The People-Pleasing Trap: How Smart Women Get Stuck Softening Themselves at Work

Thursday, February 19
10 am PT /11 am MT / 1 pm ET

People-pleasing shows up in a thousand small ways: saying yes when you want to say no, agreeing to timelines you know aren’t realistic, over-explaining to avoid disappointing someone, or staying quiet when you have a different opinion.
In this 60-minute session, we’ll explore why these patterns show up and what you can do in the moment to change them. You’ll learn simple, repeatable strategies to speak up sooner, say the harder thing without spiraling, and stop carrying work that doesn’t belong to you.
Emily Feairs – CEO, Principal Strategist, and Coach – brings a wealth of experience and a powerful, inclusive perspective on advancing workplace equity and women’s leadership. This event echoes The Prosperity Project’s mission: supporting women’s economic security and leadership. When we elevate women’s voices, we uplift communities.

Play the Game with Integrity: Political Acumen for Women in Leadership

Monday, April 20
10 am PT /11 am MT / 1 pm ET

Organizational politics often spark discomfort, especially among women leaders who value authenticity and impact. But dismissing political dynamics as manipulative or distasteful can quietly block access to influence, visibility, and decision-making power at the top. This workshop offers a bold reframe: political acumen isn’t about playing games, it’s about leading with context awareness, integrity, and intention.
In this 90-minute session, you will learn how to reframe political acumen as a leadership skill rather than a compromise of values, understand the real sources of power, and flex your approach to influence without losing yourself. We’ll also debunk the myth of why political skill doesn’t violate integrity, but amplifies your ability to lead with it.
This workshop is ideal for women in mid-to-senior leadership roles, technical or mission-driven leaders ready to expand their influence, and emerging executives who want to learn how to navigate power, not avoid it.

Sandeep Aujla, Executive & Team Coach and Facilitator, Multilevel Leadership Consulting Inc. and Contributing Visionary with The Prosperity Project
