Relatable and transparent, Damaris is your go-to if you or your staff are ever in a rut. As someone who struggles with ADHD, analysis paralysis is typical for me, but Damaris has the tools to help get you back on track. Additionally, because she’s skilled in business branding, she has the skills to assist in your business struggles.
Response from Creative Conversationalist & Storyteller:
Thank you so much for your review!
Damaris will let you tell her your story, listen to your woes, & allow you to feel what you need to feel . . . For all of 2.5 seconds. She is the “Get Up, this is how we’re going to fix this” person. She will not let you wallow in sadness. She is ver solution based & even if you are still upset about your situations, your business, your progress, or whatever it is, just know she will have you up & moving towards a goal with tears in your eyes. Damaris is the ultimate motivator because she never stops pushing towards solutions.
Damaris is an exceptional public speaker and storyteller who leaves a last impact on all who listens. Her ability to speak about personal experiences and relatable experiences makes her delivery both engaging and thought-provoking.
Damaris is an amazing individual inside and out with amazing leadership qualities but most importantly, motivational qualities. With her journey through life, experiences, rather they be good or bad, Damaris is amazing with listening, ensuring she not only hears you, but sees you. I would listen to Damaris speak at any given time and I know she has the skill and will power to go far because of how she pours into others.
I have thee best conversations with Damaris. She has a strong ear for listening to you when you speak but an even better outlook and advice on things. Definitely holds a string spirit of discernment which makes my conversations with her memorable and very impactful. Every time we chat, I am always eager to hear what she has to say!
