REVIEW!

“ I loved the session! It was phenomenal. I think Justine is one of the best speakers I have had in my, dating myself, almost 20 years of work presentations. She has a vibrant energy, and her passion for the topics she speaks about really shines through. She also speaks about it in a way that makes it engaging, and doesn’t feel preachy, or make a person feel guilt for what they haven’t done, just more inspired to find ways to do more. Which is a tricky balance to find. I truly look forward to the next presentation we get to have with Justine!”
