Financial freedom starts with the courage to take control of your money.

In this inspiring and actionable session, Michelle Robertson will equip you with practical tools to build financial confidence and create a life of freedom and possibility. You’ll gain clear strategies for managing your money, setting goals that align with your values, and making impactful financial decisions to support the life you desire.

In recent sessions, Michelle has guided 150+ women to redefine their relationship with money, build clarity around their financial goals, and take confident steps toward lasting security and wealth (and helped them make money moves that collectively amount to $40 million in retirement).

This is your chance to stop worrying about money and start making it work for you. Take the first step toward building the financial foundation you deserve.

Do your fears and worries feel like they’re keeping you stuck?

In this empowering workshop, Shannon Talbot—author of Breaking Free—will guide you through identifying the fears holding you back and show you practical steps to overcome them. Using relatable stories and actionable exercises, Shannon will help you reframe self-doubt and build a roadmap to move forward with confidence.

In recent sessions, Shannon has helped women embrace their fears, rewrite their stories, and take bold steps toward creating a life they love.

Imagine a future where fear no longer holds you back. This is your chance to take control and step boldly into your fullest potential.

Have you ever dreamed of chasing bigger goals but felt self-doubt holding you back?

In this transformative masterclass, award-winning speaker and 2x best-selling author Leisse Wilcox will empower you to unlock your true potential. You’ll discover how to align your self-worth with your actions, push past hesitation, and take bold, meaningful steps toward the life you want.

For too long, women have been taught to put themselves last.

In this powerful talk, Jackie Dumaine will challenge the idea that self-sacrifice is noble and reveal why prioritizing yourself is the key to meaningful transformation. Through compelling insights and practical frameworks, you’ll learn how to navigate the chaos of change, confidently set boundaries, and embrace the journey of becoming the woman you’re meant to be.

Jackie’s wisdom comes from years of guiding women to see the turbulence of change as an opportunity, not a crisis, and to honour themselves as non-negotiable.

It’s time to rewrite the rules and make yourself a priority. Discover how putting yourself first can lead to a life of authenticity, impact, and fulfilment.

Have you ever felt lost or uncertain during life’s big transitions?

In this transformative talk, Nelanthini Rajesan will guide you through the "heroine’s journey," a four-stage roadmap to self discovery, resilience, and empowerment.

Success begins with embracing the unknown.

In this engaging session, serial entrepreneur Dani Kagan will share how she built thriving businesses by taking bold risks and turning challenges into opportunities. You’ll learn to cultivate a risk-ready mindset, build resilience, and transform setbacks into stepping stones toward success—whether in your career, business, or personal life.

Join us for an engaging panel discussion on wealth building, where we’ll explore both the strategies for financial success and the mindset shifts needed to overcome fear and build confidence.

Michelle (a seasoned finance expert) will lead the conversation, joined by Victoria Cluney, a seasoned real estate investor with over 20 years of experience, Lisa Hannam, Editor-in-Chief of MoneySense magazine, and Shannon Talbot, an everyday investor navigating her own wealth-building journey. Shannon brings a relatable perspective to the panel, showing that you don’t need to be a financial expert to take control of your money—you just need the right tools and support.

Alongside these active investors sharing their experiences, this panel will offer a dynamic mix of expert insights, personal journeys, and practical advice. Whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your financial knowledge, this discussion will leave you inspired and equipped to take action on your wealth-building journey!

Lisa Schmidt is your hype queen, guide, and energy booster for the day (aka the MC!)

She'll keep the momentum going, making sure everything flows smoothly—from introducing inspiring speakers to leading engaging exercises that get you thinking (and maybe even moving!). Expect fun recaps, interactive moments to reflect on what you've learned, and yes, probably some dancing to keep the vibes high. Her job? To make sure you stay engaged, energized, and ready to soak in all the magic of Her Assembly!

The Energy Reset is a fun, freeing, and feel-good session designed to help you reconnect with yourself, shake off inhibitions, and open up for what’s ahead.
