<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:rgb(31,73,125)">Would Colin be a good keynote speaker to open our county’s Women’s Financial Conference? I guess, I also need to ask how affordable he is! We are holding the conference at UW Washington County campus, so this
might be a way to encourage college student attendance in addition to the general public.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<a href="http://www.colinryanspeaks.com/" target="_blank">http://www.colinryanspeaks.com<wbr>/</a> was one of the speakers at the last NSCFW summit in June. I wanted to share with all of you what an amazing speaker and resource Colin has been for our team of financial peer mentors!
I wanted my mentors to really connect with their peers and share their experiences in our presentations more. Colin was such an inspiration to all of us and his workshop allowed us to be able to practice and try out some stories with his help and critique.
Wonderful training! My team is pumped and has made a noticeable difference in their presentations and relatability; with a new surge of energy and confidence!<u></u><u></u></span></p>
