“The speaker was incredibly engaging, and the information presented was easy to understand and  incredibly useful. Outstanding!”

“I’m so elated to have experienced Jelan speak and talk that talk. Not only is she accomplished professionally, she’s grounded enough to remove her shoes, sing a good church hymn, and make us giggle. Her message was potent and timely and gave us all a medicine that still resonates in my cells to this day.” 

“Wonderful display of what cognitive dissonance looks like and the trauma responses it invokes.  Keep keeping on sis.  Do the damn thing!”
