“Therese brings a certain sage-like quality to her sessions. She is honest and realistic, yet empowering and positive.”

—Sumita Khatri, Cleveland Clinic

Therese was a public speaker long before she was a writer. Her parents believed you couldn’t get far in this world if you couldn’t talk to a group, so they coaxed her into her first speech competition when she was 13. She loved it. (It might have helped that she won).
