Thank you for coming to speak with us! Within the Military ERG we have spoken about mental well-being, but have approached it in almost a reversed, slightly clinical way. During and after your talk people have reached out to help get involved and drive mental well-being not only in the US, but in our international chapters. We knew having you speak would be meaningful to those that participated, we just had no idea that the impact would be this large. | | Microsoft |

Mike's virtual presentation went AMAZING! We had all positive feedback from internal employees. Feedback from the audience included 'This is such a great talk and the answers are really honest and helpful. Thank you.' and 'Excellent session! Feeling grateful and inspired!' Shortly after Mike's session, employees had an open discussion about their own mental health experiences. It was great. We hope to bring Mike back in the future! | | Salesforce |
