The Legg Mason VETS (Veterans Education, Talent & Support) and LEAD (LGBTQ+ Employees & Allies for Diversity)
Employee Resource Groups, invited Mo to share her personal story with us. Mo’s story was both inspirational and
encouraging, all the while being very entertaining. She is a gifted speaker who uses humor to bring ease and wisdom to an
uncomfortable topic. It was a powerful discussion that encouraged employees to think more broadly about how our
perspectives are flavored by experiences. Mo’s message is powerful...show up, be professional and don't make excuses for
being who you are. We talk a lot about being our ‘authentic self’ and her personal story brought this important message to
life.

Get ready to be inspired! Mo uses her strong leadership skills, professional development knowledge and experience to

Mo is the absolute best speaker we have had to date. She is most professional, polite, inspirational and motivating. If I had
the means to hire a professional coach, my choice would be Mo Barrett. Her pursuit of excellence, motivation,
accountability and giving 100%, backed by an amazing successful career, remain truly inspirational. Not only was her
presentation excellent, it was backed with personal success. She walks her talk.

Look no further for your next program emcee! Mo's meticulous event preparation matched with her on-site adaptability made her an amazing partner. Having worked with many speakers and facilitators, Mo stands out, not just for her ability to read and respond to the energy of the room, but in how she quickly and graciously adjusted to content or programmatic changes on the fly. Her comedic timing was an added bonus, putting everyone at ease, elevating the atmosphere, and enhancing the overall experience for our attendees. Mo's collaborative nature and commitment to excellence were instrumental in ensuring the outstanding success of our event.

Mo Barrett is one of a kind. She’s a witty, a terrific public speaker, and a most engaging master of ceremonies. She’s quick, creative, and extraordinarily funny. More so, she is one of the most relatable people I have ever met. She has served her country as a Col in the USAF. She works with young people to get them excited about the history of the United States. If you are looking to energize your team, I suggest you call Mo. She’s the real deal.

Highly recommend Mo for your next event. She was the emcee at the Medical Missionaries fall festival. So many people commented on what a treat it was to have her. She was funny, witty, and pulled together the program so well. She is truly gifted. She was able to connect and engage with a crowd that ranging in age from 2 - 92, keep them laughing and entertained. She connected with them in such a way that people wanted to hang out with her after the event was over. Mo, you are so loved! Looking forward to collaborating with you on future initiatives such as retreats for Women and Veteran Executives (WAVES) and the Coast Guard.

It was an absolute blast having Mo Barrett, a catalytic comedian, speak at a client's event celebrating Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Month. Her ability to make people laugh while engaging everyone (even on Zoom) is her superpower. Mo’s true talent lies in her ability to connect with all audiences, inspiring them to find laughter in any situation.
