About Event

Your favourite femme-only event is back! This time, we have a theme: "I was one of the boys 😔".

The lovely Georgia Tsiamanta will help start the conversation by sharing her story.

Were you too "one of the boys"? How did you snap out of that mentality? Join us!


What is Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss?

This is a very laid-back, informal online get-together for femmes in the workplace.

Not even in tech either - any industry will do, any skill level. A seasoned professional that only gets more cynical as the years go by? Amazing. A management rookie? Lovely, this is the perfect space for you.

There is no monetisation, shilling, or selling courses, webinars, or paid newsletters. I just wanted to get a group of femmes together to discuss our lived experiences. I will probably get into mentoring mode during the meeting (stop me, please), but the main idea here is to feel safe and share your stories.

Some of the topics that often come up:

  • Why doesn't my manager advocate for my work?

  • How do I manage an older man in my team?

  • What does "be more strategic" mean?

  • Should I wake up at 5am, meditate and cook three homemade meals to be a girl boss?

  • How can I be assertive without being bossy?

  • Am I being unreasonable when...? (spoiler: you're not)

Every signup will be approved to make this a safe space for all. Not an exclusive thing, more of a "let's not make this another men event" thing.
