A 2-Day (self-paced) Course w/ Africa Brooke
For 2.5hrs on each day, you will be guided by yours truly in a private, confidential & uncensored space.
If you deeply value courage over conformity, free expression, and diversity of thought; this experience will be a sanctuary for you to activate your fresh thinking, cultivate self-leadership, and hone your courageous voice clearly, rationally, and confidently.
Then you will put it into practice.
We live in a world where nuances seem to be disappearing; causing frustration, resentment, and fatigue. More than ever, we need individuals ready to challenge this limiting culture, pave the way for open conversations and fresh ideas, and embrace authentic expression as a responsibility rather than a burden. I am here to support such trailblazers.
This two-day course is a masterclass in communication. It's a comprehensive, engaging, practical, and completely UNCENSORED exploration of what it will take for you to liberate your mind and your voice - personally and professionally.
It’s not an introduction self-censorship. It's not about the basics of self-silencing and the many costs that come with it. Here, we explored those elements, but we went much deeper. If you’ve attended any of my previous gatherings, this won't be a repetition of what we have done before.
This requires a different level of commitment and presence.
This commitment involves equipping you with both tangible and intangible tools to move forward so you can own thoughts and effectively voicing your opinions, even if they stand against the majority.
Day 1: Your Internal World
Values – The Foundation: Here, our time together begins. I’ll help you dive profoundly into your core values (what do you stand for?). You'll get honest about the ones you genuinely embody versus the ones you think you should. We’ll unveil those sneaky ‘PR’ values, shedding light on the principles you might publicize but not practice.
Self-concept: This is the cornerstone of self-awareness. Are you who you think you are, or are you molding yourself to meet external expectations? Let’s dissect your self-image, rebuild it, and ensure that your public portrayal matches your private convictions. You will run an external image assessment which includes; reviewing your digital footprint (social media, LinkedIn, professional bios) and seek feedback from people in your life about the truth of how they experience you.
Visibility: Hiding is a game we’ve all played, but what if you chose to lead transparently? Hiding in plain sight is something our culture of fear and self-silencing encourages, but we won't be doing any longer. This is about confronting and dispelling the fears around public scrutiny and understanding the power of showing up, even in the face of fear. Through a series of thought experiments you will outline your visibility aspirations and uncover what is standing in the way of you aligning with them.
Reputation: Behind closed doors, what’s the whisper about you? What do you whisper to yourself, about you? We’ll delve into the realm of reputation management, considering what you’re willing to risk for integrity. Navigate the tightrope of public perception while staying grounded in authenticity. We will also explore the most important aspect of all; self-reputation.
Day 2: The External World
Critical Thinking: this is not simply an intellectual exercise; it’s an essential skill. It allows you to challenge the status quo, seek truth, and contribute thoughtfully to societal discussion. It stands as a protection against self-censorship and encourages a braver and more honest form of communication. We'll enhance your ability to critically evaluate situations and cultivate intellectual flexibility.
Crucial Conversations: The conversations you dodge? They’re defining your boundaries. We’ll identify the current gap between your communication and listening styles, then I'll give you the practical tools you'll need to navigate tough conversations with grace and firmness.
Censor-Free Voice: Your voice is the compass you hold. We'll dive into the depth of your vocal power so you can learn to articulate divergent views with confidence and respect, without letting the fear of backlash seduce you into watering down your message or crossing your own boundaries. And you will do this tactfully!
Re-Introduction: After our time together, the pressing question emerges: Who are you now? Who are you becoming? I'll walk alongside you as you reflect, reimagine, and reintroduce yourself to yourself, to those around you, and to the world at large.
Don’t just take my word for it…
Here’s what a few attendees had to share:
"WOW. I didn’t realise how much I’ve been censoring myself and my overall expression, even though I consider myself to be an outspoken and confident person. This weekender highlighted things I hadn’t even considered about how I view myself, and how I communicate. I experienced moments of serious discomfort because I had to face my blind spots, but I’ve never felt more liberated and ready to take actual action instead of staying stuck in the hamster wheel of avoidance, and hiding behind surface level self-help.’ - B
“Are you kidding me!? This is hands down, no exaggeration, the best financial investment I’ve made in a VERY long time. I didn’t expect to collect this much GOLD.” - A
For me, the biggest aha (there were many!) was that my public self-image projects “casual, understated over achiever”… so much so it actually looks like I don’t put any hard work in, it just happens easily. This couldn’t be further from the truth. I realised that despite visibility equating to shame for me, I’m more scared of being misunderstood or misjudged than being visible" - F
"It showed me how much I am already speaking my truth in relationships and how I can see them blossoming due to this courage. The next step feels like stepping into visibility professionally, too. Which is scary but also feels right." - V
"This course was incredibly valuable, beyond what I even expected. I was looking for an accessible way to closely work with you, and this hit all of the spots! I feel stretched in ways I don’t have enough words for."- P
“Brilliant, intimate, and soul-provoking” - R
