✨ CIRCLE OF COURAGE ✨

Melbourne edition: The Courage to be Seen

Facilitated by Louise Walker and Clare Elizabeth Dea

An immersive in-person experience for female entrepreneurs and leaders who know they’re at the edge of their next chapter and are ready to be more seen, heard and fully expressed.

You know there’s something you’re here to say.

Something you’re here to create and contribute.

But perhaps a part of you is still hiding, shrinking, holding back or waiting until you feel more confident, polished or ready.

The Courage to Be Seen is an invitation to start taking up more space.

To trust your voice.

To express what you genuinely think and feel.

To allow yourself, your work and your unique human presence to be witnessed by the world.

To be in the room with other inspirational female leaders who want to connect and collaborate.

If you’re ready to make courageous decisions for the next chapter of your business, leadership or creative work, then this is the room for you.

This is an event that will shift things for you.

✨ What is a Circle of Courage?

The Circle of Courage is a transformational in-person activation featuring real-life, gritty stories of courage, plus meditation, nervous-system regulation, self-enquiry practices, group coaching, powerful facilitation, embodied expression, authentic relating, storytelling, performance and play.

This special Melbourne edition, The Courage to Be Seen, brings together the work of Human Potential Coach and Circle of Courage creator Louise Walker alongside transformational performance artist, facilitator and best selling author Clare Elizabeth Dea.

Together, Louise and Clare will support you to explore what really gets in your way of being visible and truly seen in an AI filtered world.

This event is about becoming more present in your body, more trusting of your voice and more willing to share parts of you that others may judge.

This immersive 3 hour experience is curated to ignite your courage, crack you open, stir something deep within and call you forward into your next brave becoming in your business, leadership and life.

✨This is for you if . . .

There’s meaningful work you’re here to do this lifetime and you’re ready for the next chapter to:

Launch an exciting project, offering or new business venture
Create ground-breaking events, workshops or retreats
Speak on stages, panels, podcasts or video
Share your unique voice and message on social media
Tell more compelling stories about your work and lived experience
Communicate with greater clarity, authority and emotional honesty
Become more comfortable receiving attention
Stop filtering, rehearsing or editing yourself into a version you believe will be accepted
Take up space in meetings, conversations and rooms without apologising
Make brave choices, stand in your power and speak up
Become the known face and voice of your work
Take the leap and “do the thing” you’ve been putting off
Attract more exciting opportunities
Make more money from your creative expression

Maybe you’re already successful and capable, but something inside you is still holding back the fullness of who you are.

Maybe you know what you want to say, but you just keep over-thinking how to say it.

Maybe you worry about being judged, rejected or misunderstood.

Maybe you believe you need to be more polished, experienced or certain before you have permission to be seen by more people.

If you’re lacking clarity, confidence, support or the courage to let yourself be fully witnessed, then The Courage to Be Seen is for you.

Together, we’ll do important self-enquiry and experiential work that allows you to understand what has been blocking you, question the beliefs you’ve been treating as truth and practise showing up differently.

Being seen is an act of courage, self-trust and authentic leadership.

You are here to make a difference in the world.

You weren’t put on this planet to feel stuck, play small, hide your gifts or dilute your message.

It’s time to be courageous.

✨ A special Melbourne activation

Circle of Courage events have toured Australia and travelled to Mauritius, Fiji, New Zealand, England and Florida, receiving incredible reviews.

This special Melbourne edition has been created for women who are ready to develop the courage to be seen, heard and fully expressed in their business, leadership, creativity and life.

It will be held on Friday November 6th 7-10pm at Take Care Studio (Enrollment 6.45pm)

✨ What’s included

Raw, real stories of courage

Louise and Clare will share personal stories and lessons around courage, visibility and transformation, designed to move, open and remind you of what is possible when a woman stops hiding.

Meditation and nervous-system regulation

You’ll be guided through grounding embodiment practices so you can feel calm, present and connected enough to be genuinely witnessed.

Group coaching and powerful facilitation

Louise will support you to recognise the fears, stories and outdated beliefs that have been keeping you small, silent or hidden.

Embodied voice and expression

Clare will support you to move away from your critical and judgemental thoughts and into the full creative potential that lives in your body.

You’ll explore your physical presence, breath, voice, eye contact, stillness, responsiveness and energy.

This is about discovering how it feels to be fully present and alive.

Authentic connection

You’ll experience honest sharing, courageous conversations and meaningful connection with fellow entrepreneurs, leaders, creatives and truth-seekers.

Play, spontaneity and creative courage

Many of us have learned how to behave professionally, say the appropriate thing and appear competent.

But somewhere along the way, we lose touch with spontaneity, curiosity and play.

Live Performance

Weaved into this event, Clare will share her musical magic

✨ This event will support you to:

Recognise what is really blocking you from being seen
Understand how fear and self-doubt show up in your body
Take up space without apologising or shrinking
Speak with greater clarity, confidence and authority
Express your ideas, opinions and vision more boldly
Become more spontaneous, playful and creatively courageous
Connect more honestly and deeply with others
Create connections with potential clients, collaborators and friends.
Share your uniqueness rather than trying to create a polished, generic personal brand
Take action before you feel completely ready
Leave with a courageous visibility commitment for your business, leadership or life

Ultimately, this is about becoming more magnetic to your ideal client and authentically you.

In an increasingly AI-driven world, polished content is everywhere!

What cannot be replicated is your particular human presence: your stories, quirks, humour, perspective, emotionality, physicality and lived experience.

Your uniqueness is a key part of your power.
