An accomplished and flexible speaker, Carol tailors her topics to fit the theme and timeframes of your meeting, conference, seminar or retreat.
“Whenever I have worked with Carol for our Women’s Ministries program, she has been available, professional, flexible and prompt in her responses. As a planner, those are qualities I appreciate. Women respond well to Carol’s presentations. She injects humor and valuable content for women to ‘do life’ together—enriching and encouraging both our hearts and souls.”
“Carol Cool has spoken at several events including our Girl Talk and our Girls Weekend Away at America’s KESWICK. Carol is a pleasure to work with in preparation for each event. When she arrives at the event her warm and friendly nature immediately makes us confident of a wonderful time of ministering together. She prepares well to incorporate our theme and this is evident in her natural and polished presentations. Carol connects with our guests and they listen intently. We have even given her an honorary title of ‘Jersey Girl.’ We look forward to the next event when she will come and speak again!”
“It was both informative and refreshing to have Carol Cool speak to our group. She is very knowledgeable about the topic of personalities and delivers her presentation in a memorable and entertaining fashion. The handouts she used were effective and proved to be good takeaways from the meeting. We really appreciated the time she shared with us, and would not hesitate to invite her back.”
“I have thoroughly enjoyed hearing Carol Cool present her delightful insights on ‘Finding the Balance in the Circus of Life,’ which has encouraged me to take a closer look at my life and understand the importance of being more like a tightrope walker…staying focused on what is truly important while not allowing distractions, fears or doubts get in the way of living a more balanced and peaceful life.
