Jon Millerhagen, Executive Director - Minnesota Elementary School Principals' Association
Jessica Cabeen is an outstanding presenter! I have had the pleasure of attending a large session she presented at a national conference. It was energizing, informative, practical, and inspirational. She is adept at speaking to classroom teachers as well as school and district administrators. We invited her to speak at one of our major educational conferences and the feedback we received from attendees was phenomenal!
Dr. Jeff Zoul, President - ConnectEDD
Jessica is not only an incredible leader, and speaker, but she is truly an outstanding facilitator of adult learning. She has served as a facilitator in our Minnesota Principals Academy at the University of Minnesota for the past five years and also assisted the Minnesota Department of Education and the Minnesota Elementary Principals Association in launching a PK-3 Academy for Minnesota leaders. She engages adult learners where they are at and helps them to grow in a safe environment.
Katie Pekel, EdD, Coordinator of Educational Leadership and Policy - University of Minnesota
Jessica delivered an engaging morning of dialogue with our kindergarten team that affirmed, provoked, and challenged past practice and future planning. Jessica's ability to be vulnerable as she provided insights into her own educational journey as a parent, as a mother, and as a leader afforded her the needed credibility to resonate with our teaching staff and their administrators. Jessica's use of humor and candor were appreciated and left lasting impressions that continue to have meaning ripple effects on our planning for "what's next?" for our youngest learners and their teachers and school leaders.

Brian G. Seguin, Assistant Superintendent of Instruction - School District of the Menomonie Area
Jessica provided two exceptional keynote presentations, covering parent engagement and self-care, to over 500 participants at our Early Childhood Education and Behavioral Health Summit. Both presentations were engaging, motivating and from the heart. Personally, I walked away with a renewed passion for working with kids and some excellent strategies for prioritizing and organizing my life. The feedback and reviews that we received following the event couldn't have been better. We even had several participants request her contact information. She is a five-star presenter and we have her to thank for the success of our event.
