SUMMARY:NEW! Own Your Power: 4 Lessons from Women Who Built\, Adapted and Grew
DESCRIPTION:Own Your Power: 4 Lessons from Women Who Built\, Adapted & Grew\nHave you ever questioned whether you’re resilient enough to navigate setbacks\, confident enough to communicate your value\, or connected enough to grow your business? Entrepreneurship requires more than a strong business model. It also requires the mindset and relationships needed to move forward when things don’t go according to plan. \nOwn Your Power: 4 Lessons from Women Who Built\, Adapted & Grew is Part 2 of our Women Who Built It: 9 Business Lessons from 9 Women Entrepreneurs series. This interactive Lunch & Learn explores the human side of entrepreneurship through the experiences of women who have successfully navigated growth\, change\, challenges\, and reinvention. \nLearn From Women Who Built\, Adapted & Grew\nBuilding a business isn’t only about having the right business model. It also requires the confidence to communicate your value\, resilience when things don’t go according to plan\, relationships that open doors\, and the ability to adapt as your business evolves. \nDuring this workshop\, you’ll explore the journeys of Liliane Colpron\, Sophia Amoruso\, Arlene Dickinson\, and Manjit Minhas. Through their experiences of pitching\, rejection\, reinvention\, partnerships\, resilience\, and growth\, you’ll discover practical lessons about the personal capabilities that support long-term entrepreneurial success. \nWhat You’ll Learn\nDevelop the Human Side of Entrepreneurship\n\nExplore confidence and resilience as entrepreneurial capabilities.\nLearn how entrepreneurs navigate rejection\, uncertainty\, and setbacks.\nUnderstand the role of networks\, partnerships\, and relationships in business growth.\nExplore how personal identity and lived experience can shape an entrepreneurial journey.\nSee how adaptability helps entrepreneurs evolve and grow.\n\nStrengthen Your Own Entrepreneurial Journey\n\nReflect on your own strengths\, gaps\, and support networks.\nIdentify opportunities to build confidence and resilience.\nThink strategically about the relationships that can support your growth.\nLearn how the Business Model Canvas can help connect these elements.\nLeave with practical questions and next steps for your venture.\n\nWhy Attend?\nA business model can tell you what a business does\, but it doesn’t tell the whole entrepreneurial story. \nEntrepreneurs also need to communicate\, negotiate\, build relationships\, recover from setbacks\, and make decisions when there is no clear answer. These capabilities can have a major impact on whether a business moves forward. \nThrough real examples rather than abstract theory\, this session invites participants to look at entrepreneurship more holistically and recognize that there is no single profile or pathway to entrepreneurial success. \nWho Should Attend?\n\nWomen entrepreneurs navigating uncertainty or transition.\nEntrepreneurs preparing to pitch\, sell\, or communicate their business.\nImmigrant and newcomer entrepreneurs building networks in a new market.\nSelf-employed professionals looking to grow beyond their individual capacity.\nEntrepreneurs who want to strengthen their confidence\, resilience\, and support network.\n\nWorkshop Details\nWorkshop: Own Your Power: 4 Lessons from Women Who Built\, Adapted & Grew\nSpeaker: Azadeh Monfared\, ELLEvate Business Coach\, YES\nDate: Wednesday\, October 14\, 2026\nTime: 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM\nLocation: Online\nCost: Free \nRegister today and discover how confidence\, resilience\, adaptability\, and meaningful relationships can help you strengthen your entrepreneurial journey and move your business forward. \n\n\nRegister Today!\n\nThis workshop is made accessible to you at no cost\, thanks to generous funding from the Government of Canada and Yspace: York University. \n*Please Note: Pre-registration is required.
