Feedback From Fans
"Dear Dr. Condren, A personal thank you for your contribution to the 2007 Massachusetts Conference for Women. Many forces are involved in bringing the Conference to fruition each year, but it simply would not have been possible without your support... Thanks to your contribution, our Conference sold out with 5,000 women, who were able to experience an incredible day of personal and professional growth... The outpouring of gratitude and praise throughout the Commonwealth has been overwhelming, and with your help, a strong foundation has been laid to ensure we build on this year's success. We look forward to working with you on next year's Conference. Together, we will ensure that the Massachusetts Conference for Women continues to be the premier educational and networking event for the women of all ages and backgrounds." –Warm regards, Gloria Cordes Larson, Esq., President, Bentley College; Carol Fulp, Vice President, Community Relations, John Hancock Financial Services, Inc.; Heather P.

"I asked Debra to moderate a panel of intergenerational working mothers and daughters based on her wonderful book, Ambition is Not a Dirty Word. Debra is incredibly insightful, inspiring and unabashedly for a woman's right to soar as high as her ambitions and dreams want to take her. She rightly notes that more times than not, it's not the so-called "glass ceiling" that's holding women back, it's our own misplaced guilt and fears and squashing of the very dreams that make up who we are. She personally inspired me, and I highly recommend her book to all women." –Tracey Segarra (Miller), Director of Marketing, Citrin Cooperman & Company, LLP
"Dr. Condren is an eloquent writer, speaker, and entrepreneur who is dedicated to empowering women reach their potential. Her inspiring book Ambition is Not a Dirty Word is a must read for all women who wish to "grab the golden ring" without the guilt and stereotypes that society has bestowed upon ambitious women. I highly recommend Dr. Condren for her books, services, and expertise in this challenging but inspiring field." –Jennifer Melnick Carota, Executive Director, Schooner Youth Center; Owner, BHRS Consumer Product Reviews, The Gift Therapist.
