I had the distinct pleasure of inviting Dr. Shola to Maine to offer a webinar on “Just Say ‘No”‘ in January, she was an absolute hit!
“This topic, with administrators’ plates overflowing, was timely and so important, I would love to see more offerings like this!” “I’m going to practice and master saying no graciously.”
“It was a fun hour. It’s great to have such an engaged speaker and professional from outside of education but with overlap and connection, thanks!”
“l need to prioritize what I can say yes to and what I need to say no to.”
This is just some of the feedback I received from my members who attended Dr. Shola’s session. She was fun, engaging, real, and honest. I am looking forward to having her return to Maine for more.

“I want to thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to be our guest speaker at our yearly Women’s History Month event- “Providing Healing, Promoting Hope”. Your presence and wise words helped us drive the theme for this year home and I truly believe that those in attendance learned something new. I also thank you on behalf of our other guests who were thrilled to listen to you and have their questions answered. Your energy and spirit inspired me at the very least to think differently about how I want to pursue my own healing while being hopeful. I have received so many kind words from those in attendance about how great the event was and particularly how they loved your talk.
Thank you again.”

“On behalf of NAMI NJ, I would like to thank you for your keynote to our audience at the 2022 NAMI NJ Annual Meeting/Conference.
Your presentation was amazing! Very timely, gave wonderful real world examples, and practical tips and tools that our family members and caregivers can use on a daily basis. Sometimes, speeches on self care give unrealistic expectations – but you were so cognizant of our population, their time and needs restrictions, and made self care easy to identify and attainable.
Your humor and relatability, made even a zoom presentation feel friendly and intimate.
I would highly recommend you for any future prospective speaking engagements, and welcome you to use me as a reference.
Thank you.”

“Excellent Speaker!
Dr Shola is an excellent speaker with good content. I have had the opportunity of attending a number of her events and I always felt energized with new ideas from her talks. She also was invited to speak to the resident doctors at my residency program and her presentation and delivery was on point! Majority of the residents enjoyed having her and learnt a lot about avoiding burnout and joy in the work place. We plan to bring her back to speak to our new group of residents once the pandemic is over.”

“Wow!!! Dr. Shola, thank you for delivering such an energetic talk on BALANCE! “Having it All, Without Doing It All!”, is contrary to how women typically think. In order to get it all done, it’s often thought we have to do all the work too. We were left enlightened on the importance of self-care and setting boundaries to achieve stress-free lives. Here’s to avoiding burnout through prioritizing self, without the guilt and empowering others how to do the same.”
