About this event

Our upcoming April event promises to be an enriching and productive experience!

We’re excited to have the opportunity to reconnect in person and establish valuable relationships with fellow professionals who share our vision.

This year’s theme is Mindset, Skillset and Toolset, and we’re confident that you’ll walk away with actionable insights that you can apply to both your personal and professional pursuits, including public speaking.

 

We start with our members section, where our presenter will be our very own Barbara Moynihan. She will be delivering a session on Sharpening Your Saw: Top Tips From 20 Years Of Presentations Coaching.

 

Following on from Barbara’s presentation, we will have two showcases:

John Burn – Discovering My Purpose Through Adversity
Stephen Downey – Steps to Mindful Living

 

We finish the morning with our Keynote speaker for this event – Madeleine Black

The title of her talk is: Unbroken – Speaking the Unspeakable

“I remember wishing they would kill me to make it all end.”
It takes courage to speak the unspeakable.
But for many years, Madeleine Black felt too afraid and too ashamed to utter a word of what happened to her.
Violently attacked at the age of thirteen, her story is one of pain – but also of healing, resilience and forgiveness.
Madeleine uses her personal and moving story to shatter the shame, stigma and silence surrounding sexual violence
And to show us that it’s not the events in our life that define us, but by how we choose to reclaim our lives after them.
How we become unbroken.
Through her words, Madeleine hopes to help others find the courage to speak up, whatever their story in order to live their life fully.

 

This will be a powerful event, so book your tickets now – we look forward to seeing you there!
