What Schools Are Saying About Tasha
"Absolutely the best speaker we have ever had at our school and we have had former professional athletes speak to our students. Tasha is very engaging and the students get so much out of her discussion."
- Kent Kindschy, Superintendent, School District of Turtle Lake
“Tasha reached so many students at a deep level. Her story is inspiring, and I believe it gave “HOPE” to many students (and adults) who were feeling anxious and maybe even lost.”
Sam Graeve, Elementary Principal, Audubon Community School District (IA)
“Our middle school and high school students at GHV loved Tasha’s presentation and the message she shared with our staff and students. Our kids were engaged throughout the presentation, and they took Tasha’s message to heart. The following day, I circulated around the school and asked students for feedback. 100% of it was positive, and kids discussed the importance of PATH. In addition, it was so motivating to know that Tasha had overcome so many obstacles and did things she was told she would never be able to do again. I highly recommend having Tasha and Doug come inspire your staff and students!”
Shawn Miller, High School Principal, Garner-Hayfield-Ventura School District (IA)
What Students Are Saying About Tasha
"My high school students were still talking about Tasha's message of resilience and hope days and weeks after her visit! I heard many references from students to each other about the importance of identifying who is in their "pit crew" and the overall feeling of 'if Tasha can persevere, SO CAN I!!’"
- Shannon Donnelly, Principal, Somerset High School
Equipping Youth with Resilience
“My students and staff were very impacted by Tasha’s message. I have had so many approach me to say how touching and relatable the message was. We had students who often do not relate to others that were sharing their stories and opening up about their own struggles, this greatly helps us counselors in identifying resources to support these and all of our students. This was an overall fantastic experience.”
Callie Lindmeyer, High School Counselor, Two Harbors High School (MN)
“Tasha's message was both insightful and heartfelt, resonating deeply with our student audience. Her ability to convey emotion and connect with key themes left a lasting impact, and the students responded with enthusiasm and stayed connected to the whole presentation. Many seemed moved by her words, reflecting on their own experiences, and the atmosphere in the room shifted to one of thoughtful engagement afterward.”
Heather Thiesen, School Counselor, Sauk Centre School District
‘We provided a student survey to gather feedback – of that 90% of students who completed the survey felt the presentation was either informative or very informative. Some of the student’s biggest takeaways were: “That you need to hold on to hope and things will get better, but you need to persevere through that,” “There’s a reason for your existence,”“My biggest takeaway would be what it takes to overcome adversity and how it can be as simple as implementing just a few things into your life."'
Erin Fischer, 6-12 Literacy Coordinator, McFarland High School (WI)
"I would highly recommend any student group or school to invite Tasha Schuh to share her life story and motivational message. I have been in the education profession as a teacher and principal for 29 years and Tasha's presentation was the best I have ever heard!!!"
- Clark Olstad, Principal, PEM Middle School
Elementary Feedback
“I am beyond thrilled to share with everyone what an amazing experience Ellsworth Elementary School had with Tasha Schuh and her husband, Doug! They brought so much positive energy, enthusiasm, and hope to our school community. With confidence I can say that they were the best presenters we have had at our school. They used a beautiful combination of interactive activities, videos, and spoken words to keep the students engaged. Our students and staff are equipped to change our mindsets from “I can’t” to “yes I can!” We are blessed to have had this experience!”
Kayla Zimmer, School Counselor, Ellsworth Elementary School
“The assembly was amazing! I was close to tears by the end (and I don't cry easily). Tasha and Doug had such a powerful message that I think will stick with many (kids and adults) for a long time. They also did such a great job of keeping the kids engaged throughout. I think everyone really enjoyed it!”
Maia Forkin, Reading Specialist, Ogden Elementary School

“Today my life is better than it was before the accident. I can honestly say that I am thankful that I took that one step backwards. I would not go back if I had the opportunity.” -Tasha
