What Audiences Say
“You know a speaker is amazing when not a single member was on their phone! Everyone was completely engaged, asking tons of follow-up questions as Dr. Jill addressed what we really wanted to know- even awkward issues like sweaty pits, bad breath, nail-biting, and social anxiety. Also, everyone loves how she’s never preachy or condescending; she’s so matter-of-fact, sharing stories and specific tips to teach us about the real risks of alcohol, weed, pills, hookups, and even tattoos and piercings.
