Really excited to see you guys again for Handmaid’s Tale. I have watched all your videos on that series though I’m not one to comment on YouTube often. I always appreciate your commentary on the deeper narratives of the show, often far deeper than the writers’ at times.

“

Kristen’s experiences and knowledge confirms her as an expert in her field.

“

The Good Doctors Kristen and Erin are always amazing! I’ve been in love with their YouTube channel and I’m so glad they have a podcast with all this amazing information and entertainment. Everything they talk about is not only funny and entertaining, but they share such valuable and much needed information with the world. One of my new favorite podcasts!

“

As a copywriter I’m conscious of staying on top of the shifts in language and learning/growing so I don’t perpetuate harmful stereotypes or culturally inappropriate phrases. I really liked how they gave concrete examples (and thorough explanations about why we don’t say those words anymore). So much of what we say is habit, ingrained in us from the way we were socialized growing up — and when we’re conscious of how these words impact others then we can choose to be mindful of what we say going forward. The Good Doctors are so genuine and create a safe space to explore our past behaviors without judgment. I enjoyed the back and forth banter and how they played off each other’s examples.

“

What is special about The Good Doctors’ training is that they do more than just talk, they involve us in the process.

“

Kristen was great at it … it made you think, it made you more aware it’s not one-way, it made me think that by continuing the conversation it will get the person, staff, board member to have to engage more with me and be able to speak about lots of scenarios they were not prepared to talk about – and throughout the conversation they may go silent.

“

I loved this training! I thought it was fun, informational, exciting, and entertaining all at the same time! I would have loved to have you as professors because I have no doubt that I would have stayed engaged during class.

“

After attending this training, I feel more confident in my ability to embrace a conversation around this topic. What I learned from The Good Doctors was to embrace the conversation from a place of kindness and non-judgement, with the recognition that we will get it wrong, but either being called out or calling someone else out is a first step to understanding and growth.

“

The presenter was fabulous! She was engaging and kind, so accepting and validated that no one is perfect, we all have flaws and to give ourselves more grace.

“

Dr. Kristen speaks from the heart. She doesn’t need prompts and talks to us, not at us! I thoroughly enjoyed her talk and the room was very engaged as she was speaking.

“

Thank you for all the knowledge and empathy! I love becoming a better person by watching your content!

“

If you are ready to listen to a raw, unfiltered and honest approach on Culture stuff you are on the right place. These ladies connect with their audience so freaking well. Get ready for open and candid conversations on topics that most folks shy away from. Love it!

“

The Good Doctors are so fun to listen to! Their humor is contagious, and their insights compel listeners to think and consider ideas from all angles.

“

Multi-model approach to learning! Interesting, fun and interactive. Challenges traditional beliefs and encourages critical thinking.

“

As a head baseball coach, the training provided a better understanding of how we as a staff may need to communicate with our student-athletes along with the concerns they may deal with on a daily basis. This training has made a difference in how I approach my work because I am more aware now of the communication differences amongst generations and am more intentional in using different strategies. What stood out to me from the training was The Good Doctors’ energy, passion, and knowledge of their subject.

“

Dr. Kristen is a powerful speaker whose passion for equity and changing the world is both contagious and empowering. Her facilitation approach allows for participants to not only walk away with new knowledge and concrete next steps, but to also feel supported on their learning journey and safe in exploring challenging ideas. We feel so honored that Dr. Kristen took time to support, teach, guide, and love our group of leaders, and I highly recommend her as a resource, speaker, and facilitator!

“

Much needed topic – I loved that it was interactive.

“

The Good Doctors of Abbey Research, Dr. Kristen and Dr. Erin are asking us to think and they are doing it with a kind, honest and fun loving way of being in the world. This is a must listen to all podcast libraries.

“

The Good Doctors are NEEDED in a world that needs courage and education of how to navigate conversations with love, grace, and curiosity. The information provided in our meeting was educational to create a safe space for our team. I felt growth of understanding just within our staff with the short time we had with them.

“

I have come to know Doctor Kristen as a game-changer who is doing for empathy what Brene Brown has been doing for vulnerability. If you’re in looking for an impactful speaker who will shift perspective, bring new ideas, and do it all with heart, she is the right choice.

“

Kristen and Erin have a wealth of wisdom to teach broadly and pointedly about honoring humanity by gaining understanding of others and their backgrounds. We were able to have open and honest dialogue about best practices for coaching our players and leading them as women. As a program, we feel collectively more equipped to progress forward to reach our goals of climbing the ladder daily!

“

The Good Doctors really opened my eyes to a lot of things I could be doing better to help others and think about how what we consume impacts society and culture. It feels like sitting down for a call with my two best friends over coffee, love them!

