Barbara De Angelis, Ph.D -#1 NY Times Bestselling Author

"I'm a harsh critic when it comes to people who call themselves 'motivational speakers,' so I don't say this lightly: Debra Poneman's rare combination of profound advice, clarity, humor and, above all, authenticity, was evident the first time I heard her speak over 20 years ago--and it's more true than ever today. Simply put, Debra Poneman is a master of the art of inspiration."
