Wendy can walk into a room full of 100 strangers, and walk out having 100 friends. Wendy’s gift of listening is what make’s people feel so comfortable. Young or old, rich or poor – Wendy has the ability to make people come out of their shells, to share their feelings and or/ideas, and then help them put things into perspective. It also helps that she has an infectious laugh and smile.

Wendy came to our school for a staff development day, and we could not have had more fun! Wendy kept the entire staff fully engaged. She emphasized
the impact we each could make on a students life, and how many students benefit from mentorship, leadership, and encouragement. The seminar was fun, emotional, powerful, and even brought some of the staff
to tears; we all really had a blast.

The staff at our
school were experiencing a crisis.
We were burned out and forgot how to be a team.
Our director had Wendy come in for a professional
development day. All she told Wendy is that we were burned out. Wendy brought us back into a cohesive unit. We were laughing, crying and hugging by the end of the program. Wendy just has a way of seeing how we were getting in our own way. It forced us to talk and examine the “problems”we were facing and how we needed each other to solve them. It was a truly
transformative day.

Wendy Thank you

Wendy has taught me how to love
and empower myself. She has taught
me to accept the help I need to
overcome my anxiety, and find happiness inside myself. How did she
accomplish all of this with a young teenage drama queen you may ask? I can't tell you, because I am not entirely sure. It might be her calm attitude and nonjudgmental tone. Wendy
has the power to make you feel safe
and at ease; she always has the best solutions and advice as well.

Wendy has developed a
wonderful rapport with the other
team members that included teachers, counselors, administrators and business partners. She works well both independently and in collaboration with others. It is rare to work with someone who has the skills and ability to communicate ideas so that they are easily understandable. Wendy's ability to collaborate effectively and efficiently with others is to be commended.

As COO, I admire the
class environment Wendy creates, giving diverse participants a feeling
of inclusiveness, autonomy, and value. Given the class content includes perspective, life experiences, and intentional change, Wendy's ability to redirect potentially dicey conversations to a connective point, allows for all participants to feel connected and respected. As a participant, the curriculum is serious and structured. Wendy's non-judgmental and lighthearted
approach provides levity and humility, to serious conversations which creates a climate that is enjoyable and conducive to reflection, perspective and intentional change.
Nancy Goodhart
COO EngAGE
Wendy's dynamic presentations kept our
students engaged. They also shared that they found the content informative and valuable. What I found to be Wendy’s gift was her ability to easily connect with students. She created a safe space that allowed our students to feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings in a natural & peaceful way. Wendy has a heartfelt commitment to young adult development and success. Her wealth of knowledge and experience, as well as her contagious positive energy are strong strengths that would make her an asset to any organization.
