“Thank you very much for your involvement in helping to make our annual Gala & awards dinner a truly special event this year.

Your speech was both inspiring and uplifting. Everyone I spoke to after the event told me that they had been positively impacted and touched by your story. It was certainly a lesson in how personal strength and determination can triumph over adversity. You are a powerful, passionate and persuasive speaker, and  have a unique ability to ignite an audience into action which makes you one of the most exciting, relevant and memorable speakers that I have experienced.

I look forward to working with you again some day soon. On behalf of myself and the CanRad team, thank you.
