testimonials
"Your first impression when you meet Terry on stage is, WOW! She's lovely". Then you say, "Wow! She's hilarious!" Then later on, "Wow, she's talking to my profoundly bruised little heart," and by the end no more wows, just a serenity that this beautiful, funny, profound person has changed your life."
Cindy Ehnes - CEO
California Children's Hospital
"We were blown away by Terry. One minute we were rolling in the aisles with laughter - the next we were touched by the sheer life experiences and perception used to convey the message. And what a message! A room full of nodding heads- hundreds of "ah ha" moments. The feedback was all the same, 'bring Terry back next year'."

"Terry’s life’s work has been to see our customers and employees as complete humans, and to educate us on how to truly connect with the whole person; it seems like the world has just caught up! As long as I have known her she has always been well ahead of the crowd.
There could not be a more relevant time for Terry’s work."
Christie Lockyer - Head of HR
Asia Pacific Boardriders
I am the global head of HR for the world’s largest vacation ownership company, based in the USA. I had the privilege of first meeting Terry Hawkins in Australia in 2014. I was on a business trip to our Asia Pacific operation, where Terry was engaged as a keynote speaker for a town hall. To say I was mesmerized by her presentation is an understatement. Terry had the entire audience, including myself and my fellow executives, laughing, crying, hugging and cheering. Her message was so inspiring that I stayed connected with Terry and engaged her for several town halls in our US business over the past few years. Her ability to cross borders and cultures and deliver the same impactful experience to her audiences is outstanding. Terry uses powerful personal storytelling combined with professional experience and expertise to drive home the importance of owning your attitude. I received so many emails and phone calls from all levels of employees and leaders about what a life changing experience it was for them.
If you are looking for someone who is different and dynamic, I would not hesitate to recommend Terry as an engaging and entertaining keynote or facilitator. You, too, should not wait to be great!
