The Dare To Lead workshop was everything I needed right now. These topics are crucial – there is nothing more important. Kylie is such a brave leader herself – showing that not only was she sharing information she has learned, but fully living and breathing these concepts, and led the group with understanding and compassion. We all need to learn to be braver! Thank you Kylie, for such a life-changing experience, I’m ready to step into the arena (even if I get it wrong sometimes). Thank you!

To be completely honest, I felt uncomfortable and challenged at the start of this workshop but I was so glad to have gone through this journey. What a wonderful transformative experience! Thank you Kylie for your beautiful, encouraging demeanour and excellent presentation. This learning has helped me tremendously.

The lessons keep resonating around my head – only this morning I circled back about something that happened last week. I explained the story in I had made up. I felt not only confident to have the conversation but excited about having the right words to use to explain the position without emotion hijacking the conversation. I got the issue sorted but more importantly I got the relationship back on track. These are hugely important lessons learned at the Dare To Lead workshop.
