About this event

The conversation

9/02/2027 MORE THAN YOU THINK

Unlocking the potential you already have

What if your current role is only the beginning?

We are often far more capable than we give ourselves credit for.

Drawing on Laura’s own journey from sales associate to CEO, this session explores what happens when we stop allowing our current position, experience or circumstances to determine what we believe is possible.

A conversation about self-belief, curiosity, opportunity and taking ownership of your own development.

The takeaway:
Your current position doesn't have to define your potential.


23/02/2027 NEVER LET YOURSELF DOWN

The power of standards, self-respect and personal accountability

Who are you when nobody is watching?

There is a difference between trying to impress other people and becoming someone you respect.

This session explores the standards we set for ourselves — how we show up, how we respond when things are difficult, and why personal accountability matters in environments where excellence is expected.

It is about consistency, resilience and continuing to raise your own standards rather than waiting for somebody else to do it for you.

The takeaway:
Don't let your standards be determined by who is watching.


9/03/2027 THE CONFIDENCE TO BE BRAVER

Confidence doesn't always come before action

What if you didn't wait until you felt ready?

Many people believe confidence needs to come first.

Laura’s experience suggests the opposite: sometimes confidence is created because we take the step.

This session explores self-doubt, imposter feelings, taking risks and the moments when we have to trust ourselves enough to step into something bigger — whether that is a new responsibility, a difficult conversation or the next stage of our career.

The takeaway:
Confidence is built through action, experience and self-trust.
