Messages about women's empowerment fill every fashion magazine, romantic comedy, fitness centre, and beauty product ad. Everyone seems to have co-opted the idea of women's empowerment and independence to sell their products and stories. But while we see these messages everywhere, have we all really become more empowered people? Does "girl power" translate into real-life changes? Is a social trend the same thing as deep, individual strength?

Rather than buy into the latest quick fix, we each need to remember that we are the designers of our own lives. We can choose to create a reality of stress and drama, or a life full of fun, creativity, love and joy.

We've all got fears, even the most confident among us... it's useless to pretend otherwise. The key is to feel your fear but go for your goals in spite of it.

Through a variety of group exercises and individual challenges, FearlessFlame empowerment workshops help women to build their confidence and learn to shine with their own strength. Amongst other things, we'll cover:

• Acceptance
• Setting intentions
• Facing change
• Attracting the right people
• The power of affirmation
• Breaking old belief patterns

FearlessFlame workshops are designed to guide you past the fears that have been holding you back, and to help you face your obstacles head-on. Most importantly, you'll learn how to have faith in yourself!
