Jane Jenkins Herlong

Jane Jenkins Herlong is a delight. Her fresh humor and engaging storytelling was one of the great highlights of our recent Conference. In addition to her outstanding keynote presentation, she is incredibly easy to work with. She made the pre-event planning seamless. I would absolutely hire Jane to present at my conference, and so should you.

We received excellent feedback from your presentation. Thank you for sharing your life stories and tying them in with the importance of well being. I appreciate your helping make our event a success and for doing a fabulous job of entertaining while teaching us how to enjoy life for what is is.

Jane is a motivational, inspirational, funny, energizing force for any event. She has spoken and entertained for Women in Government, my class reunion, and numerous repeat events. Jane will leave you wanting more.

We are still counting our blessings here in High Point, NC for our good fortune in having Jane Jenkins Herlong as our speaker for our Pink Ribbon Luncheon. We have about 525 women join us for our Luncheon event every May and this year, Jane was a HUGE hit. Women and men are still talking months later about our terrific speaker. Jane was more fun than we could have imagined and she delivers a heartfelt message of hope and courage formed by her life experiences. Jane keeps you laughing...no doubt the best medicine ever...and she makes you think about how fortunate we are to be who we are. Jane's sings like a Broadway performer and you can easily see why she was in the Miss American Pageant. Jane is Southern to the core and will entertain you with her southern charm. We loved Jane so much that we have invited her to come back in three years for our 15th Anniversary. We can't wait!

Jane provided practical and real-world advice on finding the positive outlook in negative situations. Through relatable stories, Jane demonstrated how using humor can turn difficult situations into great guest experiences-necessary skills in the customer service industry. The attendee evaluation responses were very positive with remarks commending Jane's inspirational hilarious and dynamic approach to life and her unique message delivery through a mix of songs and stories.

What an honor to have your join us for our AG Conference! I know the ladies and gentlemen present got a lot out of your two sessions. They loved visiting with you in person. I looked at the evaluations our participants scored your session, "excellent" or "good" which are our highest scores!

Within two minutes of presenting, Jane changed the entire energy in the room. She had captured everyone's attention. They were laughing, hanging on every word and the overall mood was happy. Through her brilliant (and hilarious) storytelling and inspirational tone, Jane delivered an impactful message to our group. They felt empowered, encouraged and motivated to own their "runway," because Jane told them not only how, but why and that she believed they could. I highly recommend Jane to any group looking for a reminder of the importance of laughter and believing in yourself.

Thank you so much for serving as our keynote speaker for the 14th annual Women's Health Event hosted by the Scotland Memorial Foundation. Jane's level of professionalism and expertise resonated with the 200 women in attendance. The laughter, empowerment, and good ole' southern singing in Jane's presentation left the women feeling they could conquer the world by being true to who they are, taking charge of their health while learning, laughing and loving more. As one participant reported "She was great. Just goes to show you can do anything you want to no matter where you come from" It was a pleasure to have Jane join us and meet our community. Book her for your next event you won't be disappointed. Additional Participant Feedback: "Laughter is good for the soul. Keynote speaker Jane J. Herlong was very inspiring a cheerful heart is good medicine" "She was very inspiring" "Jane was great and very inspiring" "Jane encouraged me to live with more humor and to keep moving to better health accomplishments"

MHIMA had the opportunity to enjoy Jane during our 2017 annual meeting. Jane takes commitment to a new level. With her humor, stories and songs she reminds us all to push forward and be your own person; rejoice in your journey, reflect on the trials, celebrate the truimphs and never forget it all. The laughs shared throughout the presentation were a clear indication on her connection to the audience.

"We were looking for someone with an agricultural background, humorous, and with a positive message at a time when it's not easy to be in production agriculture. Jane delivered flawlessly on stage and off. She was genuine, entertaining, and wonderful to talk to. She was one of the last people at our event, because everyone just kept wanting to talk to her more. You couldn't ask for a better speaker for our crowd."

"Jane used her Southern humor to both entertain and celebrate our unique eccentricities. Jane related to everyone in the room on a personal level, whether they were Southern or not. She managed to weave life lessons and motivation into her own personal stories of family, friends and the professional world."

We loved having Jane here at Emerson. She was such a breath of fresh air with her inspiring and funny stories. She was entertaining, engaging and kept good energy throughout the presentation. Her combination of singing, humor and life lessons made for an uplifting hour. She was so pleasant to work with and we enjoyed every minute of her visit. I would recommend to anyone to have Jane come speak at their event.

 Jane provides the perfect balance of entertainment and inspiration. Her life experiences allow her to connect with her audiences in a way that few professional speakers can. Our group thoroughly enjoyed her and appreciated the time she took to learn about our organization.
