Why I Created April 11th

Today is the last day of International Women's Month.

 

And while the world celebrates women one month a year, I want you to know something.

 

I celebrate women every single day. It is not a month for me. It is a mission.

 

Which is why I want to share something with you today that I don't share often.

 

I have spent decades helping other women find their voices.

 

And for a long time I wasn't sure I trusted my own.

 

I knew the research. I knew the patterns. I had sat with hundreds of women and helped them reconnect with themselves.

 

And yet.

 

I sat in leadership meetings and spoke up. Only to be met with silence. Then watched a male colleague say essentially the same thing and be told what a great job he did.

 

I was in a marriage to someone who preferred me small and insecure. And was very good at keeping me there.

 

I raised my child largely on my own. Showing up fully for everyone around me while quietly running on empty.

 

I wasn't broken. I was a woman navigating a world that had been giving me the same message my whole life:

 

Make yourself smaller. Doubt yourself more. Trust yourself less.

 

I created April 11th because I know what it feels like to be on both sides of this.

 

To be the woman who helps others find their way back to themselves.

 

And to be the woman still finding her own way back.

 

Rebuilding Self-Trust: Learning to Trust Your Own Voice Again is not a lecture. It is not a list of tips.

 

It is an honest, grounded conversation about why this happens to us. And how we begin to come home to ourselves again.

 

April 11th. One hour on Zoom. $35. Includes the recording and a workbook.

 

Save your spot here.

 

I hope to see you there.
