Great newsletter this time, very quotable. Good show. Keep up the good work. Very re-enforcing to know my vulnerability makes the desired connection. Loved the Noah "lessons", especially the two-by-two concept, I have been a loner too long. Showcase benefits, often the toughest part of my job, I have been too bogged down in trying not to brag. The biggest boost came with expressing my gratitude by telling you how these little tid-bits met my needs.

"I was thinking about 2004 this weekend, and certainly my Bermuda cruise in August was a standout event in the year, in no small way because of a certain speaking coach I met on board. I just want you to know that I employed some of the techniques we discussed during the cruise in the preparation and delivery of my eulogy at my father's funeral.. And I even spoke without notes. Thanks for helping me through the most difficult two minutes of my life."

"Sandra, Meeting you was the highlight of the NSA meeting. I owe you a dozen roses. You offered me hope, took out time from your busy schedule to "listen" to my woes, and offered suggestions and to top it off, just as I was heading out the front door feeling like my mission wasn't accomplished, you introduced me to a wonderful lady, Linda. I believe Linda will be the key to my speaking business. We spent time together on that Saturday, dined together and made plans. In fact, she has already sent me a friendly email me. I really believe that you were an angel sent my way. Thank you."
