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.
HOW IS WOMANSPEAK DIFFERENT?
