YOU ARE INVITED
This is your personal invitation to a special in-person gathering....
Join us for an afternoon to celebrate women in business  - as we explore together what it takes to succeed as a female leader.
An afternoon of connection, action-oriented discussion, inspiration and ideas.
Two dates available: 28th May 2026 or 17th June 2026, hosted at "Platform" in Leeds.
TOGETHER STRONGER
It feels like every day there is another story about how hard it is to be a female leader or woman in business. How we're still under-represented, or struggling to juggle family life, or being underpaid or undervalued.
In truth, there has never been a better time to step into your leadership power.
There are more opportunities than ever before in history for female leaders to bring their unique strengths to bear.
And the research shows that having access to an ambitious and supportive peer group is essential. A safe space to grow.
Join UsÂ
We hold monthly sessions in Leeds and London. Sign up below for updates, and come and join our conversations about business growth and leadership.Â
Led by leadership and legal expert
Rachel Flower
This event is hosted by PowerVox - a specialist consultancy - and led by its founder Rachel.
During the session we'll explore some insights on the trends, the stats, the unique challenges faced by senior leaders and how to back yourself for success.Â
"With a background as a commercial lawyer, and 25+ years experience as an advisor on commercial strategy, contracts and business growth - I've now been a business owner myself for 15 years and C-Suite strategic advisor.

I'm mum to 2 teenage daughters and am passionate about empowering leaders to speak with clarity to create impact." - RachelÂ
What it is (and isn't)
The world needs more strong, vital, powerful and intelligent woman running impact-led businesses. There are many complex problems to be solved, and the alpha leadership culture has left many of us feeling burnt out, distrustful, and playing it small.Â
This is not a retreat or a workshop.
It’s a thoughtful, embodied reset for capable women who want space to think better.
Join us...
It’s only half a day.
But sometimes half a day is all it takes to think differently.
You don’t need a week away on a leadership retreat.
You don’t need another strategy document.
You don’t need more noise.
You need space.
Space to think clearly.
Space to reconnect.
Space to step out of the constant mental load and the responsibilities.
This half-day experience is a curated taster of The Greenhouse -
a calm, intelligent environment designed for women who are leading, building, creating… and carrying a lot.
The Greenhouse Experience
 It's only an afternoon - but a lot can happen!
Just imagine.
You're not logging in to do a Teams meeting.
You're not sat at your desk with the many distractions around you.
You're in a room, in a beautiful relaxed setting. Helping your mind and your brain and your thinking stretch and grow.
We create and curate this space, a safe space, a small group of no more than 12 peers.
You can expect to open up so much opportunity in terms of solutions to problems that you're wrangling with in this very complex world.
Bringing you back to the roots. Only when you have the strong roots can you actually really blossom and grow. Even when you think about these solutions, they are buds; they're all buds, but you need the strong roots for those buds to sort of really explode. In those buds is where a lot of the solutions and the new ideas come.
Who This Is For
This is for you if:
You’re capable.
You’re thoughtful.
You’re carrying responsibility.
And you know you think better when you step out of the noise.
You don’t need fixing.
You don’t need a week away on a leadership retreat. Or another strategy document.
You don’t need more noise.
You need space.
Space to think clearly.
Space to reconnect.
Space to step out of the constant mental load and the responsibilities.Â
The Room where it Happens
We begin gently. Some light and energising openers.
Because when the body softens… the mind opens.
Then we create space for deeper thinking.
You’ll be guided through structured reflection, intelligent prompts, and collaborative conversation designed to help you:
• Untangle a complex challenge you’ve been carrying
• Gain clarity on a decision you’ve been circling
• Reconnect your everyday actions with your deeper values
• Surface ideas that haven’t yet had the right conditions to grow
You will not be put on the spot. You will not be forced to share. But you will feel the powerful shift that happens when thoughtful leaders sit in a room and think well together.
Why it Works
 Being heard in a safe space does something powerful.
Before anything blooms, it strengthens its roots.
Before the blossom, there’s a bud.
And when the conditions are right - warmth, light, space -
that bud opens.
This half day creates those conditions.
Strong roots. Clear thinking. Fresh perspective.
This half-day experience is a curated taster of The Greenhouse -
a calm, intelligent environment designed for women who are leading, building, creating… and carrying a lot.
You’ll Leave With
• A clarified next step (not ten new to-dos)
• Renewed mental energy and inspiration
• A reframed perspective on something that matters
• A sense of connection with peers who “get it”
• A taste of what The Greenhouse feels like in real life
