Research tells us that the way to get people to change is not to start with trying to change their attitudes alone, but to start with the behaviors associated with the attitudes. When people see themselves behaving differently, they can then think of themselves differently and the attitude change will follow.

The attitude Emily will help change is that of confidence. You will leave this talk with the tools necessary to become a more confident person.

Emily’s TEDx talk viewed by millions has been updated and elaborated with personal stories and stories of the hundreds of interviews she’s conducted on her podcast, Leadership is Female, with women in business.

We all have the opportunity to grow and change. This talk that will make an increase confidence in leaders today.

Being intentional means creating habits to help you to be successful in reaching your goals coupled with the acknowledgement that you’ve got it all. Yep, you’ve got it all!

The problem is most of us abandon our intentions and allow our minds to wander, ruminate on the negative, the “what if,” the “I can’t,” and focus on lack.

In this presentation, Emily speaks to leaders looking to sharpen their focus, acknowledge their advantages, and be more intentional with their day. You’ll demand this discipline of yourself and your teams.

Relatable insights include how to organzine an effective day, how to set goals in your work and personal life that make you feel fulfilled and energized, how to create boundaries that serve you, and how to increase your confidence.

Be intentional about your life and achieve your biggest dreams.
