Interesting. Provocative. Exactly what we needed to start of 2022 ….

Roger Hochschild CEO, Discover Financial Services

I have heard a lot of talks over the years and [Dr. Taryn Marie’s keynote] was one of the best; clear, concise, relevant, and inspiring. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

David Butcher Head of Medical Affairs, ViiV Healthcare

Taryn is an eloquent, effective communicator motivated by care and compassion. She approaches her life from a place of gratitude. She applies these traits in every relationship and interaction. Taryn’s partnership has been integral to helping me obtain a deeper level of introspection, self-awareness, embrace vulnerability and grow in my resilience.

Matthew Bennett President, Cigna Medical Group

Taryn has incredible empathy and intuition, so it’s no surprise that she is such a great coach! During the time that I worked with Taryn, I experienced firsthand her ability to quickly tune into what’s happening with others and ask critical questions to laser focus on what’s most important.

Andrea Butcher President HRD, Talent Strategist

Taryn’s presentation was impactful and valuable to our organization. Not only was the topic of resilience extremely relevant, but the way she presented her methodology was clear and easy to understand. She taught us how to access & practice resilience both at work at at home… her message was inspiring, genuine, and full of a-ha moments.
