"I have had the pleasure of knowing Cathy Motley-Fitch for more years that I will state! Cathy was the keynote speaker for a women’s conference I coordinated in 2019. She had the audience captivated! The audience absolutely loved her. In addition to being a highly experienced and well articulated speaker, Cathy is a talented and accomplished singer, entertainer, writer and an outstanding teacher. I am in awe of her. Is there anything she can’t do?!"
