"We had Megan facilitate a Media Training Master Class for our members at our annual leadership conference, and it was s smashing success! Many participants noted that it was their favourite session of the whole conference! Megan was prepared for the session (which was booked on very short notice) with relevant subject matter examples and a very informative presentation. Our participations found Megan to be just the right combination of profession, relatable, and wise."
