THE POWER OF CONFIDENCE: UNLEASH YOUR PEAK POTENTIAL

Stefanie Couch, Build Women

Confidence is a powerful tool in life. However, statistics reveal a startling fact: 80% of women struggle with their confidence, leading to self-doubt and a quietening of their voices. It’s time to turn up the volume on our voices and ask for what we want in life... Leaping over fear and advocating for ourselves. This presentation aims to inspire women to break the silence and use their voices as tools for self-advocacy. The ten practical “hacks” Stefanie shares can be used immediately, serving as a starting point for growth and achieving big goals. By voicing their ideas and dreams, women not only assert their unique identities, but also unlock their full potential. The goal is to turn the hushed whispers of self-doubt into a powerful chorus of self-confidence and self-advocacy. When women amplify their voices, they amplify their lives, discovering the true power within them. It's time for women to unmute their potential and speak up with the power of confidence.

PANEL DISCUSSION: WOMEN IN LUMBER AND FORESTRY

A collection of women in prominent positions in the industry discuss their experiences and answer questions about how they got to where they are.
