Susan, I attended your seminar in Birmingham, AL. I’ve been
torn between my work, home life, and finding the time to study
to earn my Certified Professional Secretary certification. Your
seminar helped me set this goal and stick with it. When I was
moved to a more stressful and busy job at work, I was tempted to
postpone the test; but I studied and passed! I really think it
was because I put my goal on paper and decided I was not going
to let myself down. Thank you so much for your inspiration!
Antoinette M. Woodard CPS

"Just a note to thank you for a wonderful seminar in Sydney. I had a thoroughly wonderful time and wished
the seminar lasted longer!!! I learned so much and found myself
coming back to work and reciting your sayings, jokes and
lessons!! I am a new woman and people can't believe it!! I
didn't think that it would be that good however I found it to be
very informative and entertaining. If I know you are speaking at
another seminar I will definitely be signing up for it. All the
best for you in the future and good luck for your return home.
P.S. I woke up this morning and SMILED!!!"
Danyelle Dowden, Administration Coordinator,
"I wanted to tell you what an impact you made on me and how

you're so FUNNY!) You go girl!"
Marybeth Pitchkites

"I would like to thank you for a truly wonderful seminar
today. Rarely does one leave a CPE event with an improved sense
of direction and renewed spirit. Your learning techniques are
innovative, exhilarating, and practical. The best part is that

what a great combination! Thank you once again for providing our
local “stressed out” internal auditors and CPA’s with a lifelong
strategy for implementing creative, useful, and enlivening
stress management techniques."

IAAP Annual Seminar. Your talk on Oomph! was exhilarating.
Susan, all I can say is thanks! What a great job! I especially
enjoyed it when you went around to every table before the dinner
and introduced yourself. That really broke the ice and helped me
when I followed you and introduced myself. Due to you speaking,
we have received ten follow-up calls from new members. This is
the most interest we've had in years from our seminar. Again,
thanks for all you did. You will hear from me soon."

for being our recognition luncheon guest speaker last week.
You
made me look like a genius…and that's hard to do! I have
received many comments after the luncheon from our volunteers
relating how much they enjoyed your presentation. As recent as
this morning someone who wasn't even at the luncheon called to
get your number. Some friends had told him how good you were and
he's going to call you about speaking at a function he is
putting together. It was indeed a pleasure to lunch with you…"
