When it comes to Louise Byg Kongsholm, I'm star-struck. I'm so impressed by the amount of knowledge she manages to gather, but also by her ability to communicate it. At the same time, she possesses a calmness in her rhetoric, as if to say 'don't worry, there's more where that came from.' A beautiful oracle of knowledge, which I eagerly consume both in her courses, face to face, or through her books. Louise, you make your profession seem like child's play, and we're invited into the sandbox where my sandcastle gains color and substance.
