Feedback
I was privileged to listen to Marina speak in arguably one of the more difficult environments to hold an audience, being a group of primary schools sports awards winners accompanied by their parents. Marina's ability to pitch and mould her story into an inspiring message to not only the kids but to the parents also was nothing short of incredible. Her ability to engage the audience through humour, experience and questions left the children and parents all lining up to continue the conversation well after the speech concluded. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to speak in front of any audience, whether it be corporate, motivational or a group of kids aiming to achieve extra ordinary things. Emirates Team New Zealand
