There will be so many ‘Highlights’ at my FINAL 3-day Event. I know just how much comes forward when you give yourself the gift of some time to reflect, consider and focus.

How often do you press ‘Pause’ on the rush, rush, rush of every day and put your ToDo lists to one side.

When did you last give yourself time to consider, plan, learn, grow, interact AND think about how YOU want to be? Focus on You. Not everyone else for a change.

There will be a few ‘Oh my goodness!’ moments which you’ll experience either yourself or vicariously – with other women, like you, who come up against themselves. Or you suddenly let down your drawbridge, open up and realise just how much you’ve held yourself back.

We may shake you up a little. Just like a Snow Globe. You shake it and the snow lands differently, never in the same place again. And that’s a good thing. Why would you want things to be just the same? You don’t. You’re ready to shake things up for yourself aren’t you?

“You don’t get this sort of thing on offer anywhere.”

“You don’t get this sort of thing on offer anywhere in the Corporate world. You can go on lots of soft skills courses but there’s nothing like this out there at all. It was lovely to meet like-minded women. I’ve made lots of decisions so one is about letting go to help myself move forward more, there’s nothing wrong with being scared and having that fear but how to overcome it and that will be my next journey.

Kay has been excellent; she has been really a true host, never looks tired and so full of energy and keeps you engaged throughout. I will tell the truth, there is not one moment where I looked at my watch these last three days!

I would say bite the bullet and just attend Kay’s Event, you have absolutely nothing to lose and so much to gain AND you will make a lot more new friends with a great new network as well because I can see that happening all around me.”

“Get my backbone in place and step out.”

“I wanted a bit of Kay, something of what she was giving out, a bit of her twinkle dust. Kay has laid on a spread, a banquet for Queens; it’s been really luxurious. Everything has been thought of, like all the little finishing touches and it’s been really nurturing.

What decisions have I made as a result of being here? I’m going to get my backbone in place, stand firmly in my space and step out. Yes, show up, sparkle and be heard! I’d say to other women considering joining an Event like this in the future is – don’t even question it, analyse it – just do it. It is just amazing and you meet such amazing women to learn with and from.”

“It’s really good to take yourself outside of your Comfort Zone.”

“Kay has a way of engaging everybody and it making it feel like a very sort of personal exercise so I’m aware that there are many women in the room but it doesn’t feel like you’re one of many. Kay makes it feel personal.

It feels like you can take a risk and throw caution to the wind and move forward by being open and I think because Kay models openness, it gives us permission to be open as well. One of my biggest Aha moments was when we were doing an exercise on describing what we do.

Kay gave us 3 phrases which meant that for the first time I was able to really say, out aloud, what I do and it goes so far beyond what I’ve ever said before. Everyone sat up and listened as I said it!

It’s about just taking that step forward and feeling more confident in doing so. It’s really good to take yourself outside of your comfort zone and step into something different because boy, do you learn. Fast.”

“I’m going to take back the driving seat in my career.”

“Kay brings together an amazing group of women from all different industries and backgrounds and it now feels like we’re a team, we’re a community and we’ve all helped each other out and she did that for us. Everyone in the room has gelled, even if they’re perhaps naturally a little bit shy, by the end of the first morning people are able to put their hands up and ask questions and you know no idea, no question is a stupid one.

One of things that we’ve talked about over the 3 days is to be clear on where you are on “your bus”, as Kay refers to your career, and I feel as if I’ve actually been in the driving seat in my bus for the past year which is brilliant but I’m getting pushed out; someone else wants that seat. I just want some ideas on how to cope with that and lots of the exercises and lots of the topics we’ve covered these three days have really helped me.

As a result of being at the Event, I’m going to take back the control in my career, get back in the driving seat of my own bus. The Event has really given me the motivation to do that but also given me some really practical tips and techniques that I can start to use straight away.

If you’re thinking about coming to this Event in future years, then you just have to do it. It has been so much better than I ever imagined it would be. I’ve absolutely loved the three days and been raving about it to anyone I’ve spoken to!”
