"Kara's presentation was phenomenal. She focused on setting the context of financial inequity and incorporating her own personal story to make the content approachable for our audience. Our attendees were super engaged and excited by Kara's actionable next steps and resources shared throughout the presentation. I really appreciated her candor while making a usually tough subject fun and engaging. I would love to bring Kara back in the future to work with our other Employee Resource Groups."
