I just wanted to thank you for your help in bringing Julia Garcia to our
campus. She had a great message and an interactive presentation that kept our students engaged and really opened their eyes. We have had only positive comments! It was also a pleasure working with you, Jayne, in getting everything in order for our program. Thanks to you both!

I liked how she mixed art with information. I haven't seen that so much, usually they'll resort to humor or something that's shocking, but not so much art, I really appreciated that. 

~Students, NACA National Convention​



I thought the presentation was very sensitive and eye opening. It encouraged me to open up with any inner struggles. 

~Mount St. Mary College​



















It was amazing. She took me to an emotional high and an emotional low. It was so raw and powerful. She's so relatable it's amazing!

~Student, NACA National Convention​



We really liked the show because it can relate to college students. It was also inspirational that she told her story, it made a personal connection. 

~Students, NACA National Convention​



I thought it was a really good show. It put questions into my head about my college experience. It was kind of shocking to see almost all of the room stand up every single time with every question she asked.

I really enjoyed the message at the College of Coastal Georgia! I for one have had to learn how to use my family's social class as a catalyst at an early age or I probably wouldn't be where I am today. Keep doing what you do and many are sure to prosper through enlightenment. Thank you!

~Patrick, College of Coastal Georgia

Very moving and inspiring. I'm sure everyone could relate to what she said and grow from it.

~Morgan, Ferris State University

Julia's presentation really touched home for me. She really inspired me and re-instilled the aspect of dreaming. â€‹
