Having seen her speak online, I brought Julie in to speak to our first post-pandemic leadership conference. She was BRILLIANT! The session was every bit as well organized, professional and full of positive energy as I’d hoped. Best of all, my leadership team went away with practical, transferable new techniques that are already helping improve our clients’ experience working with us!

We were tasked to find a high-energy, leading female speaker. I booked Julie and watched her on the big stage at the 100,000-person Musikmesse event in Frankfurt and to 1,200 entrepreneurs (plus the Greek Prime Minister) at the EU Investment Fund Conference in Athens. Julie was excellent and received incredible feedback. We’ll be sending Julie on the plane to a lot more conferences!

Julie presented to my organization today and all I have to say is “Wow!” This was my second time seeing her on separate topics and she was charismatic, endearing, brilliant and insightful. I highly recommend Julie as a speaker to any organization. She made good on her promise of what we would gain from the event. I came away with practical, application “to do’s” that I’m implementing.

She held our attention for a half-day session and we didn’t want it to end. She’s a fantastic speaker, a fun storyteller, and an incredibly smart cookie! I heard participants describe her as ‘amazing,’ ‘clever,’ and ‘fantastic.’ I highly recommend Julie for any organization or audience looking for an injection of motivation, innovation, and laughs. She’ll change the way you think.

Practical. Engaging. Relevant. Actionable.

“Knowledgeable, engaging, and entertaining – what more could you want in a speaker? Julie spoke in Dublin recently and gave an absolutely brilliant talk. She was totally focused on what benefit she can bring to her audience vs just dishing out some ‘standard presentation’. And she was generous with her time AFTER she had spoken! She is down to earth, practical and she is also great fun!”Barbara Moynihan, On Your Feet
