"What I love most is the safety and security of the room! The authenticity of what Detra speaks on and what she brings to this event. I also love the fact that there are so many women from around the country, different ages and walks of life, that we all find common ground when we step into the room."

"I enjoyed it was very genuine. You had an agenda but you just allowed it to flow. It was ok to go off script and just let people speak to get out what was necessary. We had business to handle and then there was time to relax and have fun. I loved every second. It was necessary for me. If you only knew how necessary this was for me. Im excited and scared at the same time whats next me."

"My key takeaways are that I have broken barriers and made strides since last year (I brought last year’s booklet and made continuation notes). I still have such a long journey and know I am in that valley, but I know HE is continuing to bring me back giving me the people, the surroundings and all that I need from this event. I also felt more connected this year, not just from many of the same women attending, but just a feeling that is right for me. I walked out of 2024 and 2025 not the same! I also feel like the challenges of Detra’s assignments were a little easier to tackle after this year. I’m taking baby steps and feeling more empowered."

"#iSpeaklife 2024! What a time! What a time! Holy Spirit moved in the room and what a great and awesome time in the Lord. Detra, you are an amazing beautiful woman of God. The Sit Soak Seek time with God was a blessing to me and I will be incorporating it into my self care journey😊 I was in the room last year because I was invited; however, this year I was in the room because I desired to be there and I’m so glad I had an opportunity to be in the room one more time, and it was amazing. praise God for the opportunity to be amongst some great women looking forward to being in the room next year 2025❤️"

"iSpeakLifeLive 2024 was amazing!! 

I asked God, before I left Thursday, that I not return home in the same manner in which I departed.  Well, God used Detra to set me free in areas that I have been stuck in for years!  I had allowed my childhood trauma to keep me hidden and going in the same cycle.  No more!  The cord is broken and the bridge is burned.  I’m not all the things that were spoken over me or done to me! I’m fearfully and wonderfully made by Abba Father and he loves me unconditionally!  Moving forward, I will give under the direction of the Holy Spirit to prevent being taken advantage of.  I am a giver at heart but my “feelings” will take a backseat. I can’t help everyone!  Everything that has happened to me God will use for His glory. Nothing will be wasted!  I am forever changed and truly grateful ❤️"

"Detra, first I want to THANK YOU for your obedience to Father God in creating such a safe community. Where we can come share and encourage each other. Where you pour into us and most importantly you allow us space and time to hear from God. Sit Soak and Seek is powerful. White space is powerful. If you are reading this and don’t know what I’m talking about then come out of hiding and be in the house next year at I Speak Live 2025. You got to be there!"
