Thank you for joining me at the For Female Success Festival

Courtesan energy: what we explored

My session was about reclaiming your sensual confidence and carrying it into every part of your life. A few of the threads we pulled on:

  • What courtesan energy really is: presence, self-possession and pleasure, not performance.
  • Why desire and pleasure are a source of confidence, not something to apologise for.
  • Simple practices to feel more alive, magnetic and at ease in your own skin.
  • How coming home to yourself is the start of deeper connection with everyone else.

With deep respect and admiration for the other incredible speakers

  • Sarah Gashi, Clever Duck Insurance: Challenging the silent inequality, women, risk and the protection gap
  • Lydia and Paula Finch, LEF & Co: What happens if life puts you on pause? Lasting power of attorney
  • Lisa Wood, Lisa Loves Style: How style helps build confidence in your business
  • Hasina Reshamwalla, Veda Women's Club: Rebuild yourself, without losing yourself
  • Enekole Gertrude Aboje, STEM Ladies Summit: You don't need a perfect career path to make an impact
  • Tamsin Liddle, Pyrrha Professional: Less noise, more progress
