Testimonials
"I can’t tell you how much it means to us to have someone like yourself speak at Gemini Health Care Group's fundraising gala where hundreds of our friends and supporters were present . Through your words, you truly inspired all of us and exemplified the true meaning of philanthropy. It is amazing how people respond when the audience has the insight of someone who has truly lived her life as a philanthropist and practices what she preaches. Your captivating personality and approach, without a doubt, grabbed the audience's unfettered attention. A speaker's job is to call the audience to action, and you did just that, and may I add, you did it beautifully. Your ability to touch deeply the audience's hearts so they can connect with the mission of Gemini Health Care was one of the reasons we had a successful fundraiser. For that my friend, you have my heartfelt appreciation and eternal gratitude."
~Dr. Ebba K Ebba, Founder and President Gemini Health Care Group ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Sehin came with her elegance and beauty to a filled to capacity workshop at Mt Hermon Conference Center to speak to the women of Abundant Life Christian Fellowship. She shared her knowledge, wisdom and expertise on health, beauty and fashion. It was easy to receive her words because one can see she is the product of what she teaches. Women went away inspired and encouraged that they ARE beautiful daughters of God! She showed everyone you don’t have to be rich to shop smart and dress nice. She also encouraged all to live and eat healthy and take care of our bodies to the best of our ability so we will enjoy the life God has for us."

what I love to do than excelling in something I am not called to do." - Sehin Belew |
"Thank you SO MUCH for coming and speaking! It was such a blessing to me to have someone with so much influence and knowledge come in and speak to the girls of our group! You were the first guest speaker I have ever had come and share, and you did such an amazing job… you made the whole process so easy and I really appreciated how prepared and passionate you were. So thank you! I could tell they looked up to you and respected you a lot. Many of these girls will remember that moment for the rest of their lives."

"Sehin is an amazing woman with an inspiring story – grew up in Ethiopia in a family with modest means to become Miss Ethiopia, earn a college degree with honors, and have a successful career as an author, model, consultant, and public speaker. She is a woman of deep faith and love for Christ, who makes for an inspirational speaker at church and community groups. And her story of the keys to success makes her a wonderful motivational speaker to business groups."

"Sehin's talk really put me at ease. As a Ph.D. student at Stanford, I am faced with problems every day. Her talk made me feel more comfortable with my problems. It put me in a mindset to be just okay with my problems. It provided me with more composure and grace. She not only directly conveyed some important, memorable points but also indirectly touched me through her passion," positivity, and charisma."

Sehin was one of our three speakers at the annual Silicon Valley Prayer Breakfast(SVPB) where we had over 700 people in attendance. She was the second of the three speakers. The other two were Neil Ahlsten, a former manager from Google who co-founded a company called Carpenter's Code, and Kirk Perry, Google president, Brand Solutions. Sehin was articulate and engaging. and was well received by the crowd. The leadership committee and I were pleased by her talk and stage presence. She was just what the event needed. I highly recommend Sehinas a speaker and as a person. If you invite Sehin to speak at your event, I know that you will not be disappointed.

Sehin came to speak to our postdoc, Ph.D. students and consulting professors at Stanford University. It was an oversubscribed event. She was able to empower the group and the audience absolutely loved her. Sehin shared with them insights that they can take with them for the rest of their lives. In addition, some of them enjoyed her presentation so much, they even asked if they can meet with her one-on-one after the event on future dates. Of course, as the organizer, she made me look good."
