This half-day, in-person experience is designed for women who participated in the 40 Over 40 Portrait Project (and the friends they choose to bring along) who are ready to speak with more clarity, confidence, and truth in this season of life.
As we age, something powerful happens: we get clearer. We know what matters, what doesn’t, and where we’re done staying quiet to keep the peace. Living Out Loud is a guided, interactive workshop where we explore how to communicate from that place of wisdom, without people-pleasing, blowing things up, or losing ourselves in the process.
Through discussion and practice,, you’ll be guided by three facilitators, Dana Black, Clover Keyes Avery, and Kathy Grinsteiner, as you:
Clarify who you are now and how you want to show up
Articulate your “why” in life, work, or relationships
Prepare for difficult conversations before they’re needed
Practice speaking honestly—with care for yourself and others
Experience the power of being seen and heard in community
This is not a lecture. It’s participatory, intimate, and grounded in real life. You’ll reflect, speak, listen, and connect with other women who are committed to growth and doing so with courage.
Come as you are. Leave more rooted, more confident, and more willing to use your voice.