“

They are wonderful! Thank you! I would love to hear from them again.

“

I love Dr. Donnelly’s sarcasm. Her facial expressions are EVERYTHING! I do the same thing when I’m explaining something ... I love this channel. I come here after every episode! Thank for helping me better understand what’s going on! Subscribing!

“

Infusing humor into a serious subject. Such a wonderful, ENERGETIC, interactive presentation. I really appreciated the presenter knowing when to stop. My brain needed to absorb, focus, and process all the information.

“

With so many generations working together in the office as well as serving Gen Z as our primary audience, our team leaders wanted to create a space where our employees could openly discuss their preconceived ideas and perspectives while also learning how to show empathy to others. What stood out to me from the training was that it takes great intentionality to show empathy for someone we don’t fully understand. What I enjoyed about The Good Doctors training was the openness and practicality of their approach.

“

The Good Doctors not only educate me on a variety of different topics from world news and events to who would win a fight between Captain America or Batman, but they also bring a lot of humor and empathy to their teachings as well. I follow them on social, and am so excited they have a podcast (finally)!

“

After this training, I am more aware now of the communication differences amongst generations and am more intentional in using different strategies. What stood out to me about Dr. Kristen and Dr. Erin was how they were able to be personal and entertaining while also showcasing their level of knowledge on the topic.

“

 We have had speakers at these meetings before, but this presentation was the most interesting one we’ve had yet.

“

This training has helped everyone understand we each need to be more empathetic and mindful of the needs of different generations. Kristen and Erin demonstrated a unique understanding of the problem we are facing and were able to connect it to specific issues facing our industry. Since the training we have received requests from various coaching staffs to have The Good Doctors return and dig deeper into these issues with their student-athletes.

“

No matter what the setting or who the audience is, Kristen has an amazing ability to engage with people.

“

Kristen Donnelly is an exceptionally dynamic and thoughtful speaker. She commands the space while also maintaining an intimate connection with her audience. Her years of study and humble curiosity create the perfect container to talk about hard things. Her TEDx talk on tolerance is one of my favorite talks of all time. I highly recommend Dr. Donnelly as a speaker, educator and facilitator.

“

Erin and Kristen facilitated a dynamic discussion around expectations the next generation has regarding the workplace and how companies are rethinking growth strategies to address them at the SOCMA Summit in New Orleans. These ladies and their interactive approach captivated a standing-room only crowd of SOCMA members and industry leaders with not only their knowledge but also practical tips they can put into practice. Their expertise and innovative solutions were well-received and left attendees asking for more.

“

The talk was very informative and interactive. It allows you to be introspective and consider things we don’t usually think about regarding how we do inclusion.

“

I’ve been fortunate to be able to attend The Good Doctors’ workshop on the power of saying no (which ties into their podcast talk on the puritans). Drs. Kristen and Erin are so smart and funny and I’m so glad I can now listen to them on a podcast!

“

Dr. Kristen  brings so much to the table. From the second she begins speaking everyone is engaged. She uses humor and reality together in harmony. We thank Dr. Kristen for sharing her knowledge and passion with us last night. She was born to do this!!!

“

The reason I decided to partner with Abbey Research and specifically with Dr. Kristen and Dr. Erin on the topics of inclusivity and being a better human is because, well, they’ve done the research, right? They have the education. So that’s super important to me, but they bring a different element to every room that they walked into. They present these topics from a different perspective.

“

Thank you for the pronoun conversation! I am cis, she/her/hers and I am practicing addressing my pronouns on a daily basis.

“

What I liked most about this training was the honesty and openness, that helped us have a real day-to-day conflict discussion.

“

Kristen’s insight and ability to have the hard conversations is such a gift and she does it with such clarity and grace. She is an incredible thought leader and team player. I highly recommend her to my clients so they can consume her content to help build their empathy.

“

This talk helped show my audience the importance of actual self care and provided insight for them into where our longstanding culture of “hard work” and constant grinding comes from and why. It helped shift perspectives and planted seeds in the minds of the creatives that maybe they can do things differently and still succeed. Dr. Kristen clearly knows her stuff and has the ability to present it clearly, directly, and in an accessible way. She has the gift of taking what might be considered dry material and making it fun, exciting, and applicable to one’s life.

“

I loved their energy! Their passion made the content even easier to absorb!  Their thorough research really helped me understand a great deal more about relationships and being a better communicator. It was great that their style includes the mix of crowd participation with very informative slides, along with time for breakout sessions. I wanted to do another session with them immediately because of the wealth of wisdom they have combined with their relatable experience!

“

Great presentation and very fun. They are super animated and grab your attention and keep it the entire session.
