09 September Xtraordinary Women: Coastal Networking Event



TOPIC: Exploring your potential: You already are what you long for!
We lead crazy lives. Relationships, family, our businesses, finances, health challenges, all keep us awake at night and constantly test our strength and our view of ourselves and the world. Our lives are filled with experiences we don’t want to have, and things we would want more of, every single day. One very simple, easily accessible way to make sense of it all is the Zen Coaching way:

04 September - Xtraordinary Women: Somerset West Networking Event



TOPIC: Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway
It is not about working harder – it is about removing the obstacles
The talk will explore the world we work and live and how to ensure that our purpose does not become busyness. The truths about fear will be revealed and you will be challenged to think about the assumptions you hold regarding your true potential. Participants will be left with 3 practical ways of how to ‘hold’ their fears from a place of self-power.

19 August Xtraordinary Women: Southern Suburbs Networking Event



THIS IS A MIXED NETWORK. BOTH BUSINESSWOMEN AND MEN ARE WELCOME.
Topic: Be a Fighter!
Challenges, do they fuel you or create a sense of fear? Does every inch of
you pump with adrenalin whenever you encounter a new challenge? Probably not, and that's ok. If a challenge doesn't create an initial sense of excitement and anxiety, then you might want to ask yourself "is this what I really want?" or perhaps "is this what I'm passionate about?"
Lianes’ story started when she was challenged by a girl in high school. She could have asked her mother to change schools or she could have run away, but she didn’t . Instead, she chose to stand her ground and fight back. The minute you decide to take a stand for what you believe in, that's your first step to success!
There are constant challenges in our personal and professional lives, and
even as progressive as the business world may seem, there are still many
challenges for women in business. Must we be harder on our employees? Should we be overly stern in meetings? Do we really have to do and be all these things to prove that we can "run with the men"? No, we don't.
We don't have to act like a man. We have to be a fighter.

07 August - Xtraordinary Women: Somerset West Networking Event


TOPIC: The Power of You – Why The World Needs You to be You
Being unique is not something the world usually celebrates. In an age of conformity, copy cats and conformity our uniqueness is seldom seen as a strength. I believe that we are born to create and it is the expression of our individual creativity that we find our ultimate happiness. Happiness is good and is the key to unlocking our creativity and greatest contribution. The real challenge lies in how best to find this in a world that appears to be working against us. This presentation explores why being unique is a good thing and why the world needs individuals who understand who they are and understand what it is they wish to contribute. It looks at this challenge form three aspects:
