Audience Testimonial
Cathy, Guelph Women In Networking
I met Sarah at her very first stage presentation and one year later attended her book launch at the same location to celebrate.
Sarah has a lifetime of leadership experience and knowledge that she shares with her audience in a way that clearly shows she is living her best life and others can too!
Audience Testimonial
Kelly, Teacher
Sarah came to my school and gave a motivational speech on Leadership. Somehow in a gym with a couple hundred grade 4-8 students she was able to make a personal connection to each and everyone. Each student left the assembly feeling empowered with a least one way they could be a leader in their own life. Even parents who attended commented on what a great speaker Sarah was and how sharing her personal experiences with everyone was both touching and uplifting. I hope Sarah can have a chance to come back soon!
Audience testimonial
Claire, Rotarian
"Sarah spoke to our Rotary Club last year and her
personal journey with Pearl Performance Inc. was inspiring and her presentational skills were infectious and powerful. If you want to motivate individuals, work colleagues, or friends to make changes to their lives which will bring them joy and ultimately success, getting Sarah to present to them would be an excellent start."
