Failing Fast for Women - from the Alveare Collective

November 16, 2018
The Nightwood Society
Portland, Oregon
Registration Closed
Who would you be, and what could you achieve IF you stopped fearing failure? What has your fear of failure cost you professionally, personally, and financially?

FAILING FAST: Men respond positively to this term, but women can find it threatening, or simply a bad fit: we are often taught that the way to succeed is to play it safe.  However, playing it safe can be disempowering or limiting.This is a workshop for women who have learned to play it safe rather than take the risks that are necessary to thrive in the professional world.We will invite you to look at deeply held beliefs that may be holding you back and how to overcome them. Externally, we will take you through exercises to acquaint you with the benefits of failure. And we will present tools that will empower you to be a strong advocate for yourself!

Stop Flying Blind: This workshop will allow you to feel the difference between fear based patterning and true instinct in your body.  You will unlearn “false intuition” – better known as our internalized, automatic response to cultural norms.  We will take you through exercises to acquaint you with the benefits of risk. You will practice self-care and self-talk for when you experience failure.  We want all attendees to have tools to grow individually and to also effectively work toward systemic change.  Join us as we build a community around the shared goals of cultural transformation.

In Silicon Valley, “Failing Fast” is shorthand for the idea that entrepreneurs should give themselves permission to crash, burn, and learn from their mistakes.
