Navigating Corporate Trauma
Wed, Nov 18, 5:30 PMNavigating Corporate Trauma From Surviving to Thriving: Reclaim Your Confidence, Your Voice & Your Power Have you ever walked away from a workplace feeling less confident, less valued, or questioning your own abilities? Perhaps you’ve experienced a toxic boss, workplace bullying, discrimination, gaslighting, betrayal, burnout, or a corporate culture that slowly chipped away at your confidence. Maybe you left that environment behind, but the impact followed you into your next role, your relationships, or even the way you see yourself. You’re not alone. And your workplace experiences do not have to define your future. Join Women on the RISE for an empowering, thought-provoking, and practical evening dedicated to understanding, navigating, and recovering from corporate trauma. This isn’t another traditional networking event or leadership seminar. It’s an opportunity to have the conversations that too often go unspoken in the corporate world. What You’ll Discover During this interactive three-hour workshop, we’ll explore: * Recognising Corporate Trauma: Understand how toxic workplace experiences, bullying, discrimination, exclusion, and chronic stress can affect your confidence, identity, and career. * Breaking Free from Self-Doubt: Explore how workplace experiences can contribute to imposter feelings, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of speaking up. * Rebuilding Your Confidence: Discover practical techniques to reconnect with your strengths, trust your judgment, and reclaim your professional voice. * Setting Healthy Boundaries: Learn strategies for recognising red flags, protecting your wellbeing, and navigating challenging workplace dynamics. * Moving from Surviving to Thriving: Develop a personal action plan to move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose. What Makes This Workshop Different? We believe that professional success should never come at the expense of your wellbeing. This workshop creates space for real conversations, meaningful connections, practical strategies, and personal reflection. You’ll have opportunities to connect with other ambitious women who understand the pressures of professional life, share experiences if you choose, and learn strategies you can apply immediately. You won’t be expected to disclose personal experiences. Participation is always your choice, and the session is designed to be supportive and respectful. Who Should Attend? This event is for women at every stage of their professional journey, particularly those who: * Have experienced toxic or challenging workplace environments. * Are recovering from burnout or a difficult professional experience. * Feel their confidence has been affected by workplace experiences. * Are navigating a career transition or returning to work. * Want to become more resilient, self-assured leaders. * Lead teams and want to create psychologically safer workplaces. Whether you’re an emerging leader, senior executive, entrepreneur, or woman navigating your next chapter, this evening is for you. Event Details Date: Wednesday, 18 November 2026 Time: 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM Location: Central London (exact venue to be announced) Hosted by: Women on the RISE Theme: Heal • Reset • Lead • Thrive Come for the Conversation. Leave with a New Perspective. Imagine walking into a room filled with ambitious, accomplished women who understand that behind every successful career is a story that isn’t always visible. Imagine leaving with renewed confidence, practical tools, meaningful connections, and a clearer vision of the leader you want to become. Your past workplace experiences may have shaped your journey, but they don’t have to determine your destination. At Women on the RISE, we believe in lifting one another, rising together, and soaring beyond the limitations placed upon us. Reserve your place and join us for an evening of reflection, connection, empowerment, and growth. Women on the RISE — Lift. Rise. Soar. Real Conversations. Practical Strategies. Lasting Change. I would position this on Meetup and LinkedIn as a premium, interactive leadership and wellbeing workshop, rather than a trauma support group. That helps attract corporate professionals, managers, senior leaders and women in career transition while keeping the subject approachable. One important distinction: unless a qualified trauma professional is facilitating, the event should be presented as an educational, supportive workshop rather than therapy or a promise of trauma healing.

AI Is Changing the Rules. Are You Ready?
Tue, Nov 17, 6:00 PM**Live Fireside Chat at 7 PM \| High\-Value Networking \| Leading Through AI Podcast Launch** AI is changing the way we work, lead and think about the future. And while everyone seems to be talking about the technology, I'm much more interested in the people behind it. Some roles are disappearing. New ones are emerging. Companies are rethinking how they operate, and leaders are being asked to deliver transformations that nobody has quite figured out yet. And whether you're leading a business, managing a team or thinking about your next career move, there's one question worth asking: **How do you make sure you're on the right side of this change?** I'm bringing together founders, executives, tech leaders and ambitious professionals from across my network for an evening of honest conversations, new perspectives and some seriously good networking. And we're celebrating the launch of my new podcast, **Leading Through AI!** 🎙️ **Follow the podcast on [Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/show/3ePOAN7ySjJVSdNdEGAQvK "https://open.spotify.com/show/3ePOAN7ySjJVSdNdEGAQvK") or subscribe on [YouTube](https://youtu.be/QH_wWGpDXtA "https://youtu.be/QH_wWGpDXtA")** so you don't miss the launch! ## 7 PM \| Fireside Chat: AI\, Careers & Leadership — What You Need to Know I'll be swapping the interviewer's seat for the hot seat, with **[Steve Wilde](https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-wilde/ "https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-wilde/") CEO of NVOY Technologies** asking me the questions! Over the past months, I've been working closely with organisations navigating AI transformation, while continuing to coach executives and professionals on their leadership and careers. And I'm seeing some fascinating changes happening inside businesses. We're going to get into the questions I believe every leader and ambitious professional should be thinking about right now. * **The future of careers: Where are the opportunities?** * **Leading AI transformation: What does it actually take?** * **What should you be doing differently today?** And yes, **we'll make time for your questions too!** ## The Networking: Come Meet Your Next Opportunity If you've been to one of my Together in Tech events before, you'll know how much I love bringing people together. And this is exactly the kind of room I believe we all need to be in right now. We're bringing together people from across tech, business, leadership and AI transformation. Expect to meet founders building exciting businesses, executives leading change, people exploring their next career move and curious minds who are eager to learn and connect. **Because sometimes the most valuable thing you take away from an event isn't something you heard on stage. It's someone you met in the room.** Whether you're looking for new ideas, collaborations, career opportunities or simply brilliant people to exchange thoughts with, I'd love for you to be part of it. ## And of Course... We're Celebrating! After months of recording conversations with some incredible CEOs, CTOs, founders and senior executives, I'm finally launching **Leading Through AI**, my new podcast exploring the human side of AI transformation. We'll share a little sneak peek of what's coming, raise a glass and celebrate together! ## 🥂 What to expect * **A live fireside chat at 7 PM** exploring AI, careers, leadership and transformation, with audience Q&A * **High-value networking** with founders, executives, tech leaders and professionals * **Drinks & delicious bites** in a relaxed, fun atmosphere * **An exclusive podcast sneak peek** and a chance to celebrate the launch together **If you're serious about navigating the AI opportunity, whether for your organisation or your own career, this is a conversation worth being part of.** Places are limited, so grab your spot and come join us! **I can't wait to see you there! ❤️** ### About your host **Yota Trom \| Executive Coach & AI Transformation Advisor \| Founder\, Together in Tech** Yota brings together nearly two decades of experience in technology, leadership and coaching, including leadership roles at Amazon and Yahoo.
