Programs and workshops
When you attend a Hacks for Her workshop, expect to have your mind, hands, body and heart fully engaged and stimulated.
Whether itâs an hour-long Lunch and Learn or a multi-day program, each workshop is carefully crafted learning experience that provides opportunities for participants to explore, reflect, play, practice, and (sometimes most importantly) to forge connections with one another.
While I always aim for a workshop experience to exceed expectations, itâs my relentless focus on implementation skills that many clients value most highly. Drawing on the fields of behaviour design, neuroscience and psychology, I equip participants with the skills and confidence to make meaningful changes to how they operate at work and at home.
In addition to workshops based on
the keynote topics, three additional

Why "follow your
passion" is terrible career
advice, and what to do
instead
If you're like most professionals, planning
your own career rarely makes it to the top of your priority list. When you do get
around to contemplating your next steps, it's either difficult to identify what you
*really* want, or the path to achieving your aspirations seems frustratingly hazy.
This highly interactive session offers an opportunity to begin to collect data, explore your options and take action so
you can develop a Road Map for the next
phase of your life and career.
We'll explore:
⢠Why conventional career advice, including âfollow your passionâ is often impractical - and what you need to focus on instead.
⢠How to build your own Career Support Crew, even if you currently have no clue where youâre heading.
⢠Three simple actions you can take immediately to help you move forward in your current role with greater clarity and courage.
Write your own career
story
Our beliefs and mindset about careers - about the role of work in our lives, about our own potential, about the purpose of working - begin to form when we're very small. Sometimes, we're still basing our professional journey on advice or feedback we received decades ago.Â
Understanding our current Career Stories is the first step to writing our own.
Â
Participants will leave this workshop
with:
⢠an understanding of the helpful â and not-so-helpful - messages and beliefs that have driven their career choices and decisions.
⢠the ability to dial down unhelpful stories and begin to construct a more empowering narrative for where theyâve been and where theyâre going.
⢠increased clarity about what they want out of their life and career, and the actions they need to take to become the author of their own career story.
How to make friends with
your inner critic and build career courage, clarity
and confidence
For many of us, the Inner Critic â that pesky little voice in your head that tells you youâre not smart enough, or youâre too demanding, or youâll make a fool of yourself â is a near constant companion. Allowing it to dictate our actions can lead to playing small, forgoing opportunities and staying stuck.
In this highly interactive workshop, you'll learn :
⢠how to use your voice and body language to dial down self-doubt.
⢠three techniques to replace your inner critic with an inner coach.
⢠practical strategies for boosting your courage in both formal and informal
workplace settings.
