“Kathi was the speaker for an IWN event (Intuit Women’s Network) at our San Diego. Kathi was a natural choice to invite to speak because of her expertise in organization and image consulting as well as her passion for Dress for Success. We feel that her presentation was relevant and her approach was great. We loved the Q&A and her willingness to answer questions on the spot! Intuit would love to have Kathi back to share more of her knowledge…we look forward to women coming together and feeling empowered. “
~ Intuit
“I’m the Corporate Executive Coordinator for a corporation based in Ohio. I was lucky enough to attend a workshop that Kathi gave us on how to get clutter out of our lives and get organized in our office. I’m not a natural-born organizer; I was born a creative leader, but when it comes right down to knowing where things are I have to have a system like this in place to excel at my job. So I’m really thankful for the book and the workshop and the change it’s made in my life. “

“Our members absolutely loved Kathi Burns’ Supercharge Your Image presentation. Everyone was able to take something valuable away from it…great, simple tips that will allow us to dress better for our figures and even have more organized closets.”
~ NAWBO
“This was the best attended program we’ve had this year. Your information was practical and useful and can be easily applied to everyone’s situation. We will definitely invite you back again.“
~ Professional Business Women’s Network
“I wanted to tell you how wonderful your program was! You had so many great tips for getting organized (and energized) that I know every attendee (myself included) went home ready to tackle their next decluttering job. The next morning when I helped deliver our temple truck full of donated items to Kindness G’mach Jackie, one of their volunteers and an attendee at our event, made a point of telling me how much she enjoyed and learned from the program. You were entertaining while imparting so much good information and helped us realize that parting with unneeded items, while of sentimental value, could be of so much more value to others in need. WE needed to hear that in order to let go of our “prized” possessions! Your presentation plus the opportunity to donate to a worthy cause created a most successful program! Thank you again for all your efforts on behalf of the Women of Beth Israel.”
~ Joan Gross
“I have had Kathi come to speak to a variety of teams when I was a Director of Marketing at Hewlett Packard. On one occasion she helped us understand a “busy mom’s” home life as we were designing a home printer. Her ability to bring our customer’s busy day and home setup to life gave us many new ideas for how to consider the design solution for this new printer. Kathi also came to talk to a team of women about executive presence. The bootcamp seminar was well received and gave the women some tips on how to present themselves appropriately and with confidence as they aspired to grow in their careers. I would highly recommend Kathi for any speaking engagement.”
~ Lori Lorenz, Vice President Marketing at American Specialty Health
“Loved what you said today about ‘space’ at the GOG Business Explosion. Without ‘space’, both physical and mental, it is harder to function. Still working on clearing space and I can always make it better, but I do appreciated the benefit that space provides. It’s sort of like a computer that needs a certain amount of memory just to do the simplest things and cannot do it without having sufficient memory or hard drive space.”
~ Dana Green Esq
“I attended a SCORE networking breakfast and to my relief, I heard Kathi Burns talking about getting rid of my muck. I was so inspired and ready after her lecture; I bought her book, her filing system and a few of hours of her time and went home with the pure determination to “manage my muck.” It began by reading through her book and then Kathi came and sat with me and helped me create my filing system. I enjoyed your presentation. So far my 11 yr. old goat has a new home, I sold 2 sleeping bags I never use anymore, I sold a single bed that has not been slept in since 2005 to grandparents that need it for their grandaughter and my list goes on. Thank you so much.”

“Not exaggerating! I don’t know if you can see this response, but if you can, I was just at this very minute trying to find your website and going through my notes of the webinar – Wow! I have yet to put your message into practice but your message was so meaningful to me. My husband is so overwhelmed by my clutter/memoirs. I am too, just don’t know how to let go. But you gave me a start.”
~ Tere Vasquez
“Thank you Kathi! I truly enjoyed your talk and so did everyone else I spoke to (: This is a tough crowd, so getting such an enthusiastic response is no small feat! Hopefully we will have an opportunity to work together again, however, in the meantime, stay safe.”
