Take the time to delve back into your Personal Brand Story with this 2 hour workshop designed to help you communicate who you are, what you do and why it matters in a world of noise.

Upcoming Guest Speakers
Have you ever been in a conversation with someone you just met and want to exit the convo? Does networking fill you with slight anxiety?
We’re very lucky to have Alan join us to take us through his interactive, engaging and fun workshop style session all around having confident conversations. What we’ll explore:
93% of our communication is non verbal
How our thoughts, attitude and behaviour profoundly influence our conversations - the ball is always in our court, despite our default to (nearly) always thinking that it's the other person's fault
The critical skill of active listening
How to ask great questions
What a confident conversation feels like
Alan Mead- How to hold confident conversations
Chantelle Znideric - Discover personal branding through style
What you wear is often the first message you send before you say a word. Like it or not, it communicates confidence, clarity, professionalism and personality.
And for many people, particularly those in their 30s, 40s and 50s, this is where major things in their life and careers begin to evolve and they experience changes in their bodies, which can feel overwhelming and out of control.
Your wardrobe should support the person you are today and the exciting stage of life you’re stepping into. We all grow and evolve, and our style needs to evolve with us.
Chantelle will share her tips on how how to create a strong wardrobe, with many things that already exist within them.
Chantelle invites each guest to bring one piece from their wardrobe that you struggle to wear and she’ll help you style it on the day.
Hanna Mepstead - Running a business without a script
Marketing, mistakes and the messy reality of building something of your own.
Running a business rarely follows the neat plan you imagine at the start, or what we’re told “should” happen.
Hanna will explore the reality behind building something of your own: the marketing experiments that worked, the mistakes that didn’t, and the moments where you have to figure it out as you go.
Through honest stories and practical insights, Hanna will share how creativity, resilience and a willingness to do things differently helped her grow her own business and how you grow a yours without following someone else’s rulebook.
