About us
For professionals who are brilliant at what they do, but freeze up the moment they have to say it out loud.
This is a space for anyone who's ever known exactly what they wanted to say and still let the moment pass. Whether it's speaking up in meetings, presenting to a room, pitching your work, or simply being heard in conversations that matter, we're here to practice, together, in real time.
I'm Kara De Kretser, a UN professional turned confidence coach, and I host small, intimate gatherings that blend real conversation with hands-on confidence practice. No big stages, no forced small talk, just a genuine space to build the presence you already deserve to have.
Expect: honest conversation, interactive and fun activities, practical tools you can use immediately, and a group small enough that you'll actually be heard.
This group is open to everyone, all professions, all backgrounds, anyone ready to stop shrinking and start showing up.

Off the Vision Board, On to the Plan: FREE MASTERCLASS
·OnlineOnlineHej everyone! 👋
I hope you're all doing well! Huge thanks to those of you who came along to my Speaking and Presentnig with Confidence event a couple of weeks back. So great to see you there!
I have something I'd love to invite you all to on 21 October - a FREE Online Masterclass. Something a bit different where we will work together to take something from your vision board - a goal you would love to see come to life - and we will actually plan it together and tackle some of the mindset challenges that normally stop people from achieving their goals.
I know this from my own life... Most of us don't want to speak with more confidence just for the sake of it. There's usually something BIGGER behind it. A promotion you want to go for. An idea you want to pitch. A business you'd love to start. A career change you keep thinking about.
And so often that bigger goal stays on the "one day" list (aka the Vision Board). Not because you're not capable, but because nobody ever showed you how to turn it into a real plan. Plus that same little voice that makes you nervous before a presentation ("Who am I to say this?") is usually the one keeping the bigger dream on hold too.So I'm running a FREE online masterclass: Off the Vision Board, On to the Plan (register here so you get the link and the replay afterwards)
I spent over 12 years managing projects at the UN, and that's exactly how big goals get done.
In one hour together, I'll show you how to use the same thinking for YOUR goal, plus the confidence tools I use with my 1:1 clients.
You'll leave with:
✨ A clear picture of why your goal has been stuck
✨ ONE goal mapped out like a real project, with your very first step
✨ The mindset barrier most likely to stop you, so you can move right through itIt's relaxed and hands-on, not a lecture. Just bring a pen and one goal you're ready to move on. Grab a coffee and a kanelbulle and join me! ☕
📅 Wednesday 21 October
🕚 11:00 to 12:00 Swedish time
💻 Live on Zoom (link sent when you register)
💰 FREE, and everyone who registers gets the replayI'd LOVE to see some familiar faces there. And if you know someone with a big goal they keep putting off, bring them along!
See you soon,
Kara 💛3 attendees
