"Best speaker I’ve seen at a conference. Ever." Eric Jacobs, Environmental Protection Specialist, Colorado Dept of Public Health & Environment
"Sharon was one of the best-reviewed speakers we’ve had at one of our conferences. Our members were on their feet, engaging with her and other audience members. That’s not an easy thing to do with this crowd, but they loved it. And we’re glad Sharon could help us launch our conference with this fun, energetic, and fascinating presentation."
CATHLEEN HALL, Colorado Rocky Mountain Solid Waste Association Conference Chair
"Sharon gave us another great training, and we already know we want to have her back next year. She’s dynamic, fun, and gives us so much great, practical information.
BRADLEY GASSMAN, Safety & Environmental Director, Association of General Contractors, Colorado"
"I would book Sharon to keynote another event in a heartbeat. Before the event, I can count on her for her professionalism and timeliness. At the event, she knocks it out of the park with her ability to engage and interact with the audience. I heard so many positive comments from my attendees about Sharon. We were all excited about getting so many useful strategies we could take home with us."
CORRINNE SULLIVAN , Meetings Planner, One Call Concepts

COURTNEY PHILPOTT, Conferences & Meetings Coordinator, Tennessee Valley Public Power Association
"Sharon went above and beyond as our keynote speaker.
Not only did she give us a great speech— I am still getting feedback from conference attendees on the impact of her keynote presentation and how they are making small habit changes in their lives and reflecting on their time at the conference-- but she also attended other events we had that day and facilitated a special session for just a few of our attendees.
This roundtable discussion was a deep dive that allowed us to go in depth into the material as well as learn from our colleagues. It was a great bonus event, and I would highly recommend bringing Sharon to your event."
SHELLY FULLER, National Association of Hazardous Material Managers Conference Chair
“I’ve been working with Sharon Lipinski on a couple different conferences, and they were two completely different audiences. And she did a wonderful job of being able to relate her message to anyone in the crowd.”
STEPAHNIE ORR, Meeting Planner

DAN HODGES, Executive Director, Colorado Association of Municipal Utilities
"I heard so many positive comments from not just my members but also my staff. They loved that they could immediately apply her strategies to improve their organization’s safety and their own health. Plus, she was fun and engaging. We’ll definitely invite her back for future events."
GREG BARLOW, CSP, CET, Loss Control Manager, CIRSA
"THANK YOU Sharon Lipinski for blessing the Women’s Leadership group at my agency yesterday. Your session was the first that drew a record breaking 95% attendance rate — I guess that’s what happens when a Super Hero shows up! You coached, guided, informed and inspired us to identify the habits we want and provided us with a very prescriptive strategy to make them part of our everyday lives."
ERICA CALHOUN, Vice President MKTG
“I asked Sharon to speak to our group after hearing her present at another event, and I’m so glad I did. She expertly tailored her presentation to the needs and challenges of our general and specialty contractors. Her presentation style held people’s attention and engaged them with strategies and insights they could take back to their jobs."
PERRY SILVEY, Director of Health & Safety Iron Woman Construction

GLORIA MORGAN, Director of Annual Giving, Georgia Southern
“It was so refreshing to hear Sharon speak. She didn’t give a typical rah-rah speech or lecture us with clichés. She helped each person understand what they wanted to change in their lives, and then helped them craft a strategy for making it happen. Sharon’s presentation was enlightening, empowering, and transformative.”
LEIGH STENBY, Vice President Mercer
“Sharon’s presentation was perfect! She was clear and concise, easy to listen to and right on target. Sharon delivers her organizational story with a very interesting style and detail that holds the attention of the listener. She can field questions with ease and brevity and makes the audience very comfortable for the duration. She is a very accomplished speaker.”

"It was authentic, It was relatable. It was manageable. It commanded us and demanded us to put some things down right then and there."
Thank you again for helping make our conference successful!

Thanks again and I hope to be able to work with you again sometime in the future!”
