One attendee’s Feedback from this event:

"Please tell Erika that her message inspired me. One of her
messages today regarding making yourself good and doing good
for other really struck a cord for me.

She also spoke about "Recognizing the power in knowing who
you are." Her words today were a confirmation to my power.
Please know you have energized me and have put me on the
right path."
