She also offers practical advice for anyone looking to make their mark through meaningful contributions, regardless of the scale. Whether you're a seasoned philanthropist or new to the concept of giving, Lisa's words will inspire you to consider how your efforts can have a deeper impact.

Dr. KDL ,

Phenomenal Amy

Amy Boyle stands alone with her amazing talent and commitment to bring perfect strangers together in order to showcase the impact these women have on society. Her desire to celebrate and support women while shining a light on the many hats that most of us wear is unrivaled. She knows that we are mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, and friends. She knows of our commitment to each of these roles and she has taught women to acknowledge our individual talents while saying OUT LOUD…I AM PHENOMENAL!!! Thank you so much! I met you as a complete stranger and slowly but surly you feel like FAMILY! Keep up the GREAT work!

Chitownkids ,
