What Ebony-Jewel Rainford-Brent's clients say
"Ebony had me hooked from the very start of her presentation. It was truly refreshing to listen to someone who had tailored their talk specifically to the audience in the room which consequently meant the content from: personal stories, to career progression, to techniques and advice on how to start structuring career development, was all wholly relevant, engaging and inspiring. I hope to follow Ebony’s motivational footprint, drive and determination "
"The dinner was a great success and Ebony’s ‘after dinner talk’ was excellent and I think that everyone attending must have been motivated by her enthusiasm for the game, and the way we can overcome problems as they crop up in life. She was so good in greeting and congratulating the players as they came forward for their trophies, and the two ladies (one the women's captain) who attended from my own club were thrilled to be able to chat with her, she was such an encouragement to them, and her ability to hold the audience and to interact with them was a joy to see."
