Dynamic(s) Women in Tech Webinar: From ‘Who, Me?’ to ‘Why Not Me?’- Learning to Put Yourself Out There
2025-05-28 12:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York)
Overview:

Tired of hiding in the background while others confidently share, post, and shine? Have a backlog of content ideas and unposted blog drafts that you just can’t bring yourself to hit “publish” on? This webinar is for every overthinker who’s ever hesitated to raise their hand, share their wins, or even post a selfie with a caption.

Join us for a light-hearted, talk-show style conversation between two friends- one nervous (and hilarious) and one brave (but relatable). Together, we’ll unpack what it really means to “put yourself out there” in today’s professional world- especially as women, as people of color and LGBTQIA+, and as humans just trying to figure it out.
Expect laughter, awkward truths, and practical advice.

We’ll share stories of rejections, flopped posts, Power BI competitions (including one speaker who entered four times before making it to the finals!), and how just showing up led to surprising opportunities. Along the way, we’ll also encourage attendees to share their own experiences and support one another as we all take steps to put ourselves out there, together.

You’ll leave this session with:
– Permission to stop waiting for “perfect”.
– A few small ways to get visible your way
– Real talk about fear, growth, and being seen
– And hopefully, a laugh or two at our expense

Whether you’re an introvert, perfectionist, or someone who’s been waiting for a sign- this is it.

Lenore Flower
Lakshmi Ponnurasan
