As women in business, we understand the challenges we face in our work environments and within ourselves. The pressure to excel and the battle with self-doubt are struggles I know all too well.

Join me for a webinar: "From Critic to Champion: Transforming Your Inner Voice to Speak Up with Confidence." I'll share strategies to silence self-doubt, cultivate a positive inner dialogue, and navigate real-world challenges. Empower your leadership and connect with a supportive community.

Let's turn doubts into strengths together.

My home for the next 10 hours!
As a coach, it's important to me to get the right support for both me and my business.
Many business owners operate as lone wolves, juggling various roles.
Attending the WOMEN ROCKING BUSINESS training with Sage Lavine, in Santa Cruz, California this week is a time to reflect, recalibrate, learn new skills, and reconnect with amazing women.
I'm excited to pivot towards assisting entrepreneurial women in elevating their businesses through speaking.
Let's do this together!

Last week, on 12/10/23 we had a fantastic humorous speech competition. We heard a reflection on the lack of H&S in the 90's, 2 separate stories about interview blunders and a lesson about the futility of being on a diet while on holiday.

There were 4 speeches in all with a well-deserved winner. In the picture is Keith being presented with the winners' ribbon from Magda.

Lovely to see 2 new faces in the audience.

We are changing the venue for the next meeting to the Stillorgan Talbot Hotel on the N11. This is in order to attend the regional Humourous Speech Competition and support our winner Keith, who will repeat his speech at that meeting. The date and times are 26th October at 8pm.

Please ring/Whatsapp 0831360409 with any questions or alternatively, just turn up on the night. There is a cover charge of between €5 and €10 which we will advise you on closer to the time.

I look forward to seeing you then.
