We had a marvelous time at Renessa’s training. Everyone from the stewards to the supervising chefs were impacted. We laughed, we bonded and, more importantly, we raised the bar on our leadership and communication skills. We even keep our bandanas in our classroom and computer bags. People ask what it means and we say it reminds us that we are part of a team. We will definitely do this again!
– Benjamin Velasquez, Executive Chef, Carlos Rosario Culinary Arts Program
The decision to move from leading a church ministry in the South Pacific, come back to the States and try to transition into the national security field was difficult. I had a career in National Security before the ministry, but the requirements had changed drastically due to the tragic events of 9/11. Post 9/11, a whole new set of skills was needed to deal with the issues confronting our nation. It was like starting over. Renessa gave me the tools, the mindset and the strategies to evolve and thrive in a new working environment that I was completely unprepared for. She helped me to truly embrace the skills and knowledge I had developed in the ministry, understand how those leadership skills directly translated to a national security role, and properly communicate and quantify my experience as I pursued new roles. The skills she taught took me from wondering if my ministry experience had been a total waste to leading a key initiative for the White House National Security Team. Renessa brings clarity and she instills confidence. Anyone making a major career transition needs a lot of both.
– Peter Druckenridge, U.S. Government National Security Expert (name pseudonymed for security purposes)
Since working with you, I’ve become rather respected in my circle. I’m the person people come running to. I’m focused and able to make decisions right there and then. If it’s wrong, I admit it, re-solution it and carry on. How? Because I’m kinder and gentler with everyone around me. I’ve become attuned to people’s weaknesses and strengths, and because I’m gentle, they’ll do anything for me. I’ve become a blessing to others and help them get unstuck when they come to me. I’m seeing results everyday in people around me, and it’s amazing.

Renessa was one of only two people we invited to speak to our group. She was credible, current and delivered content that immediately impacted our attendee’s success. Hands-down, she was fantastic!
– Traci Allen, Event Manager, Body Language Institute
Renessa’s half-day seminar was fantastic! So much energy, so much wit, so much emotion…every single person was engaged – just what an event planner like me looks for. If you’re looking for a person who will have instant impact on your audience, make Renessa a part of your event.
-Kerry-Ann Powell, Founder and CEO Fullness of Joy Productions
Renessa simply dazzles! She’s a huge value-add to any audience. I highly recommend her!
- Terence Noonan, 5-Time Emmy Award-Winning Producer
On behalf of our Professional Women’s Group Program, I would like to express my gratitude for your sincere countenance to our women. They were very receptive and the feedback was tremendous; not to mention how authentic and meritoriously you connected with them. With the accolades aside we would be honored to have you back!
– Melissa Catherine Frazier, Project Manager, Dress for Success
Renessa took me from confusion to clarity in my business in one conversation. She listens. She knows the powerful questions to ask, and then she lasers in on what action is needed. I acted and the result – success!
– Suzy Manning, CEO, SIZZL – Women Who Ignite the World, Michigan
Renessa’s talk to the Georgetown students was fantastic! I learned how to project more confidence, to build quick rapport and strategically engage the people that I talk to. I put every one of your tips into action the very same week, and as a result, I stood out amongst my peers in a very intense interview process for the Patrick Healy Fellowship. The best part – I got the fellowship! Thanks again!
- Ayesha Ibrahim, Georgetown School of Nursing and Health Studies
Renessa knows how to deliver that one-two combination that will jump start you into action…she’s worth every penny!
- Jose Jimenez, Social Worker, New York
When I heard Renessa kick off our Leadership Roundtable, she became the definite choice to open our “Leadership at the Top” student event at American University.
-Finiana Joseph, Founder, Caribbean Professionals Network
Renessa has inspired, uplifted and jumpstarted the PEP in their steps. I look forward to working with Renessa in the near future. Thanks again!
– Cynthia Leach, U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs
I was incredibly impressed with your presentation. Your speaking style is phenomenal. I loved the way you engaged the audience. As a person who has given many academic and professional lectures, I tend to be overly critical of public speakers. I can truly say that you have been the best presenter invited to speak at one our meetings.
Maria Weaver-Ennis, RE/MAX Advantage Realty, www.mariasellsMDhomes.com
Renessa has been a tremendous source of inspiration to me. Her candor, sense of humor and determination to live her life by design is second to none! She isn’t afraid to challenge me to delve deep within myself to understand who I am, my relationship to my Creator and uncovering my deepest passions. Our sessions not only leave me wanting to do more with my life, but provide me with the tools that can help me achieve my dreams.
- Bridgette, Founder, Sarah’s Daughters Ministries, Florida
When it comes to the discipline to hit both your business or personal goals, this program is what everybody needs! Many of us can “gut it out” to a goal, but life totally changes when consistently hitting your goals just becomes who you are – period. Motivation has never been more fun – it’s a shame we make it so hard. My group LOVED this material and loved Renessa when she presented it!
–Vanessa Ferreira, Founder, NJ Unleashed, New Jersey’s Power Team
And More Testimonials…
How many times have I heard people say, “Just get over it?” It’s not that easy to get the head and heart on the same page, but you taught us how to take the emotional charge out of the situation and neutralize it. I was extremely impressed with how well you spoke. I can’t think of anyone who did a better job than you. You were poised…you nailed it all in a way that was seamless.
