Speak from the Heart: Be Yourself and Get ResultsIn Speak from the Heart, Emmy Award-winning broadcaster, newspaper columnist, and motivational speaker Steve Adubato reveals the secrets to being a great communicator -- with a program that will dramatically change the way you talk, listen, and connect with others.

I didn't realize how much your sacrifice equaled and even exceeded that of the men.
