About our Guest Speakers

Ever noticed how your brain hits the panic button when an exciting opportunity lands in your lap? We've all been there. Join Powrsuit co-founders Kristen and Nat to discover why saying 'yes' feels so tricky - and why you need to do it anyway. Drawing from decades of personal experience, they’ll share entertaining examples and practical strategies to overcome limiting mindsets and back yourself to ‘learn by doing’. If you’ve ever felt a flutter of self-doubt, this is for you.

Kristen Lunman and Natalie Ferguson are the co-founders and directors of Powrsuit - a career accelerator for women at every stage (with a space for allies, too). Combining bite-sized learning and micro-networking, Powrsuit takes professional development out of to-do lists and into weekly routines. With over 700 members across NZ, Australia, North America and Europe (and a handful in Singapore!), Powrsuit's research-backed approach delivers a tangible return on investment. After six months, 82% of members increase self-leadership skills and 28% take a tangible step forward in their careers.
