Interviewing Erykah Badu at AfroChic Cultural Arts Festival 2018
“Kim is an amazing presenter. We hired her to speak at the Halton Ontario Principals Council Elementary Administrator Conference. She spoke to a large group of school administrators and from the first second it was like having a visit with your oldest best friend. She has amazing charisma. Her presentation was informative, and gave us new lenses to look through, new quotes to ponder, new things to consider, even though the topic was one we have been exploring for a few years. I wanted her to be able to provide reassurance and support, along with knowledge, as in our role we have the challenging daily job of trying to support mental health in our students or in their parents it can often be frustrating, as the road to well being can be long, and sometimes not achieved in the time we know the child or family. She did a wonderful job of this, and I had nothing but positive glowing feedback from all of the staff members that attended our event.
