It was amazing to see how much better everyone looked the next day...pressed clothes, polished shoes; ladies with long straight hair had it pulled back neatly. Also, I heard that on the evening after you spoke to us that several of the guys went back to their hotel rooms and changed into BLUE shirts before joining everyone in the bar for a few drinks. Apparently, they heard you loud and clear AND that's very exciting because it is going to help them to not only meet their professional goals, but also their personal ones. You ROCKED, lady!”
