Testimonials

Amy Julia was the ideal choice to work with our school in the culminating event of our yearlong exploration of “Ability” as our school’s diversity theme. Working with parents and students, Amy Julia used her personal story as a lens through which others could engage with concepts of privilege, equity, love, and identity. Her words and her wisdom were powerful.
Rachael FloresDirector of Diversity and Multicultural Education, National Cathedral School
I could listen to Amy Julia speak all day. In addition to her extraordinary poise and thoughtfulness, she possesses a rare combination of clarity and gentleness which allows her to parse difficult subjects with real grace, such that ears are opened and walls come down. Prepared yet present, sharp yet full of heart, she is a communicator of the highest order.
David ZahlAuthor of Seculosity: How Career, Parenting, Technology, Food, Politics, and Romance Became Our New Religion and What to Do about It
Amy Julia is a compelling and engaging speaker. She speaks generously from her personal experience and encouraged our team to think about the various forms of privilege that impact our lives and work with students . . . The feedback from our faculty and staff was extremely positive, the biggest "complaint" was that they wished the session had been longer.
Jodi Reilly SojaHead of School, Indian Mountain School
Amy Julia has such clarity of expression in the middle of complexity. She has a graciousness of spirit that creates a place for all kinds of folks to gather in conversation.
David MayRector, St. Mary's Episcopal Church, Richmond VA
In a world of too much information on the one hand and too much sentimentally on the other, I am so grateful for a communicator like Amy Julia who both stimulates the mind and stirs the heart.
Corey WidmerExecutive Pastor, Third Church
Self-examination, confession, and transformation are three gifts God has given Christians to live a life full of meaning. Amy Julia's writing and speaking always challenges her audience to not rob themselves of a superficial life. Out of her self-examination, confession, and transformation she invites her audience on a journey to learn how to live a life worthy of giving it away.

Her unique gifting to be able to give words to our shared experiences allows her to be seen as a trusted friend and guide for the journey.
Jacky GatliffAssociate Pastor, Stanwich Congregational Church
Amy Julia is a brilliant writer who tackles difficult topics with wit, warmth and intellect. She connects with her listeners immediately as she shares stories of her personal journey to become more rooted in God’s love. She was the perfect keynote speaker for our women’s spiritual event. I highly recommend her.
Susan RountreeSt. Michael’s Episcopal Church, Raleigh, NC
A gifted communicator, Amy Julia combines razor-sharp intellect and pastoral presence which afford a much needed clarity to otherwise complex and contentious issues. For this reason and others, her voice has a particular relevance for our present moment.
