Purpose of this masterclass

Let’s start with a clear and simple definition of self-censorship: it is the act of intentionally and voluntarily withholding information from others, and from yourself. This can be for a number of reasons, but it’s usually done out of fear or pressure- and it’s often used as a form of self-protection from actual or perceived emotional, physical, or occupational harm.

In a time where binary thinking, tribalism, and the desire to constantly prove our ‘goodness’ has rapidly taken over our modern lives and caused further division, confusion, frustration, and resentment - the urge to self-censor has never been stronger.

But are we truly free if we’re constantly afraid of exploring and expressing our own thoughts and ideas? Are we truly free if we are afraid to stand in our values?

If you’re already familiar with me and my work, you’ll know that I see it as my personal responsibility to bring you tools and methods to assist you in understanding how self-censorship might be presenting itself in your life, so you can be pro-active in doing something about it. Because here’s the thing, you CAN do something about it! You do not have to be a passive participant.

This will be a gathering for self-aware individuals who are willing to step into the arena and begin (or continue) the deeply rewarding process of honouring the discomfort of shifting ingrained patterns and creating a realistic roadmap to move forward courageously.

I’ve made it possible for you to purchase multiple tickets at checkout as this masterclass would be great experienced with friends, family, a partner, your students, or with your colleagues. It’s time to have more solution focused conversations, and this is a fantastic place to start!

If you came to the LIVE training I held last year, you’re in for an absolute treat because this will be an entirely new session - with key elements expanded on and laid as the foundation for your roadmap. We are taking this many steps further.

This masterclass is for you if you:

• On some level believe that speaking your mind will result in loss of friends, family, job, income, followers, audience, clients, opportunities - or all of the above.

• Are interested in identifying your own blind spots (especially if acquiring this knowledge can help you support yourself and others better).

• Often find yourself getting defensive when you are challenged, are unsure of how to navigate pushback, or struggle to communicate with reactionary people.

• Are afraid of the judgment you’ll receive if you voice your opinions.

• Would like to be able to handle disagreement better, especially with the people closest to you (family is often an area of struggle for many people).

• Are grappling with the fear of being judged, misunderstood, cancelled,  ostracised, and labelled negatively.

• Want to get better at articulating and expressing yourself clearly, rationally, calmly, and confidently.

• Are committed to becoming an independent thinker and an intentional communicator.

• Are keen on practicing intellectual humility (accepting your limitations and ignorance in certain areas, being intellectually courageous, and staying open-minded to multiple possibilities).

• Are simply curious and open to expanding your knowledge and potentially learning something new.

What you can expect:

• The 1st half of the masterclass will be on all things mindset (the WHY), 2nd half will be a focus on strategy (the HOW).

• The masterclass will be organised in 3 parts - Awareness, Responsibility, and Expression.

• Throughout the session, you’ll be provided with evidence based exercises and tools you can easily integrate into your daily life.

By the end of this masterclass, you will have:

• Gained clarity and language to better understand what your current relationship with self-censorship is - and you’ll create a robust roadmap for the systems you’ll put in place to change it.

• Clearly outlined your core values and what you stand for (I will be holding you accountable to these beyond the session).

• An understanding of how to use your social filter vs self-censoring as the default.

• Learned the art of effective communication, even when your nervous system is unsettled (you’ll do this by identifying your communication style, and learning of others you can add to your toolkit).

• Practical tools for handling pushback, potential conflict, and disagreement.

• Practical methods and resources for cultivating emotional resilience, which is an essential part of this process.

Your purchase includes:

• Lifetime access to recording of the masterclass (downloadable MP3 & MP4)

I’m looking forward to supporting you in the best way I can!
