Amberly Lago Turning Tragedy Into Triumph
Select Testimonials
"Touching and Authentic" A couple of nights ago I attended a Provisors at Night Event in Irvine as a newish member came up to me to reintroduce himself. Apparently he attended the March SOC when Amberly spoke and said it was the best Provisors meeting he has ever attended yet. It so moved him that he was teary-eyed and was definitely inspired.
"The workshop was inspiring!" Amberly spoke from the heart and created an environment of immediate trust and respect. Her compelling story of overcoming the unimaginable and not just surviving, but thriving was amazing! Her candor and impassioned desire to share set the tone for honest and forthright discussion about our own strengths, desires, and resources. This is a powerful conversation and topic for team bonding!
"There were tears and there was laughter." A million thank you's! Thank you for bringing your story to Dress For Success. Thank you for giving the new members of the Professional Women's Group the opportunity to feel hope, pride, and determination. There were tears and there was laughter. I saw the beginnings of trust and camaraderie that will lead to a strong network as the group evolves. Thank you for setting precisely the right tone for our year-long program of workshops. Thank you for giving so much of yourself and so passionately supporting the mission of Dress For Success.
"You were voted top speaker at our annual conference!"
"What a compelling presentation at our meeting!" Your story was inspirational! You did a great job of balancing humor with a very serious topic, making it both entertaining and thought-provoking. I found it compelling to hear your comments about the support you received from others and it gave our group confidence the we could support each other too. Thank you for all the work you do with disabled and special needs clients.
"Your presentation to our group was stirring!" You are an authentic hero, and it amazes me you can be humble in the light of your luminous accomplishments. I have received calls from other members of the group who wanted to discuss with me how they might change the way they live their lives in light of your message of focused endurance, belief in self, and the willingness to endure great pain and fight through incredible obstacles to achieve a life worth living. I cannot thank you enough. I am a big fan.
Please keep her in your future PWG groups! I have learned so much from Amberly about team building, trust, and grit. I am grateful to be embarking on a year's journey with this group and grateful I was here for this workshop.
"You saved my life" Being alone and not finding work, I had had enough. The thoughts came to my head to end my life but I heard your voice in my head saying, no you are not doing it. I don't know why but thats really all I could hear was your voice saying hang on. It was enough to pull me away from these sad thoughts. Thanks for all you share. God brought you into my life to save it.
