Join the Creative Women Entrepreneurs community for our next Creative Power Hour, a 60-minute, high-impact virtual workshop designed to help you level up your creative business... fast!

​Curated and hosted by Sam Popp, founder of Creative Women Entrepreneurs, each Creative Power Hour brings in a different expert to tackle one practical challenge freelancers and small business owners are navigating right now.

​This month, we’re joined by Stephanie Thoma, bestselling author of Confident Introvert, for an interactive workshop on how to communicate with greater confidence, earn trust, and create more opportunities without becoming louder, more performative, or less yourself.

​Whether you’re pitching a potential client, leading a meeting, attending a networking event, teaching a workshop, or speaking in front of a group, how you communicate shapes how people experience your expertise.

​Through her Calm Authority framework, Stephanie will teach practical communication habits that help creatives speak clearly, manage their nerves, and become people others trust, remember, and recommend.

​You'll Learn How To:

  • ​Talk about your work and expertise without minimizing yourself, rambling, or over-explaining.
  • ​Build a strong professional presence without adopting a louder or more performative personality.
  • ​Reduce anxiety before client conversations, pitches, networking events, and public speaking.
  • ​Speak up in group settings so your ideas are heard and remembered.
  • ​Build trust and credibility through the way you communicate.

​You'll leave with:

  • ​Tools for managing nerves and expressing your ideas more clearly.
  • ​Strategies you can use in client conversations, pitches, meetings, networking, and speaking opportunities.
  • ​A clearer understanding of how to show up as the person your experience has prepared you to become.

​Our session will be hosted live on Zoom, and the link will be shared with confirmed RSVPs one hour prior to the session.

​Can't make the session live? RSVP anyway and we'll share the replay.

​Who This Is For:
​If you're a woman or femme freelancer, creative, or founder earning income from your creativity or expertise, this session is for you.
​We welcome artists, makers, designers, writers, photographers, filmmakers, product creators, event planners, marketers, educators, musicians, and other creative entrepreneurs.
