“Sacha Coburn spoke at a conference we held in Christchurch, delivering a presentation centred on the theme "Surviving to Thriving." Sacha’s speech was both powerful and entertaining, filled with content that resonated well with our staff. We would highly recommend Sacha for anyone considering an impactful and memorable speaker for their next event. Her ability to connect with the audience and convey meaningful messages makes her a standout choice for any conference or gathering.”
