“The Confidence BluePrint: Owning your voice in rooms that weren't built for you”
‍
This panel is all about stepping into your power  even when the room feels intimidating, exclusive, or simply not designed with women in mind. Our speakers will unpack the art of confident communication: advocating for your ideas, navigating tough conversations, and trusting your intuition as a leader. We’ll explore how women can show up authentically, push past imposter syndrome, and shift the energy in any room by owning their voice.
