What does it really mean to ask someone if they’re okay and be ready for the answer?Join us for an evening of powerful storytelling, honest conversation, and meaningful connection as we explore what sits Below the Surface
This woman only event has been intentionally created as a safe space, recognising the sensitivity of the conversations we will be holding.
We are honored to hear from Carly Shorter and Jennie Halliday.
Carly brings a deeply human approach to communication shaped not by theory, but by real life experience. From leading teams through uncertainty to navigating difficult conversations and learning through mistakes, she shares what it truly takes to communicate with awareness, courage, and choice, especially under pressure. Her sessions are known for being warm, real, and engaging, creating space for honest reflection and practical growth.
Jennie will speak to something just as powerful, hope. Through her work and lived experience, she brings a compassionate and grounding perspective on healing, offering insight and encouragement for survivors of trauma, and reminding us that there is always a way forward.
Together, this evening will explore
• Stories of hope and survival
• How to really listen, not just hear
• How to ask “are you okay” in a way that matters
• Creating space for honesty, connection, and change
This is more than an event; it is a conversation that could change how we show up for each other.
At our Wonder Women event, we’ll have a beautiful selection of clothing available to purchase.
There are no set prices, just choose what you love and contribute an amount that feels right for you. We’ll have a space set up so you can come in early, take your time, and try pieces on to find what feels good for you.
It’s all about generosity, accessibility, and enjoying the experience together. Every dollar raised will be donated to Cambodia Charitable Trust, supporting meaningful work and communities in need.
Limited spaces available
