Lisa’s keynote was riveting and well received! Poignant, powerful, passionate, and memorable. Spontaneous applause erupted at least twice during her presentation, and she got a rousing standing ovation at the end. Many would like to hear it all over again, and with good reason. She was, without a doubt, the highlight of this year’s PAGE conference.
