  • "I attended Maria's breakout session at the Women's Business Conference in Eau Claire, WI. The topic of "Overcoming Imposter Syndrome" she presented made me curious and I'm so glad I chose to go to it! Her experience, knowledge, and passion energized the room. If anyone is looking for an idea for professional or staff development, working with Maria is a solid choice. I hope to attend a longer workshop of hers in the future to get the full effect."

  • "I really enjoyed how Maria incorporated the unique considerations of our group into her presentation, tailoring the examples she used based on participant feedback. She was enthusiastic, warm and receptive, and showed great knowledge around the subject matter. She provided each participant with excellent handouts and practical stress management exercises for daily use. "
