“She was fascinating. I’ve never seen a speaker convey so much emotion with just her eyes. So calm and almost zen-like. Her speech is impactful. I’d definitely recommend her for clients looking to capture messages involving connection, life, pain and empathy.  She was super easy to work with behind the scenes too. Very down to earth.”

I am seldom impressed by professional speakers enough to attend their sessions 8 times in 3 months. However that is exactly what I did with Allison. Her words were simple yet penetrating as if I had never heard her before. I have seen her bring her audience to a wholehearted laughter and even tears and that is not an easy feat for any speaker. I never got tired of listening to her.
