"I had the recent pleasure of working with Muffy as a speaker for our Elevating Black Women's Voices discussion and I can not recommend her enough. Her insightful discussion on adversity as a multiplier and post-traumatic growth left a lasting impact on our audience and we are still getting emails about the event."

"Muffy did a presentation for Auberle's NEXT group for young professionals. Muffy's remarks and an exercise she did with the group wonderfully combined both goals in a way that the participants engaged with her and enjoyed. Both of these outcomes equal success for a presenter."

John, Auberle
