Jess was one of the rawest and inspirational speakers the Edwards Business Students’ Society has hosted. We were very fortunate to have her at our Annual Business Formal in October 2018 which hosts over 350 business professionals, students, and faculty in Saskatoon. Her keynote address hit a chord with every person in the room. Jess has an incredible ability to connect with everyone no matter age, gender, or background. Attendees described her speech as “motivating and simply unforgettable.” You could only leave the room realizing that you can accomplish more than what you believed you ever could.

Jess will leave you inspired, motivated, and wanting to make a difference. We recently had her speak at our Rotary conference. We were in awe! Her story, her ambition, and the good she does in the community is everything ROTARY. Thank you, Jess!

Richelle Rogers

Hearing Jess speak was very inspirational. Hearing her story from how she came from basically nothing to being very successful is definitely motivating as a business student. After hearing Jess speak today, it is clear that you can be successful even when people are telling you not to go for your goals. Not to mention she was very interesting to listen to. Loved every minute of it!

I have been blessed to see Jess Tetu speak twice over the last 3 years. Every time she shares her tragically beautiful story, I learn something more about her, and about myself. She has more than inspired me to pursue my dreams and challenge my reality. Her journey truly offers a roller-coaster of emotion, and I believe that anyone who listens to her, can benefit from hearing it. Thank you, Jess, for sharing your past, present and future dreams with us. I look forward to the next time I hear you.
