…
“Everyone left feeling connected and inspired. Multiple Slacks of "incredible," "fantastic," and "can we have this in our other offices?" The Q&A was also really strong— there are already multiple women jumping in on Slack to be each other's sounding boards when they need a motivational boost. We had almost 80 attendees, including some of our male allies. It's been nothing but glowing reviews!”
- Movable Ink Women’s ERG Meeting
“Fran was wonderful and the evening was a resounding success. Our women leaders were talking about how much they enjoyed the experience all day today. We hope there will be a future opportunity to work with Fran again!”
- Spectrum Enterprises’ Annual Women’s Leadership Group Meeting
“I really enjoyed Fran - she was my favorite speaker! I look forward to reading her book. Female authors and those that have a story to tell, rather than educating from a place of academia, end up being the best speakers!”
- Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public Accountants Annual Conference
“I cannot thank you enough for sharing your time, wisdom, and enthusiasm with my students. Your talk was beyond our expectations; it will be one of those life-changing events that my students will always remember. You made their day, and my day, too.”
