“Barbara Henslee narrates with an intimate, upbeat delivery and a sunny Southern warmth that feels like being personally recruited to the Mary Kay empire. Her voice suits the material perfectly, drawing listeners into a bygone era when women built empires through gatherings around kitchen tables and on front porches, long before they could open their own bank accounts. Henslee never oversells, just gently persuades, mirroring the company’s own quiet pitch to millions of women that economic independence and personal transformation were within reach. The balanced treatment of the realities of multilevel marketing, alongside the truly inspirational story of founder Mary Kay Ash, make this a compelling listen for anyone curious about the often mocked world of direct sales. Henslee’s warm, unhurried narration makes listeners feel like the next success story could be theirs.” – Jennifer Dowell, Kirkus Review of Selling Opportunity: The Story of Mary Kay

“Barbara is an author’s dream. Her preparation was impressive, the authenticity of her accent was unquestionable, and her understated delivery was the ideal translation of my on-page writing style. My book could not have had a better narrator.” – Mary Lisa Gavenas, author of Selling Opportunity: The Story of Mary Kay

“Barbara is an absolute pleasure to work with. Her presentation is expertly done, bringing one fully into the story.  You are drawn into the lives of the characters as they move from a disastrous life to one filled with hope, joy, and promise.  I hope that we have another book in the future that will match her talents and style.” – Marianne Daugharthy, Administrative Director of Advertising,  Pacific Press Publishing Association
