Los Angeles, CA
Join us for yet another intimate evening for prominent Female and Non-Binary Entrepreneurs in Los Angeles, CA. Hosted outdoors at our Founder’s new home in Encino, seating is limited and tickets WILL sell out. We are so excited that our guest this year is Samara Bay, author of Permission to Speak: How to Change What Power Sounds Like, Starting with You!
THE BOOK
Getting heard is a tricky business: It’s what you say and how you show up, filtered through your audience’s assumptions and biases—and maybe even your own. For women, people of color, immigrants, and queer folks, there’s often a dissonance between how you speak and how we collectively think powerful people should speak: like the wealthy white men who’ve historically been in charge. But, fortunately, the sound of power is changing.
Permission to Speak is your tool kit for making that change. In this revolutionary take on how to use your voice to get what you want, sought-after speech coach Samara Bay offers a fresh perspective on public speaking and a new definition of what power sounds like: namely, you.
Blending anecdotes with eye-opening research in leadership, linguistics, and social science, Permission to Speak shows you how to strike the right balance of strength and warmth to land your message, and so much more.
And this just scratches the surface on what this book has to offer each and every one of you. We’ve got the venue, the drinks, the networking, the intimate evening with other incredible, like-minded people, great conversation, and a copy of your new favorite book. So, all you have to do is show up.
