We’re here not only to strengthen your influence and confidence, but to co-create a better world for women. Some of the answers lie in the work you've been doing the past two weeks. Others lie ahead. We’ve established self-awareness practices and focused on bringing your personal presence to what you do. Next we’ll start focusing on the tough questions and challenges of being a female leader.
Now is great time to reflect on why you joined and what you want the world to look like for women. You and women like you are choosing to commit to 2 more weeks because they can relate to:
- Being judged negatively for being strong and assertive, called bossy.
- Having trouble being heard in meetings, and sometimes feel like work is not a safe place to speak up for themselves.
- Their competence being second-guessed or discredited. They’ve been questioned and ignored so much, that they start to believe they don't have anything to contribute.
- Feeling undervalued because they do things they aren't getting credit for.
- Their body and the way they dress being a topic of conversation related to their value.
- Being patronized, being humble or apologizing too much.
- Wondering if they will ever be able to be their whole self, let alone bring it to work.
- They can never let their guard down. They are always being judged, and always trying to make a good impression. They spend a lot of time, effort and money making sure their colleagues, subordinates and superiors judge them the way they want to be judged.
- They’re tired of being expected to juggle everything in life, failing to be superwoman.
- They’re worn down, defending their abilities and your worth.

Participation is the Price of Admission
The process of cultivating the life and work of my dreams has been immensely rewarding. I am thrilled to share it with you. I believe in a world where women are looked up to as leaders, role models, and mentors. I want this course to bring us one step closer to realizing that world. That is why I offered it for free – so as many people could access it as possible. We have over 130 people signed up, and over 85 in our Facebook community. I LOVE the participation that has been going on - keep it up! Here is what I want you to do:
Participate. Watch the videos. Try the activities. Reflect on the big questions. Share your experiences with other participants. Ask questions. Request help. Celebrate triumphs and breakthroughs. You can do this by engaging in the Facebook community, sending me a private message, and completing anonymous questionnaires. I challenge you to step up your participation the next two weeks.
Offer feedback. Tell me what your favorite parts were or what ideas you have for improving the course. Your feedback is critical to helping me refine what I offer and make my dream a reality. Feedback can be as elaborate as writing a paragraph, or as simple as clicking ‘like’ on a comment. I also invite you to tell me things like, “Hey that activity didn’t resonate for me,” “that’s not something I would share in an online forum,” or “you haven’t addressed this and I want to hear about it.” Your thoughts, feelings and wants are absolutely essential. Gimmie that pussy check!
Share it. If you like or have benefited from what you experienced, please share it, tag it, tweet it, blog about it, and talk about it. Other people seeing and interacting with this course is how it will evolve, and how it will help more women become confident, influential leaders.
