She was always a little bitty thing with a big heart and an even bigger laugh, but what I really see in her now is her amazing strength.<br> Tumbling from the pinnacle of success to the depths of despair, she was able to pick herself up and see her misfortune in a positive light--as a way to help others--even with a five-pound lock box around her ankle. If I could use just one word to describe her it would be authentic. She is the real deal."<br> --Agnes Santomenno, Owner, Reprosa Panama Jewelry and Columbian Artifacts<p> "I am the oldest of Leesa's three children. I struggle more than most, but I love my mom and I know she loves me, and this is her story. It's not about me, it's not about her. It's about how regardless of your hardships or circumstances, you can endure and move past and through heartache, troubles and things you never thought you could live through. It's the rainbow at the end of the storm.<br> She has never been one to sweep anything under the rug--never let me get away with that. So, here she is now, wanting to help you or anyone who has gone through the most devastating, challenging time of your life. She definitely knows how to pick herself up and loves showing others how as well. That is her passion. She has a sincere love for people. I know you will get so much out of reading this book. It will help you get over anything that is keeping you stuck in pain, embarrassment, or any other obstacle that convinces you that this is as good as it gets."<br> --Taylor Wehrli<p> "Well, really what can I say? I met Leesa a few years back and as you know, in the real estate business you meet many people from around the world, different personalities, different traditions and cultures. She is, for a southern word, a 'hoot, ' but a very smart, sensitive, truly caring person who will take a breath and listen to you when you are expressing yourself in business or personally. She never judges and is an all-around very sweet and caring person who has had many trials in life, but they have made her strong, understanding, and appreciative of every day in life. As most of us know, there is something in our lives that usually 'makes us or breaks us, ' and thankfully, it has made Leesa into the beautiful soul she is. May reading her book bring 'POWER' to everyone because we ALL deserve a peaceful and strong journey through life."<br> --Donna Knowles, VIP Real Estate, Columbus, GA<p> "I love...love...loved this book! I do have to admit that upon reading the title of the book, I thought, 'another self-help read, ' but instead, I was truly inspired and connected with the author's emotions. Overwhelming fear, rejection, shame, and humiliation are conquered with love, faith, self-respect and a willingness to continue life's wonderful journey only to discover the true meaning and purpose as to why we are here. It is to leave a traceable, everlasting imprint and renewed emotion, along with healing and gratitude. The author's rawness and vulnerability provide the reader with the desire to emerge from the darkness and into the light with renewed optimism and hope. Self-forgiveness allows us to push past the highest peak with relentless force and emerge into a valley of restored purpose, empowerment, humility and a profusion of self-worth and love."<br> --Estela Williamson, Prolific Real Estate, San Diego, CA<p> "I finally understand the depth of hardship my mother endured, and more so, how her persistence lead to strength in such trying times. Get Over Being Humiliated is an epic torn between her battle with the grips of shame and chagrin, and the renewing power of family and relentless ambition."<br> --Thomas Ward, L.A. County Firefighter<p> "I knew Leesa when she owned and operated her successful real estate company. I worked with and for her for many years. Regardless of title, degree or status, she is the same loving person...still always wanting to give.<br> This is a story and account of rise and fall, success and failure, depression, rut, loss of her entire existence and how she rose again. Guaranteed, she can definitely help you."<br> --Phillip Snelling, Owner, Advanced Carpet Cleaning, Tracy, CA<p> "When Leesa told me about her book, <i>Get Over Being Humiliated</i> I was intrigued, so I started reading, and could not stop. It is a powerful biography describing the contrast from being at the top to eventually falling, and even enduring lawsuits by clients.<br> This is a blueprint for change and creating a better life. I love her resilience as a strong businesswoman and admire her courage."<br> --Aileen D'Andrea, Retired Paralegal<p> "When Leesa says in her book that she cares about you as her reader, she really does!<br> I 'met' Leesa through various Facebook group posts while working on our books. We could tell from the start that we were kindred souls. We eventually sent some private Facebook messages back and forth to encourage and support each other through our book writing process. She really did understand what I was going through. I wondered if she would be 'the real deal' when we met in person. Wow! It was like we had been friends for life. Her love, compassion, care and sensitivity, wisdom and great sense of humor came pouring out. She really did 'get' me and my life situation and loves me like a sister. Leesa really does 'get' you and your life situation, loves you like a sister or brother, and wants to help you get over humiliation."<br> --Rita Pampel, Author, <i>A Parent's Care: Creating a Loving Balance for Family & Aging Parents</i><p> "Reading this book by Leesa will inspire you in many ways.

Leesa, you have a great story and I wish you the happiest final chapter in your life."<br> --M. Camero, Postal Annex Owner, Glendora, CA<p> "I've been reading this book all day. I've cried several times. I can relate so much. What comes to mind is Isaiah 61:3 'HE gives us beauty for ashes.' You have overcome so much I'm sure you are a stronger person because of it. Thank you so much for sharing your story. From California to Georgia your story gives others hope. I'm looking forward to meeting you in person soon. God bless you!"<br> --Becky Ann Wright, Medical Technologist<p> "I loved how open and raw the author was. It made me feel like I'm not alone. Totally relatable regardless of your circumstances.

Willing to expose the deepest part of her own shame in order to connect with the reader on a sincere level, offering guidance and solutions for the silent pain of humiliation."<br> --Jonathan Steinberg, Retired Broker<p> "<i>Get Over Being Humiliated</i> is fantastic!
