Speaking out!
Tuesday 23rd March @ 7.30 pm till 8.45 pm (UK Time) via Zoom
Women get interrupted a lot, or people talk over them especially in the workplace where many women end up not speaking out or using their voice enough. Time to change that, in the words of American diplomat, Madeleine Albright "It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent." We will end with a visualising meditation on being confident to use our voice. Guest teacher tbc.
