WomanSpeak Circle
Speaking circle for lifelong skills
The WomanSpeak Circle is where you come to learn and practise long-term skills in the art of public speaking.
My wish is for every woman to join a WomanSpeak Circle so the world could benefit from more compassionate feminine leadership and would be a better place for it.
Get ready: this program will change your life and you’ll never look back.
Graduates of my WomanSpeak Circle have gone on to:
speak on TEDx stages
keynote speaking at leadership conferences
take part in panel discussions
podcasting and coaching for podcasting
founding and facilitating groups
have difficult conversations, where they felt they couldn’t before.
Joining the WomanSpeak Circle
The WomanSpeak Circle meets twice per month – you can choose a purely online membership, or once online and once in person in Brisbane.
Signing up is easy and flexible. Join for the full 16 months upfront, or on a monthly membership for as long as it suits you.
What we do in WomanSpeak Circle
During your time in the circle, you’ll explore all parts of public speaking and practise techniques.
It’s a safe, confidential and nurturing space to be vulnerable. You’ll:
learn about your authentic voice alongside your inner warrior
share stories you might never have shared before
grow in ways you do not expect.
We’ll dive into themes like:
Sharing what you believe in the world
Leaving your legacy
Your diamond insight
Spontaneous speaking
Speaking up on panel discussions (and group meetings)
The art of the toast
Learn how to make the most of techniques like:
hand gestures
eye contact,
using the stage,
leaning into the value of what you have to say and get rid of filler from your speeches.
…and much more
What You Get From the WomanSpeak Circle
Over the 16 months, you’ll:
build a full toolkit of useful techniques as you learn and practise them
hone and build your collection of stories that highlight your key messages
engrain your speaking skills and techniques through your regular practice.
During your time in our Circle, you will experience changes to your nervous system. You will feel differently in your body. Your library of stories and insights will grow. And your ability to connect with and engage audiences will shine.
Anne’s Story
‘I have had the absolute honour of being a member of Chantal’s WomanSpeak Circle in Brisbane. I first joined the group to overcome anxiety attacks when I had to speak in public. While the attacks have not fully left me they are few and far between.
I have learnt some valuable coping mechanisms from Chantal that help me breathe through and be able to continue with a successful speech.
Chantal has a unique and loving way she holds each member in her circle which encourages us all to speak up authentically for what we believe in. During my time, community lockdown went into effect and Chantal invited us to participate online. It was a “let’s see what happens”.
With her guidance and dedication we took our speaking to another level. Circle members are now confident to speak in person to groups and online in front of the cameras – a modern technology that equips many of us in our speaking journey.
Women grow under amazing leadership. They prosper where they feel held and heard. When women are seen they can support and uplift others. These gifts flow naturally from Chantal and a gift that we as her Circle members have received and are naturally passing on to others.
I loved my time spent completing the program and look forward to future meet ups and graduations where I will be able to come back and celebrate other women.’
