Jessica was an EXCELLENT guest speaker for our spouse's breakfast event at the Broadmoor. I was fortunate to meet with her personally before the event and she shared so much about her life, both before and after such a harrowing experience. I was moved to tears when I read her book IMPOSSIBLE ODDS[...] | Beth Szymczak | Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association | https://peptalk-static-assets.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/speech-bubble-2.webp
