“Justin was passionate, energetic, engaging, and a lot of fun.”

“What I’m taking away is that it’s up to me to manage the glimpses people see. That was so impactful because those glimpses can happen in such a short amount of time and it’s up to me to show up as my best every time so people see the version of me I want them to remember.”

Peter Twachtman

CEO at Lark Hotels

“We couldn’t imagine having anybody else come and talk to our staff. He used humor, he’s direct and wonderful, he’s empathetic and he really opens the minds of those who come through our doors.”
