Calissa attended our organizations annual Symposium and presented her keynote speech, “Oxygen Mask Mindset: Avoiding Burnout.” Her keynote was engaging, informative, and left our staff feeling empowered and re-energized in our mission to nurture the next generation. Calissa also brought an element of warmth that reminded us of the joy and importance of our work. The practical strategies shared during the talk are already making a difference. As a child care organization dedicated to shaping young minds and fostering growth, we were truly inspired by Calissa's keynote speech. She perfectly captured the heart of early childhood education, blending insightful research with real-world relevance. We wholeheartedly recommend Calissa Ngozi for any organization looking to inspire, educate, and uplift their audience. This keynote was truly a gift to our head office staff, caregivers and educators.

We had the pleasure of having Calissa as our Emcee for Niagara’s Third Annual Dancing with Easter Seals Stars, and she was exceptional. As the event coordinator, finding the right Emcee to host such an important event is one of the most crucial tasks, and Calissa exceeded all expectations. She was engaging, interactive, and struck the perfect balance between humor and seriousness when needed. Her energy and charm were contagious, and the audience absolutely loved her. We’ve already booked her for next year’s event and can’t wait to work with her again! Highly recommended.
