How to Live a Life of Change: Shaping our future from a feminine perspective
Host: Lynne Franks
As more women become leaders in society, how we can embrace a new feminine approach to leadership in all we do?
5 Sessions, Starts June 19
Women around the world today are beginning to demonstrate their courage and potential as leaders of a new paradigm. But committing to a life of change, so we can participate in creating the future we want to see, presents us with so many challenges.
- How do we create a new society based on co-operation and unity, and what does it look like?
- How can you weave together in your own life the wisdom of the body, an enlightened relationship to finance, a compassionate spirituality, and a direct connection to your inner wisdom, to come to balance in your own power?
- How can you embody these qualities of change at your very core and become a model of change for others through example
Investigate these crucial questions with Lynne Franks this summer in online video conversations together with extraordinary women visionaries – and take part in the discussion! Together we will explore the many feminine qualities needed for personal and professional fulfillment that we so often take for granted.
For more than two decades, Lynne Franks has been at the forefront of the many movements of change where women's issues meet social responsibility, partnering with some of the leading visionary women of our time. In her books, lectures and workshops, she has spread enthusiasm for a futurist vision that honors the feminine in all aspects of our society, and respects the sanctity of the planet. As the founder of SEED, she has been training women entrepreneurs on how to apply transformational values and practices to the achievement of their dreams, and has delivered learning programs with partners such as the The Prince'sTrust.
