A great series of events!
“Courageous Conversations are a great series of events that allow people to open up and share. Even as someone who considers herself socially educated, Axelle always teaches me things in a way I had not considered before. Getting together in a group of people who are committed to having the hard conversations renews my hope in our ability to connect and relate with one another.”

A whole new world opened up for me!
“The first time attending the Courageous Conversations event was as if a whole new world opened up for me. One where I was able to meet people who have been through my similar experiences and have encountered similar life obstacles due to their identity, whether that be gender, or if they suffer from similar mental health conditions. It was a space where I felt seen, heard and understood. It was my first time feeling the love from such a safe space, and I encourage people who have either experienced burnout, workplace bullying or who are struggling with self-identity to join one of Laudace’s workshops. . I’m happy to have found my people here!”
