Suze far exceeded our expectations as a speaker. She provided solid information and advice regarding women getting their financial houses in order, but she gave so much more than that. Her honest discussion of her own background and her determination to succeed was very inspirational and moving. I am sure that many who have dealt with adversity left her speech feeling even more resolved than ever to succeed. Suze was the best keynote speaker that we ever had. Her style of speaking was clear and down to earth, and all done without notes. We could have listened to her for the remainder of the afternoon, and it seemed like the hour flew by.
