Join Colleen Kavanagh, a Thought Leader in Positive Communication for 2 transformational hours of reframing how you ask, answer, and connect. These sessions will be conducted via live zoom sessions that fit in to your schedule.

In the session, you will:

Confidently own your communication skillset – no tech or AI tools required.

Learn a powerful technique for handling any request that comes your way with ease. Harness the language of “can do” to increase your influence and impact.

Strengthen customer and client connections.

Overcome the stress of difficult conversations — and handle them with confidence.

Leave with renewed confidence : 

Owning your voice - no scripts, gadgets, or jargon needed.

Speaking in ‘can do’ currency - and watch doors open.

With a battle-tested toolkit for conversations that used to leave you drained.

Colleen will share with you the proven strategies that have achieved a 60% increase in confidence at a recent conference measured across 150 participants.

An extremely practical session, packed with everyday examples where you will learn what to say and what NOT to say.

Clear, easy to understand ways to get to ‘no’ and avoid the unnecessary and unhelpful apology that erodes influence and self esteem.

How we can manage our energy, boundaries and wellbeing and not acquiesce to deadlines, projects and tasks that burden us and overwhelm us.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own examples for Colleen to reframe for them.

This isn’t another lecture or wellness chat where you leave with good intentions but little change. The Unapologetically Regulated Masterclass is a practical, interactive experience designed to give you tools you can use immediately.

Join Dr. Maria Zuschmann for an intimate 2-hour masterclass designed exclusively for Collabor8Women seeking nervous system mastery, emotional clarity, and practical tools to thrive.

In this masterclass, you can expect:

Awareness & Insight
We’ll start by exploring how your body communicates through interoception — the often-overlooked ability to sense your internal state. You’ll begin to recognise the early cues your body gives before stress, overwhelm or burnout set in.

Nervous System Decoded
I’ll walk you through how your nervous system works in real life — not just in complex science terms, but in ways that make sense for busy women who are juggling it all. Gain a better understanding as to why you react the way you do, and what’s actually within your control.

Practical, Fast-to-Use Techniques
This isn’t theory alone. Together, we’ll practice a handful of simple regulation strategies that can take less than a minute to do, yet create powerful shifts in your state. These are techniques you’ll be able to use in the middle of a meeting, during a tough conversation, or when life feels “too much.”

Integration & Connection
You’ll have time to reflect, ask questions, and connect with other incredible women in the room. And because nervous system health isn’t just about stress reduction, but also about nourishment and joy, your ticket includes drinks and nibbles to round out the evening.

By the end of the evening, you’ll leave with:

A deeper understanding of how your body and mind work together.

Tools you can implement immediately (without adding another thing to your to-do list).

The confidence to show up calm, clear, and unapologetically yourself.

The strength of female-led organisations lies in people and culture — their ultimate driver of business success.

Join Natasha Hawker, Managing Director of Employee Matters, for an exclusive in-person 3-hour workshop designed for Collabor8Women.

Participants are strictly limited to 25. This workshop is ideally suited for businesses with 15–100 employees.

Recruitment can cost between 50–150% of a base salary. Learn how to attract and hire the best.
Non-performers cost up to 34% of the salary you’re paying them. Want to fix that?
Culture is the secret sauce — discover how to build high-performance teams.

People & Culture: The Female Leadership Edge is a highly practical session delivering systems and tools you can apply immediately in your team or business to make a real difference.
