Other Services

1. Is this a one-time fee or a membership fee that will be charged each month?

It’s a one-time fee. Each month features a unique topic that may or may not resonate with you, so you only pay for the sessions you choose to attend. 

2. Why are so few permitted to join each roundtable? 

To maintain an intimate and supportive atmosphere where everyone has the opportunity to participate fully, each roundtable is limited to 12 women. 

3. Why is this women-only? 

The purpose of these conversations is to uplift, inspire, and tap into the unique strength and power that women embody. These sessions are designed by women, for women, to allow for a safe and empowering space.

4. What can I hope to gain from attending?

While this isn’t a coaching session, you’ll have the chance to reflect on thought-provoking questions, share your responses, and hear insights from others. The process helps you: 

– Get your thoughts out of your head, which can bring clarity. 

– Gain inspiration, motivation, or fresh ideas from others’ experiences. 

– Find support and accountability to move forward with decisions or next steps. 

It’s a collaborative space where ideas can hatch, perspectives shift, and progress begins

5. What happens if I can’t attend after registering?

If you’re unable to attend, refunds are available if requested at least 24 hours before the session begins. Unfortunately, refunds cannot be granted for cancellations made less than 24 hours before the event. 

6. How are the sessions structured?

Each roundtable is a 2.5-hour facilitated conversation held online via Zoom. The session includes: 

– A brief introduction to the topic. 

– Thought-provoking questions for reflection and discussion. 

– Time for each participant to share and contribute to the conversation. 

The goal is to create a space for meaningful dialogue, reflection, and connection. 

7. Do I need to prepare anything beforehand?

No preparation is required! Just bring yourself, an open mind, something to write on, and a willingness to engage in the conversation.

8. Will there be a replay of the sessions so that I can listen back to them?

While the sessions will be recorded for facilitation purposes, they will not be shared as replays. This policy helps maintain the confidentiality and trust of all participants. 

9. How do you ensure confidentiality? 

Confidentiality is a core value of the Women Rising Roundtables. Both the facilitator and participants agree not to share details of the conversation that could identify others. This ensures a safe and supportive environment for everyone. 

10. Who facilitates the roundtables?

The roundtables are facilitated by Patricia Brooks, The Courage Catalyst, who has been facilitating group conversations for over four years. She creates a welcoming, empowering space for women to connect, share, and grow.

11. How do I know if this is for me? 

If you’re a woman who has ever felt dejected by life or current events, or if you’re seeking to reignite your sense of agency, joy, and purpose, these roundtables are for you. Each session offers the opportunity to reflect, connect, and take steps toward feeling more empowered about your life and future. If you are ready for a change in your life, this is the perfect place to start.

12. Will there be future topics?

Yes! Women Rising Roundtables are held monthly, each with a unique theme designed to inspire and empower. You can choose the topics that resonate most with you.