– Nancy, Entrepreneur, Maryland
Renessa Boley spoke to our group and really delivered value for the members. Her obvious preparation, integrity and desire to serve made her presentation very effective and I highly recommend her as a speaker.
- Dave Elliott, Baltimore/Washington Power Team, Maryland
Renessa has repeatedly proven to be an invaluable resource in helping me to guide and focus my thoughts. Just when I am ready to throw in the towel, she’s always there with a kind word and a gentle, unassuming spirit offering a fresh perspective on solving my problems. After every conversation we have, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and a renewed sense of purpose and spirit befalls me.
– LaTanya Holland, Director, Virginia
Thanks so much to Renessa Boley for her presentation on EFT. I now have a new tool to add to my repertoire to help me be more successful. Renessa is an excellent presenter. She addressed some initial skepticism right up front and explained this tool very effectively to the group. I look forward to applying what I learned!
– Allyson Hawkins, Business Developer, IBM, Maryland
Thank you so much for teaching me the EFT. This simple technique has been extremely helpful. I truly believe that the unconscious mind is much more powerful than our conscious mind, but we have been living in the conscious state for so long that we are afraid of unleashing the subconscious. The EFT technique is an easy, quick and successful method to break a pattern and continue to progress towards our individual goals.
– Aaron Wolff, Life Coach, Delaware
When last did someone ask you how you see yourself? Have you been dismissing your own dreams? Is there something you know you should be doing but can’t put your finger on it? Renessa did not create a plan for my life. Instead she drew out the dreams that God had already placed in my heart. She helped me define them, take them seriously, become confident in them and see myself today as I wish to be: a Nation Builder. Her advice on how to find God’s designated route to the fulfillment of those dreams was invaluable.
– Boto Best, Student & Activist, Oklahoma
It was an incredible experience. Thanks for taking the time to ask me questions and dig deeper to find meanings behind things I initially thought had no meaning. For example: it was interesting to learn that I procrastinate, not because I am lazy but because I am fearful. That is so true about me. I am afraid to move sometimes because I don’t want to be disappointed if I work hard at something and it fails. I never realized that about myself. This was so much fun! A little scary to have to face things I worry I am not yet ready to learn about myself, but definitely exciting.
– Janelle Osbourne, State Farm Insurance, Washington DC
The BIG! on Life seminar was tremendously insightful and inspiring. The seminar has left me with a sense of purpose and empowerment. I am more confident and focused without any reservation in pursuing my PhD.
- Steve, Virginia
It was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders and it felt really good to say out loud, “This is the real reason for my fears and why I’m stuck!” Now I have more confidence to move forward in this untapped market I had sat on for several years.
- Caprese Gordon-Hayes, Owner – Variations Corrective Skin Care, Maryland.
If I was asked to describe Renessa, I would sum it up like this…a “Skilled Brain Surgeon” who leaves no evidence of a scar. She has the ability with precision, to locate you, identify why you’re where you are in life. Before you know it, she opens you up and stitches you back to life. If there is any ounce of potential in you, she will laser in on it. One word of caution, if you are not serious about elevating your life, business, finances or anything that has to do with the “Next Level”, you need not apply. She is definitely destined to become a sought-after legend on life in her own right.
– Sandra, Salon Owner, Mississippi
I’m very glad I drove all the way from Pittsburgh for this event. I was definitely at a fork in the road and unclear about many things – my career, my health. It gave me clarity on a lot of things.
– Lekisha Middleton, Consultant, Accenture
I had an amazing time and emailed my friend right afterwards saying I really have some work to do! I’m not gonna just live BIG; I’m going to live OBESELY! I understand why I wasn’t doing what I wanted to do. Thank you very much.
– Katrina Hilliard, Teacher, Washington DC
This is exciting. This is my first BIG on Life event. It was life transforming. Renessa has an amazing ability to connect with people and draw them out. There was so much energy in the room. I’m so grateful. I feel like I’ve got the “juice” now. Thank you so much, Renessa! I look forward to working with you and doing great things.
– John Wade, RAND Corporation, Virginia
It is so ironic that your Big BUT book clearly speaks to me where I am in my life right now. God bless You for creating this. It will be helping a multitude of people during times of tremendous change. I would highly recommend your book to various people either considering pursuing their dream or exploring options such as a career change or starting their own venture. It clearly addresses and eliminates any possible excuse that might hold a person back.
- Monica Mahtani, Teacher, Florida
What resonated with me was the revelation that up to a few weeks ago, I was unmotivated to change my current, yet unfulfilling, circumstances because I can afford to. How pitiful – That really hit home! This program will help you to quickly and honestly see the reasons why you are not living the exciting and fulfilling life that you so strongly desire; It will help you to face your fears/excuses head-on and to develop practical solutions to overcoming those fears and excuse. If you are seeking a more satisfying, fulfilling, purposefully and rewarding life – Big BUT is a must-read!
- Lisa Brodie, Attorney, Maryland
I recommend that you take any program with Renessa! She is truly amazing!
- Tashena Moore, MalikJohn Investments
