THE WOMANSPEAK APPROACH

Find Your Voice.

For too long, public speaking training has fostered a masculine model of what leadership and professionalism looks and feels like. This can have a detrimental effect on the self-esteem of women and girls who desire to speak up and lead.

They look around at masculine leaders (male and female) and subconsciously think to themselves:

“I can’t be a leader because I don’t look or feel like that.”

or

“I have to hide or suppress parts of myself in order to speak up and be taken seriously.”

This sparks feelings of self-doubt, a lack of valuing the wisdom within, and a resistance to speaking up. It erodes a woman’s sense of inner freedom to lead and share her mind publicly.

It’s time for a public speaking training that supports women in harnessing the power of their feminine energy, and in being fully who they are, as they stand up to speak, lead and change our world.

WHY IS WOMANSPEAK SO EFFECTIVE?

Our unique practices help women to re-wire their nervous systems so that speaking up becomes an experience of safety, power, joy and freedom.

Women will have the opportunity to spend time in nature and in the vibrant and fresh San Francisco Bay Area. You will come to gather with other extraordinary women and discover a whole new level of freedom and power in sharing your voice.

The Foundation Course is a weekend filled with deep communion with nature and other incredible women, as well as a deep dive into clarifying your core message, learning practices for sharing your voice authentically and effectively, and gaining the pieces to structure the talk you’ve always wanted to give.
