Thank you so much for coming in and sharing your story. Hearing from you was so immensely powerful, empowering, and inspiring. The work you do is just so important, and it's truly a beautiful thing that you are taking the worst years of your life and turning them into a way to help others. You are an AMAZING speaker and I am so honored to have had the opportunity to hear from you today.
You have been one of the most impactful public speakers that I have ever witnessed. I am literally speechless and so appreciative for your strength. Thank you.
I really appreciated how open she was, providing enough detail without going over time or remaining on one topic for two long. I liked how she included details about how she doesn't seem like the typical victim, and how she detailed the steps in abuse and how they related to her personal story. I also liked how she focused on herself, and not on the abuse itself.
I thought that this was the best speaker to bring in for the semester. Being able to hear what it was like firsthand was amazing because it did bring us into her world and actually made us feel what she was feeling. It was moving and makes me want to fight against domestic violence more than ever. I wouldn't change anything about the presentation.
Thank you so much for taking the time to come speak to our class. I can't express how grateful I am for all of the work that you do. I deeply respect and admire the way that you have found meaning and purpose in your story, utilizing it for advocacy and education with the goal of helping others.

Leslie is an amazing speaker. Her personal, honest story and insights captured the interest of the audience, helping the audience better understand the nature of intimate partner violence, how it unfolds, and what people can do to challenge the structures that promote it while empowering themselves and others to be safe.
Leslie – I can’t begin to thank you enough for coming to Dallas for the CONFERENCE ON CRIMES AGAINST WOMEN. Your keynote was absolutely AMAZING! Sharing your story/your life – you absolutely set the tone for the entire conference. You are exactly WHY we do what we do! And as many times as I have personally watched your Ted Talk – I was as spell bound as the first time I heard it. Your words of thanks to the police in the room – so poignantly helped them understand WHY victims DON’T say thank you at the time. You helped prosecutors understand the process and not the isolated incidents. I was touched by your willingness to return to the house/to the floor/to the abuse – but with the understanding that THIS TIME you did not return by yourself. There is NO doubt in my mind that those professionals in the room returned home with a better/deeper understanding of what these hideous crimes are and how to better investigate – supporting the victim and holding accountable the perpetrator. So….thank you SO much for being part of this Conference. And…it was a personal and professional honor to meet you in person. Of course because I HAVE seen you so many times on line that I already thought we were best friends. This conference makes that official. Also – wanted to say THANKS for the outstanding CNN-Op Ed piece. I use those examples all the time, Orlando, San Bernardino, etc. etc. etc. You are an amazing spokeswoman! You inspire us all! Hope our paths cross again soon!!!
Leslie was exceptional. She was extremely interested in our audience demographics, in our donor attendance, and what, if anything in the local news happened to be immediately relevant to our program. You could hear a pin drop when she engaged the audience with her keynote. Her speaking style was well received, and she went over and above to inspire giving to our organization.
Leslie was the perfect addition to our event supporting survivors of domestic violence in Arizona. She brought an impactful and inspiring story of hope, love and resilience. We even gave out copies of her book "Crazy Love" to a few lucky guests and she was kind enough to sign them for our guests. She was open to spending time with sponsors and our DV staff to connect with our organization. We have only had very positive feedback from guests who attended and listened to Leslie speak!
