Speaking in public is not easy for most people, nor is running a workshop, writing a speech, thinking on your feet, or even speaking up amongst friends. At POWERtalk you will learn how to gain the confidence to step up to speak up. We've seen it many times over. We help you with simple techniques to look confident as a speaker even when you feel like crumbling. **You'll be giving presentations before you know it and loving it!!!** **\>\>\>** We believe there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to growing as a person and can tailor a plan to help you grow as an individual. **<<<** **Join us at a meeting soon to learn how to build your confidence as a speaker, effectively communicate, get creative, and have lots of fun doing so.** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- POWERtalk Australia is a not-for-profit organisation training in public speaking and leadership skills.

This International Women's Day Weekend, you’re invited to an afternoon that goes deeper than “I’m fine.” Most women’s lives look full from the outside - there's work, kids, school pick‑ups, caring for everyone else - but underneath there’s often a quiet ache for real conversation and real connection. If that’s you, this gathering is for you. The Next Chapter High‑Tea is a two‑hour, intimate and luxurious high‑tea experience by ticket only ([book here](https://events.humanitix.com/the-next-chapter-high-tea?_gl=1*1bppxdk*_gcl_au*MjU2NDY2MTg3LjE3NzAwODA2Mjk.*_ga*MTQwNTQ3MDc4NC4xNzYyMjk2NDg0*_ga_LHKW5FR9N6*czE3NzA2MDQzMDQkbzI0JGcwJHQxNzcwNjA0MzA0JGo2MCRsMCRoMA..)) at Mámor Chocolates & High Tea Szalón in Collingwood, Melbourne, hosted by Life and Confidence Coach Kara De Kretser. It’s for women who are ready to stop skimming the surface and start talking about what’s actually on their hearts: identity shifts, motherhood and ambition, boundaries, self‑trust, desire, and the next chapter that’s quietly calling. What to expect: * A small group of like‑hearted women (this is intentionally intimate, not a huge crowd) * A short, grounding talk from Kara * Gentle but powerful guided conversation prompts to move beyond small talk * Space to exhale, be honest, and feel truly witnessed * A delicious high‑tea spread, bottomless tea and a glass of sparkling This isn’t a networking event where you swap business cards and rehearse your “I’m so busy” speech. It’s a warm, held space to come home to yourself, in the company of women who are doing the same. You’ll leave with: * A deeper sense of self‑connection (that feeling of “Oh, there I am again”) * Fresh insights from questions you rarely give yourself time to sit with * The beginnings of a new circle of women who see *you*, not just the roles you play * A gentle but real activation of your next chapter: more courage, more self‑trust, and more permission to want what you want If you’ve been craving depth, honesty and nourishment (for your nervous system as much as your body), there is a seat at the table for you. NOTE: This is a **ticketed event** – for full details and to secure your spot, [please book via the event page here](https://events.humanitix.com/the-next-chapter-high-tea?_gl=1*1bppxdk*_gcl_au*MjU2NDY2MTg3LjE3NzAwODA2Mjk.*_ga*MTQwNTQ3MDc4NC4xNzYyMjk2NDg0*_ga_LHKW5FR9N6*czE3NzA2MDQzMDQkbzI0JGcwJHQxNzcwNjA0MzA0JGo2MCRsMCRoMA..). DRESS CODE: Come as you are, however you are comfortable. Because that is what true confidence is all about. Leave feeling less alone, more grounded, and clearer on what’s next.

This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a "louding voice" -- the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni's father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir. When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing. But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow, she finds the resolve to speak, however she can--in a whisper, in song, in broken English--until she is heard
