Powerhouse Women Event: A Catalyst for Transformation

Introduction

Today, I’m sharing my transformative journey at the Powerhouse Women event, organized by the incredible Lindsey Schwartz. This isn’t just another event recap—it’s a personal story of growth, inspiration, and the sheer power of community. If you’re looking to expand your life and inhabit your dreams, you’re in the right place!

What is the Powerhouse Women Event?

The Powerhouse Women event is an annual gathering that Lindsey Schwartz describes as a “New Year’s Eve” for the PW community. It’s a time to reflect on our accomplishments, express gratitude, and set bold intentions for the year ahead. Surrounded by visionary leaders, this event proves that our dreams are not only achievable but destined if we’re willing to take action.

The Contrast: From Feeling Stuck to Empowered

When I attended the event last year, I felt like I didn’t belong. I was paralyzed by fear and imposter syndrome, doubting my place in the room. Fast forward to this year, and the transformation has been profound. I walked in with confidence, knowing I belonged among these powerful women. It’s amazing what one year of personal growth can do!

Life-Changing Moments

A pivotal moment for me was hearing Dr. Emily Jacobs speak. Her young daughters were in the back of the room, beaming with pride, and that lit a fire in me. I realized that I need to chase my dreams not only for myself but also for my daughter. If I want her to pursue her dreams fearlessly, I must lead by example.

The Power of Investing in Yourself

Last year, I didn’t have a clear direction—no book, no program, no roadmap. But investing in the Powerhouse Women event changed everything. Being surrounded by such inspirers gave me the clarity and push I needed to launch my program and write Higher Self Habits, which is now an Amazon bestseller! That one decision to invest in myself completely transformed my life.

Bold Declarations and Future Aspirations

This year, I’m making bold declarations. I will manage my finances better, grow my business to multiple six figures, and impact hundreds—if not thousands—of lives. I’m also laser-focused on stepping onto stages and sharing the message of flexible, women-centric habits. Watch out world, here I come!

Unapologetic Asks

One of the most empowering moments at the event was when Lindsey asked all the speakers to make unapologetic asks. Here are mine:

1. Speaking Opportunities: If you have a stage or a retreat, I’d love to speak at your event.

2. Podcast Guesting: If you have a podcast, I’d love to be a guest and share my insights.

Conclusion

The Powerhouse Women event has truly been a catalyst for my transformation—from feeling stuck and insignificant to becoming a bestselling author and an impactful speaker. If you’re struggling with fear or imposter syndrome, know this: transformation is possible. Invest in yourself, step into rooms that challenge you, and make bold decisions. Your future self will thank you.
