"We had the pleasure of inviting Anne to speak at Women in Digital, and she brought such a grounding and inspiring energy to the room. She opened and closed the session with moments of mindfulness that helped everyone pause, connect, and be fully present. Her calm and reassuring voice carried those practices beautifully, setting the tone for reflection and focus. Through anchoring and her thoughtful stories, Anne guided us into a true learner’s mindset, one that encouraged openness, curiosity, and growth. Her presence was both gentle and powerful, creating a safe space where participants could engage more deeply with the session. The value she added to our event was remarkable, and we’ll be inviting her again." - Nadia Mohajed, Women in Digital Switzerland, Geneva Chapter

"Anne was an absolute joy to have as a speaker at The Marketing Meetup Geneva. She brought an incredible mix of warmth, insight, and practical guidance that resonated deeply with our community. Her session on values-based storytelling not only inspired the room but also equipped attendees to find and share their own authentic stories with confidence. The atmosphere she created was one of openness and connection, perfectly aligned with TMM’s ethos of kindness and community. We had fantastic feedback from participants who left feeling inspired and ready to put their stories to work. I can wholeheartedly recommend Anne as a speaker who combines expertise with empathy, and who leaves a lasting impact on her audience" - Joanna Duncan, TMM Geneva
