“Jessica is a powerful speaker who has the ability to connect with women on a personal level. I was immediately impressed with her combination of professionalism and down-to-earth nature, and she created an atmosphere where we felt comfortable sharing our thoughts and feelings. She helped us realize how often we tend to measure our individual worth by what the media says is "beautiful," and how important it is that we don't.”
