Today people are accomplishing more than ever – but for every person advancing, many also struggle with believing in themselves, or advocating for their advancement, despite having external success and possessing wildly ambitious goals.
Based on Velera’s award-winning book You’re Absolutely Worth It, this motivational keynote has helped women and men around the world realize they can operate with greater confidence in their careers and everyday life. With real-life examples, methodologies and engaging questions, she challenges your audience to look inward, elevate how they see themselves and their work, so they can go after what they really want and own the rooms and seats they are in.
