Hello, I am Bernie Davies, Creator of Your Way Empowerment Series, TEDx Speaker, 2x Bestselling Author, DEI Advisor, Entrepreneur and Former Lawyer with a successful legal career spanning 21 years, who has seen her fair share of change and has learnt a thing or two about mastering change as a 21st century woman. I have been privileged to speak at the United Nations, the House of Lords, Royal Society London, Excel Arena and more on circumnavigating the many facets of change.
Women are "birthers" and by nature the carriers of change. They are expected to work alongside men in the corporate world, the third sector and as entrepreneurs, whilst still be excellent wives and mothers. They do so with the Gender pay gap still at 12% and are expected to handle the changes that come their way with the same strength of character, resilience and imagination as their male counterparts.
In this post pandemic era, change is inevitable. Accepting and maximising the opportunities that change offers is therefore an imperative. In this Retreat Day 1, Cody Gapare, Desiree Peterkin Bell, Durdana Ansari OBE Eula Clarke our Patron Mercy Gilbert and I, will explore how we've had to deal with change, how we all have seen our worlds changing, what are the potential challenges this new season brings and how we suggest one prepares for it.
Day 2, ALL GENDERS are welcome.
We will be rubbing shoulders with like minded dignitaries at the House of Lords where we will be inspired by Keynote Speakers, Alison Edgar MBE, Drs Detina & Argita Zalli to name a few. Our event Patron and Host Mercy Gilbert will be there to welcome us at the Palace of Westminster .
January 2022, I launched my Your Way Empowerment LinkedIn Live monthly series to offer a platform for likeminded women of any race, colour or creed to share their story, encourage and inspire. Cody and Desiree agreed to become my resident panellists and we had the most fantastic year chewing over some very difficult issues at times, namely the UK Barrister strikes with Dr Sally Penni MBE , Barrister at Law fleeing violence, becoming refugees who now top the field of medicine and science at the world's most prestigious institutions of education and medicine with the Zalli Twins or dealing with Bias with Lisa Durden, and a light hearted modern look at etiquette with Number 1 Bestselling author of "A Dash of Decorum 101 Tips to guide you through Formal and informal Dining Events" Julia Esteve Boyd, consultant to Royalty.
In 2023, I felt it was the natural progression to be able to host an event where women could meet face to face and learn from us and each other. We wanted the venue to reflect the heart and minds of the entrepreneur who is not afraid to dream big and reach for things, places and people outside of the ordinary. We wanted to provide a progamme of inspiration, education and strategic direction. We have an action packed day for you.
