TESTIMONIALS

β€œIn fact, one of our national partners, LancΓ΄me USA, was so impressed that they brought Courtney in to speak at an event they held at their corporate offices in New York City.”
— Michele Bellso, Director of Marketing and Communications
β€œNot much can entice the adult learners at Seeds of Literacy to stay after class. But when students heard that airline Captain Courtney Schoch had overcome the same experiences that they’ve had themselvesΒ  β€”abusive relationships, dropping out of high school, being a young & single parent, unemployment & dead-end jobs, followed by crushing the gender barrierΒ β€” AND that she had run with lions, they couldn’t wait to meet her. They needed to see someone who had been through what they’d been through and had not only survived but thrived.

During my tenure at Seeds, I was delighted to bring her in as a guest speaker and success story on many occasions. These visits caught the attention of ProLiteracy, launching her into the national spotlight.

Courtney’s honest, no-nonsense approach is authentic and refreshing, and the story she has to tell is both heartbreaking and inspirational. She doesn’t sugarcoat her past and stresses that she owns her story – she doesn’t let it own her.Β  I’d highly recommend her as a speaker for any organization. Her story knows no boundaries”
— Katie Kucera, former Communications Director for Seeds of Literacy
