"What struck me most was how immediately Luvvie's authenticity resonated with the room. She was personable and humorous, but not at the expense of substance. She came with real anecdotes and concrete examples of what people can actually do to show up as changemakers in the rooms they're already in. One colleague told us her talk gave her chills. That type of feedback made clear this was something that genuinely landed."
