"I want to thank you for all that you did to set me up for success with my speech. Thinking back on our time together, your warm presence and the way you encouraged me to step outside of my comfort zone meant so much. You have energized me and built my confidence in a way I did not realize was needed. I believe that gap is gone now because of you." --Robert G., CEO

"Denise was INCREDIBLE!!! We recently had to prepare a pitch for a competition. Denise not only helped us with writing the pitch, but she rehearsed it with us countless times, helping us with our timing, with when and what to emphasize, thus making our pitch sound incredibly professional (if I do say so myself:). Denise is a thoughtful, talented and amazing coach." --Sarah S., Entrepreneur

"I wanted to write to offer my deepest thanks. My presentation went unbelievably well. It was the first time in my life that I've ever actually enjoyed speaking in front of a room. My voice wasn't shaky or monotone...and I didn't stutter. That it went so well with a film crew in the room is even more shocking." --Sam S., Academic
