She Speaks Program September 2025

She Speaks: for women who want to stop holding back and start holding the room.

If you've ever found yourself:

• Struggling to find the right words at the right time (or saying too much at the wrong time)

• Saying ‘yes’ when you really mean ‘no’ - or vice versa

• Feeling overlooked for opportunities despite your experience and expertise

• Being labelled “emotional,” “too much,” “grumpy,” or “intense”...

Then She Speaks is for you.

What is She Speaks?

A high-impact learning experience for women who want to communicate with greater clarity, courage, and conviction and build workplace presence and power.

This isn’t presentation skills training (though it will improve your presenting). It’s a practical deep-dive into how gendered expectations shape how we speak - and how we’re heard. And it’s packed with tools you can use straight away.

What You’ll Learn

✅ How to start meaningful conversations (and keep them going).
✅ A simple tool to quieten your inner critic and boost your inner coach.
✅ Exact language for speaking up, handling interruptions and responding to inappropriate comments.
✅ Boundary-setting techniques that protect your time, professional reputation and relationships
✅ Body language and vocal skills that dial up your presence and power.

She Speaks is delivered to a maximum of 16 women for an intimate, high-impact experience. It includes:

1. Online Preparation Session (1.5 hrs)
Tuesday 2nd September, 12-1.30pm
Get grounded before the workshop, with a reflective exercise and practical pre-work.

2. One-Day In-Person Workshop
Friday 12th September, 9.30-4.30pm
Majestic Roof Garden Hotel, Adelaide

A dynamic, hands-on workshop covering four key domains:

🔄 Unlearn Gender-Based Messages

Discover how internalised stereotypes shape your behaviour - and learn how to disrupt them. You’ll walk away with tools to recognise gendered dynamics and let go of habits that no longer serve you.

💬 Communicate for Connection

Learn how to turn small-talk into meaningful connection, build trust quickly and navigate conflict calmly.

🗣️ Conversational Courage

Say what needs to be said - without compromising your values or reputation. Harness the power of AWE: Authority, Warmth, and Energy to lead courageous conversations.

🌟 Make Your Presence Matter

Unlock new ways to use your voice, body, language and facial expressions to communicate with clarity and conviction — in any professional setting.

3. Online Implementation Session (1.5 hrs)
Tuesday 26th September, 12-1.30pm
Two weeks after the workshop check in, celebrate progress, and stay accountable.
