Dear Ms. Lessin,
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you again for taking part in our annual educational conference as a speaker. It was successful because of your involvement. We received many positive comments regarding your presentation from those in attendance . Your presentation provided a unique opportunity for our participants to think out of our typical box. It was great.

Your interactive seminar provided us with lots of practical advice on how to make balance a regular part of our day-to-day lives and was very informative and enlightening. You have a genuine gift in knowing how to connect with your audience. Your distinctive story and process are straight from the heart and were easy to relate to. You were in simple terms able to show us how to put balance in our lives, the way you have been able to put balance in your life.

Debbie Lessin’s workshop “Life is a Balancing Act” taught me a lot about myself. I have always used a strategic plan at work. But, I never considered implementing a personal strategic plan for myself to accomplish goals and establish the areas of importance in my life. There are so many ideas and concepts to learn from Debbie. I only wish she were a “personal coach”. I’d hire her in a minute!
Thanks for the great ideas and inspiring workshop!

I just wanted to drop you a note that I really enjoyed your session at our WMBA Annual Conference and your book (I also love the illustrations – they just seem so inspiring, if I can use that word, or peaceful. Anyway, it was one of the first things I noticed).
And on a personal note, your session really helped me to begin to deal with this new situation of raising a 13 year old (that’s not mine). I immediately put into practice the exercise you had us do—and it helped me realize what my needs are – has to do with my space—when my space is how I need it to be, I function much better J So when I got home, I gave my husband two suggestions that would help me out and they have worked out well so far. Unfortunately I can’t proclaim an edict that will affect a 13 year old girl’s attitude but I can help myself. And thanks to your session, I got the confidence to do that.
So, I just wanted to let you know how you helped me.

Thanks for a most informative talk the other evening at Senses Gallery. The pearl of wisdom I especially enjoyed was “Take care of the one person you can’t live without – You!”
