"All day, I have been searching for words to describe what we were lucky enough to experience yesterday. And honestly, I’m at a loss for words because I have never experienced anything like it. There is no doubt that you are a master in your area of expertise and that the wealth of knowledge and experience you have shared with us was simply "mind-blowing". However, what impressed me the most was that you did not waste one moment talking about yourself, your achievements, your business, your titles, your awards, your clients, and your successes. Instead, you dedicated one hundred percent of your time to helping us. And fyi…New York City folks are not an easy crowd. Before you, the last standing ovation we had for our monthly program was in 2016. Forever, I’ll consider your event to be the highlight of my time serving as president."
