"She knows the topics of mindfulness and resilience well, but what makes her different from other teachers is her unique ability to “reach” into the heart and soul of each member of the audience to share her life experiences. In a long career in medicine (nearly a half-century from my first day of medical school) I have only witnessed two other people who had this powerful ability. Such immense power is necessary to motivate doctors to change behaviors and even viewpoints, but clearly her motivation is necessary for us. This Health Sciences Faculty Retreat was well-received by all in attendance."
