Speaking & Workshops

Career design frameworks combining design + brand thinking—delivered at events and conferences for accomplished women designing what's next.

My Speaking Philosophy

Today's accomplished women have deep professional experience but often struggle with two critical challenges during career transitions: gaining clarity about what they actually want and positioning themselves strategically to achieve it.

Whether designing new roles, building consulting practices, establishing thought leadership, or creating work that better aligns with their values, they need strategic frameworks that combine clarity (design thinking) with positioning (brand thinking).

Through talks and workshops grounded in my Career Design Blueprint™, I help women:

These sessions combine design thinking for clarity with brand strategy for positioning, resulting in actionable frameworks and measurable progress towards intentional career design.

I had the pleasure of welcoming Lila Bartkovic as a guest speaker on my mastermind for mom entrepreneurs, where she shared invaluable insights on crafting a brand that aligns with purpose, creates standout positioning, builds a meaningful presence, and delivers authentic promotion. Lila’s ability to break down the branding process into actionable steps was inspiring. If you’re looking for someone who aligns your values with your brand, Lila is your go-to expert. I highly recommend her for creating a brand that’s impactful and authentic.

Lila has packed so much value into her online workshop "From invisible to remarkable" that I attended. She provided several practical steps for building a remarkable personal brand. What stood out to me the most was her unique approach of making us travel in time and visualize our future selves in an extraordinary way. This is something I will definitely be going back to on my own!

I had the opportunity to work with Lila in 2024. What started as a personal branding collaboration ended up being so much more, a real eye-opener and inspiration to challenge myself and my beliefs in ways that make the career path ahead of me so much clearer, and so much more fun! With her approach, her methods and her deep expertise, she was able to provide a true inspiration and guidance. I really recommend any woman wanting to be true to herself and pursue her full potential to reach out to Lila.

Working with Lila to develop my personal brand - from essence to visuals - was eye-opening, fun and personally incredibly enriching. Lila's structured, thoughtful, creative and highly personalised approach helped me do just that – clarify my personal value proposition and goals and translating it into a warm and elegant look to match. Lila is fantastic and she very skillfully helps you bring your personal brand story to the surface and embed it in a creative concept that fits your personality. Highly recommended.

Lila is amazing! She is that rare find of a person that is not only ridiculously talented but incredibly committed to producing the best possible product and experience for her clients. The process Lila took me through to develop my branding was filled with “aha moments” and insights into how I want to authentically show up in this world. If you’re lucky enough to have an opportunity to work with Lila, please jump at the chance. She is truly one of a kind!

I am so happy about how Lila helped me to visualize my intent and purpose with my brand and how nicely she has captured my vibe and tone. I can warmly recommend Lila.

Lila is a passionate professional. She is brave enough to suggest what she believes would work the best, not just follow the standards to please the customer. The workshop approach she created can really help you understand WHY and reach CLARITY. She helps you to express this the best way to be well understood and seen by others. Her sense of beauty also plays a very important role. Going through personal branding discovery with Lila is one of the best and most meaningful experiences on my professional journey.
