“Dr. Pensa’s session on self-coaching strategies to manage litigation stress was one of the highlights of our conference. Dr. Pensa is a dynamic and compelling speaker who shared concrete strategies and insights on how to navigate this ‘taboo’ topic. Attendees commented that what they learned can be applied to many stressful life situations. Highly recommend her as a speaker for any medical conference! ”

 — Dr. Suzanne Schmidt, FemInPEM Conference organizer

"THIS SESSION WAS AMAZING! I took FURIOUS notes and I can imagine putting this information and material to use IMMEDIATELY. I loved that this topic was addressed in such an up-front way. It was densely packed with material that I will use in the future."

 

"An amazing speaker whose self-coaching strategies can be applied to so many stressful areas of life, not just litigation."

Feedback on Dr. Pensa’s workshop, “Managing Litigation Stress: Self-Coaching Strategies for Performance (and a Happier Life)”

"Thank you so much again for sharing your story and a truly inspirational talk - everyone was riveted…Everyone came up to me and told me how it was perhaps the most inspirational hour talk they ever heard."

 

EJ, physician and conference organizer

“As an ob/gyn, litigation has always been a fear of mine. The stress of a bad outcome is bad enough. But a lawsuit on top of that? I remember an anesthesiologist who took her life after a lawsuit. She had written a book about the case and I remember reading it, crying, and understanding why she had taken her life. The guilt. The lack of control. The isolation…

 

Dr. Pensa shared her darkest moments with a room full of strangers. I thank her for this vulnerability. Her story was powerful and Dr. Pensa is an engaging speaker. I did not expect to walk away from this talk feeling empowered, but that is how I felt. Her personal experience and perspective helped me see that there are tools and resources that are available. There is a way to survive a lawsuit without it ruining or taking away your life.”
