What Do I Say? Conversations Made Simple for Shy and Introverted Women
This is an interactive, introvert-friendly workshop designed to help shy women approach conversations with strangers with more ease, authenticity, and self-trust.
Want a built-in buddy? Pay in advance by April 19 and we’ll match you with someone else attending so you can connect beforehand and meet a friendly face at the workshop.
Coming solo? You’re more than welcome - this is totally optional, and everyone at the workshop is friendly.

✨Welcome Back!
I'm excited to welcome you back to the Charismagic Lab's Spring Season - our third-ever! The stories of how this group has supported you through divorce, changed your view on "awkward" silences, and unlocked curiosity where there was an impenetrable wall were inspiring. I have gratitude for all who brought their whole selves last year.
This season I'm excited to bring on guest coaches, all ICF-Certified & hand-selected by me, to join me in delivering workshops on more areas of social intelligence & charisma. Excited for you to meet them!

Let's be (social media) friends!
📸 I sometimes take photos and short videos to capture the vibe of these gatherings for social media posts promoting the events. I never post audio of attendees. If you'd rather not be in close-up shots, just let me know—I'm happy to honour that. While I do my best to be mindful, it might not be possible to exclude folks from wide group photos. Thanks so much for your understanding and presence. 💛
