Speak It Brave: Speaking when you’re put on the spot
Think on your feet. Speak with impact. No prep required!
This month's theme: The "Bad" Ideas Lab 💡
✨ Only 15 spaces available to keep it intimate, high energy, and supportive!
Ever been put on the spot in a meeting, a panel, or a conversation and wished you'd said something better?
Well you're not alone. The ability to speak clearly and confidently off the cuff is one of the most powerful skills you can build and like any skill, it gets stronger with practice.
This monthly, in-person session led by Amber Shand is where you come to practice.
This month, you have full permission to be wrong.
The Bad Ideas Lab is all about arguing for something objectively silly but with total conviction.
Think: "Why we should replace all meetings with 5 minutes of interpretive dance" or "Why every office should have a mandatory nap pod."
You'll spin a random topic, and your job is to make the worst idea sound like the best one using the PREP framework.
No two sessions are the same. The framework stays consistent, the topics and themes change every time. Come once or come every month, you'll get something new each time.
In 90 minutes, you'll:
Learn the PREP framework which is a simple, repeatable structure for making any point clearly and persuasively
Practice speaking off the cuff with random topics in a room full of people who are cheering you on, not judging you
Take on the monthly curveball round with a rotating challenge that changes every session (think: pitching ridiculous products, arguing the opposite of what you believe, or relay speaking with a stranger)
Get real-time, positive feedback from the room on what makes your delivery land
Build the muscle memory so that the next time you're put on the spot, you actually enjoy it
You'll walk away with:
✅ A practical framework you can use in any meeting, interview, or moment in the spotlight
✅ Reps that gives actual practice speaking under (friendly) pressure
✅ The confidence that comes from doing the thing, not just learning about it
✅ A room full of women who get it
It's a workout for your voice, so come ready to play.
