The Power of Her Summit Soft Launch: Proof That You Should Go For It (Even When It’s Messy)

The soft launch of the Power of Her Summit was nothing short of powerful — not because it was perfect, but because it was real.

Did things go exactly according to plan? No.

Did we have to pivot and take things virtual? Yes.

Did we show up anyway? Absolutely.

This is your sign to go for it even when the plan changes… even when it feels inconvenient… even when it would be easier to wait. We made the choice to move forward, to adapt, and to create something meaningful with what we had and you showed up in the most beautiful way.

Creating this summit took strategy, patience, flexibility, and faith. It wasn’t easy, but it was worth it.

To kick things off, we released podcast-style sessions that you could enjoy on your own time before our live calls. You listened. You reflected. You sent in questions. And then you showed up LIVE with energy and intention. That connection? That engagement? That’s what makes this community so special.

Thank you for being part of the conversation and showing up as YOU!

We heard from incredible women who didn’t come to perform… they came to tell the truth. Stories of fear, resilience, boldness, and growth filled the room — and reminded us why we do what we do.

At Captivatingly Empowered, our motto is Come As You Are and we mean it.

No filters.

No masks.

No pretending.

Just real women, sharing real stories, showing up exactly as they are. Vulnerability isn’t always easy, but it’s powerful. That’s where real confidence is built.

Each of our speakers came from different seasons of life and different career paths, but they were united by one thing: a belief that their story could help someone else feel seen, encouraged, and brave.

Meet the women who poured into this summit:

If you missed the summit — don’t worry. Most sessions are available on YouTube for free. (We had some technical difficulties with some of the sessions)

This wasn’t just a summit — it was a promise:

To keep showing up.

To stay honest.

To grow boldly.

Together.

XOXO,
