Testimonials Keynote Address:  7th Annual Governor’s Roundtable for Families and Children: Cherie’s magic filled the room at the 7th Annual Governor’s Roundtable for Families and Children the moment she stepped on stage and shared her heart.  She spoke to everyone as if speaking to each of us individually.  Cherie reminded us that together we are doing great things and individually our dreams are achievable and can take us anywhere we want to go.  After spending time with Cherie you, too, will believe in the impossible.  Thank you, Cherie. The Honorable Dirk Kempthorne, Governor, State of Idaho 2007 First Lady Patricia Kempthorne ____________________________________________________________ Keynote Address:  TWIN Awards – Tribute to Women and Industry Cherie is an exceptional speaker; she is very inspirational, amusing and entertaining.  Her personality is dynamic and keeps the audience engaged. Janice Johnson Executive Director Women’s and Children’s Alliance ____________________________________________________________ Moving from Striving to Thriving – Group Coaching Session  I don't know how to thank you enough for the incredible opportunity you provided through your From Striving to Thriving forum. Every hope and expectation I had for the session were not only met, but exceeded far above and beyond! My first hope for the program was to gain tools to assist in my defining my goals and prioritizing them. Not only did the session assist in helping validate and further clarify the goals I had already conceived, but opened up questions and concepts that I hadn't even considered. My second hope was for the sessions to provide motivational tools to move forward with my goals. The support, constructive criticisms, suggestions and encouragement from Cherie and the other group members has been invaluable. The handouts provided great inspiration and guidance throughout the week. My third hope was for an opportunity to find and prioritize me time with women. What a great group of ladies! We had such diverse backgrounds and stories, but found common threads in our needs, dreams and joys. The opportunity to take a break from our everyday routines and reflect on where we have been, where we are, where we want to go and how we are going to get there has been such a helpful experience. Thanks you so much for this opportunity!
