“Jacalyn Burke is a gripping, dynamic and thought provoking writer. Her knowledge of her field is unparalleled, and she brings an unyielding compassion to the way she sees the world. She also writes from the heart, from a sense of connection and humanity, so that her words are never simply for herself, but always aiming to pull us closer together. In an ever more divisive time, her skills are a curative.”

– Todd Komarnicki, Writer, Producer: Sully; Writer, Elf

“Jacalyn is a beast … having the rare ability to uncover the story, and communicate it in the voice you always knew you had but couldn’t find. Perceptive, smart, kind, humble, patient … and so much more. Her guidance and understanding of when to push for more and when to back off is uncanny. Proud to count her among the few people in the world that can help me find MORE Inside myself.”

Simon Keith, Entrepreneur, Celebrity, Athlete

“Jacalyn Burke is immensely creative, resourceful, and a joy to work with. We have worked together on projects for several years and I am always amazed at the high standards she hits!”

– Maryann Karinch, Publisher Armin Lear Press
