CLIENTS and REACTIONS Commonwealth Club of California (San Francisco) “Michael was the impetus and leader of a popular program in February. Members were intrigued by the information they received as well as by Michael’s very personal and inspiring input.” ~ Patty James, co-chairwoman Health and Medicine Member-Led Forum Boston College (Chestnut Hill, Mass.) “My students were thoroughly engaged not only by Michael’s grasp on his topic, but by his humor and infectious enthusiasm." ~ Belle Liang, associate professor "Michael, I wanted to thank you for your transparency today. Although our class is geared towards adolescent development, today you have helped me in my adulthood development. It is refreshing to have open and genuine conversation." ~ Sean Guthrie, student Pine Manor College (Chestnut Hill, Mass.) "Michael’s presentation was precisely what we were looking for, and we’ll invite him back, happily.” ~ Ieshia Karasik, director of career development Rainbow Lifelong Learning Institute (Arlington, Mass.) “Interesting, engaging, and thought-provoking. I definitely recommend him.” ~ Kathleen Hennrikus, director Phillips Exeter Academy (Exeter, N.H.) "Michael’s visit included not only an all-school address but meetings with three smaller groups. The breadth and content of his knowledge was provocative, and to many students, vital. Most effective was the profound authority of his personal journey. He provided facts about addiction in general and food addiction in particular, solid knowledge about available support for those who struggle with food, and compelling personal reflections." ~ Robert H. Thompson Middletown (Conn.)
