    Dr. Rhodes is a truly remarkable leader. I came to learn of her through my degree study. Love from South Africa. As a young male student, she truly inspires me to be the best version of myself. Thank you.

    Thank you for sharing your story. Very inspiring and uplifting. The emotional rollercoaster that comes along with what was discussed is challenging. However, hearing your story and others helps those behind you to keep the right mentality and push forward. Thanks again.
