Dear Margie,
I want to thank you for your recent speaking engagement with the Women Physicians’ Section of the Medical Society of Virginia. I have completed the evaluation summary, and it’s clear you were a BIG HIT!
Being given the highest rating possible by 75% of the participants and good to excellent by 94% of the participants is NOT typical for this group! It’s clear that your subject matter hit home and I could tell at the conference that the participants were engaged – which isn’t easy with a room of 90 tired and distracted physicians.
From a meeting planner’s perspective, you were a joy to work with. I appreciated your responsiveness and input on making the conference even better. I would not hesitate to engage you again and recommend you to other event planners.

Margie knocked our socks off! Having experienced Margie's dynamic and down to earth presentation style before, I personally selected her to speak at the inaugural meeting of the Sabre Women's Connection to ensure its success. She did not disappoint! The women leaders at Sabre found Margie both enlightening and inspirational. We walked away with clear examples of how to implement Margie's sage advice in both our personal and professional lives. I would recommend Margie as a speaker to any group who is interested in discovering ways to get clear on their priorities and find more meaning in their day to day life. Margie was truly inspirational and really made our event a huge success.

Margie’s seminar ‘Courageous Conversations’ gave practical guidance on how to approach difficult conversations with confidence.

Margie spoke to our Women's Network on "Courageous Conversations" and how to have them. Margie is energetic, professional, easy-going and quite a breath of fresh air. Without notes, props or even a chair, Margie delivered divine words of wisdom for women seeking to make changes and promote themselves at work and at home through conversations with others. Many who attended commented on how much they gained from Margie's presentation. We look forward to working with her more in the future.

Wow, what a fun presentation! Your presentation was so relevant for our busy lives. I got a lot out of it personally and having begun to apply your practices I am already experiencing a better sense of wellbeing and balance in my life.
I've also received great feedback from many other chapter members who thoroughly enjoyed the program. It was great to get information for bettering our lives while laughing. Your stories and great sense of humor were greatly appreciated. It was one of the best presentations we have ever had!

Thank you for presenting 'Success is a Balancing Act' and kicking off the first seminar in our Lecture Series for Professional Women. Your topic was a superb lead into the remaining seminars. Your dynamic presentation style was especially appropriate for the luncheon setting, providing a great format for participants to truly develop a bank of "Keys to A Fabulous Life." I look forward to having you return to SMU to speak again.

It was a great pleasure to work with Margie Warrell who was the featured speaker at our recent luncheon. Throughout the process Margie was professional, organized and flexible. She provided helpful assistance in publicizing the event. Her presentation was delivered in an engaging manner and was considered by the group to be enjoyable and relevant. Margie had our attention with her first sentence and throughout the hour. Our only regret was that the allotted time was too short. A large number of people were inspired by her and chose to buy her book. In short, she was great!

Thank you for the presentation you delivered to Verizon Information Services HR Conference. Your talk on achieving "Success through Balance" to over 100 Human Resources employees was very well received. You speak to the human element that we all deal with in business as well as our personal lives. This component underlies many of our interactions on a daily basis both on the job and at home. Your energy and enthusiasm, coupled with real life examples, really paint clear pictures for us to relate and better understand how we can work to attain success through balance! Thank you for contributing to the success of our Human Resources conference!"

Margie is an energetic speaker, with real life tips for busy professionals and, in particular, working moms. Margie not only walks the walk, having a busy family of her own, but she puts her audience at ease with her brilliant smile and warm personality. Margie has the "girlfriend from down the street" feel, with a very impressive background/education to lend some valuable advice for how to live a more meaningful, full life - and enjoy the journey along the way.

You gave some great tips for achieving balance in your life. The program was well received by everyone in attendance. In a very short period you were able to give some key components of achieving balance in your life. It was an excellent program. Thanks again for speaking to our group.

I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and thought the content was great and very timely- all of us could relate. As women, we have a difficult time saying "no" and your tips on how to say "no" and handle requests were a great lesson. The crowd really 'warmed up' to your funny stories and I heard several folks say "that was great", "very uplifting", and "I really needed that today". It was a pleasure to meet you Margie and thank you again for speaking to our executives here at Verizon.

Margie's candor and energy was very refreshing, and her remarks were highly relevant to the attendees of our Women's Networking Group event. Through Margie's advice, she gave me permission to say no to those things and people that do not align with my priorities and commitments. As busy professional women with full personal lives, our attendees appreciate the practical advice and inspiration that Margie provides!
