“What a great salon discussion we had today! Jackie, you were absolutely awesome! Thank you so very much for all the heart and soul you put into this. We felt it and it matters! Also, loved having so many coaches join in on the call, even if you didn't get to watch the movie first (like me, oy!). I got to enjoy the conversation and I know I learned heaps from everyone, even those of you who didn't share. It's the energy that counts and the connection is inspiring in itself!”
—Heidi C., Flickville Community Visionary Coach
“I was introduced to Jackie Lent’s film salons shortly after my husband’s death. At that time the idea of partaking in any social activity was frightening. I was amazed by Jackie’s ability to put everyone at ease and the respect she had for each participant. This was 15 years ago and I have never ceased to marvel at Jackie’s ability to encourage people to express their feelings. The possibility of trading thoughts with people from all over the world through live tele-salons is truly exciting.”

“I want to thank you for bringing your incredible Reel Power Salons to our Temple. The first time I attended I was amazed at how drawn in I felt—and I hadn’t even seen the film. I loved your encouragement to share my point of view, which was directly opposite of the other’s. That was fascinating for me and I came to see clearly that one nerve may be touched in me while it may strike another person very differently. So this becomes support to express who I am. I loved it! And so did everyone else because the comments over heard at the end of the salon were ‘When is she coming back?’”
—Florence L., Temple Emmanuel Great Neck, NY
“Sometimes the movie rates only two stars, but Reel Power Salons are always a four-star event.”
—Bob B.
