A virtual weekend experience w/ Africa Brooke (NEW!)
Over 2 days in August 2023, a group of self-aware adults will gather virtually for 2.5hrs each day. 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.
Self-leadership will be at the core of the work we’ll do together, so whether you're leading teams or simply leading your own life, you’ll learn that mastering the art of brave expression and clear communication is crucial. This weekend is a golden opportunity if you’ve been itching to get my close support on the topic of self-censorship.
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.
Contrary to popular belief, courage is not just a natural-born trait. It's a skill that can be honed through honest self-reflection, clear intention-setting, repeated action, calculated risk-taking, and a willingness to lean into discomfort. In my years of coaching and mentoring individuals and teams, I have seen this truth firsthand.
I am committed to helping you become an unbound version of yourself, all while preserving your integrity, grace, compassion, and ability to connect. I am here to help you identify and overcome your own blind spots, holding you accountable to your deeply-held values.
This commitment means equipping you with both tangible and intangible tools to navigate your path forward, supporting you in owning your thoughts and effectively voicing your opinions, even if they stand against the majority. I am here to stand beside you, a confidant and cheerleader, as you define or realign your personal or professional vision.
We will explore:
*Visibility fears & aspirations: We'll identify your specific fears around being truly seen and heard, and set clear goals for overcoming them.
*Expanding your capacity to take risks: We'll look at practical ways to step outside of the false safety and take calculated risks.
*Using your censor-free voice tactfully: You’ll learn how to voice your opinion, even controversial ones, in a respectful and effective way.
*The art of crucial conversations: We'll go over strategies for managing difficult conversations, including conflict resolution and rebuilding relationships after disagreements.
*Making your re-introduction: Remember when I said that you’d be putting everything we do together into practice? That time has come.
Day 1 - 2.5hrs - Saturday 12th August:
Note: you’ll still have access to the replay if you can’t make it LIVE
Phase 1: The Foundation - we’ll kick off our weekender with an interactive discussion on core values (what do you ACTUALLY stand for? I should let you know now, I don’t want your PR answer), audacious aspirations, and address the initial fears you might have. This foundational work will be a critical stepping stone for the coming phases.
Phase 2: Self-Concept & Visibility - in this phase we’ll dive deeper into self-concept (your self-concept is how you see and understand yourself. It includes your beliefs, qualities, and identity, shaping your overall perception of who you are as an individual) and visibility. We'll revisit your 'public-facing' values to make sure your public image reflects your private reality. We will then dissect the current image you have of yourself and reconstruct it from the ground up.
Phase 3: Reputation & Full-Spectrum Thinking - here we will combine reputation management and critical thinking into one enriching exploration. We’ll discuss how to shape reputation, take intentional risks, and exercise full-spectrum thinking so you can strengthen your ability make informed decisions.
Day 2 - 2.5hrs - Sunday 13th August:
Note: you’ll still have access to the replay if you can’t make it LIVE
Phase 4: Crucial Conversations & Censor-Free Voice - in this phase we’ll blend the techniques of handling difficult conversations with the development of a confident, censor-free voice. The goal here is to equip you with the skills to navigate through conflicts while expressing your viewpoints confidently.
Phase 5: Mastering Your Re-Introduction: As our time together comes to a close, you will craft and present your personal re-introduction, showcasing your growth, newfound clarity, and the direction of your evolving personal and professional journey. Finally, we'll create a clear roadmap for your future, one that aligns with your new self-concept and honed skills, propelling you into a future of courage and conviction.
Closing Q&A
This is where I have to be direct about this group gathering not being suitable for those who expect to acquire more information without taking imperfect action. This is NOT another program for you to spend your hard earned money on, only for it to gather dust in the archives of your mind.
You will be stretched, through action. You will be invited and required to bare yourself, to yourself. And I probably don’t need to tell you this but if you are easily offended or find it difficult to hold multiple truths about other people and the world around you - this one might not be for you.
This will be a space for respectful, compassionate, and truly open minded individuals who are able to work well with others and want to build camaraderie in a welcoming and brave environment. There’s not going to be anything else like it!
