Power Circles: Career Clarity For Mid-Senior women

Great careers have great strategies, tools and networks

You're not imagining it. The hidden rules are real — and you can't navigate what you can't see.

According to McKinsey and LeanIn.Org's Women in the Workplace 2025 report, only half of companies now prioritise women's career advancement, and for the first time there is a measurable ambition gap — not because women care less, but because without support, even the most motivated women start to question whether advancement is worth the cost.

You cannot afford to wait for your company to prioritise your progression. But you can take your future into your own hands so that you:

  • Understand the difference between mentoring, coaching and sponsorship, and find the right people to fill those roles.

  • Know what your yes costs you, so you don't burn out on the journey.

  • Build your confidence strategically, stretching into discomfort to develop skills that take you somewhere new.

Women who completed Power Circles reported a 53% increase in career clarity and an 80% reduction in intentions to leave their role.

You'll leave with the clarity, confidence and skills to navigate your career on your own terms and finally, the tools to actually use them.

What you’ll learn

You'll learn the hidden rules so you can progress on your own terms. You'll leave with strategy, clarity and career skills for life.

  • Learn the difference between brand and marketing so you can articulate your value with clarity and intention

  • Use a 3-part framework to define your purpose, values and strengths and turn them into a personal brand statement

  • Identify practical ways to activate your brand and build authentic visibility in your industry

  • Understand the difference between self-efficacy and self-esteem and how both shape your confidence at work

  • Recognise how negative self-talk undermines your ability to advocate for yourself and learn how to interrupt it

  • Build a practical confidence toolkit using mastery experiences, peer learning and mentorship

  • Understand how informal power structures work and where hidden opportunities actually come from

  • Learn how to network authentically so opportunities find you without it feeling forced or transactional

  • Build a networking strategy that gives you stability and strength even when things go wrong

  • Understand how mindset and emotional regulation shape negotiation outcomes before you enter the room

  • Apply a practical 3-move framework to negotiate salary, scope and boundaries with confidence

  • Learn how negotiation differs for women and women of colour and how to use that knowledge strategically

  • Understand what self-boundaries are and why they are the foundation for every external boundary you set

  • Evaluate what your yes is costing you so you can start spending it wisely

  • Build a boundaries practice rooted in your values so protecting yourself feels empowering, not selfish

  • Connect with a cohort of mid-senior women navigating the same system across industries and geographies

  • Build peer relationships that provide support, accountability and honest feedback in real time

  • Leave with an active network you can lean on long after the four sessions end

Who this course is for

  • The mid-senior professional who is good at her job, has been passed over or side-stepped, and can't figure out why.

  • The woman considering a career change or job move. Not because she wants to leave, but because she can't see how to grow where she is.

  • The ambitious woman who is progressing but feels alone. She has no sponsor, no real network & is figuring it out by trial and error.

Testimonials

  • Power Circles came at exactly the right moment for me. I had just stepped down from a senior role in the arts and decided to go freelance, so having a space to reflect, learn, and rebuild confidence was incredibly valuable.

    Each session focused on a specific area of growth, from branding and visibility to confidence and wellbeing, and every conversation brought new clarity and perspective. The guest experts added real depth, and the mix of women in the group made the discussions rich, honest, and supportive.

    Selicia and Krista created an environment that felt encouraging, thoughtful, and genuinely empowering. I left with practical tools, new connections, and a stronger sense of direction.

    Ten out of ten recommend.

  • When I saw Krista’s post about Power Circles on LinkedIn, I immediately felt it was exactly what I needed during a very unstable stage of my freelance journey.

    The programme gave me practical tools around negotiation, boundaries, confidence, and personal branding, but the biggest value was the sense of support and accountability. I was paired with an incredible accountability partner and, even now, we still check in weekly and support each other.

    Power Circles reminded me that growth doesn’t have to happen alone. I would highly recommend it to any woman building her own path and wanting both strategy and community around her.

  • Participating in Power Circles was an enriching experience both professionally and personally. The programme was extremely well organised, thoughtfully facilitated, and manageable alongside full-time work, which made it accessible without feeling overwhelming.

    One of the most valuable parts of the experience was the diversity and engagement of the cohort itself. The conversations were insightful, supportive, and full of different perspectives, and the community has continued beyond the programme through ongoing connections and conversations.

    I’ve returned to the programme materials multiple times since the course ended and would wholeheartedly recommend Power Circles to any woman looking to grow her confidence, skills, and network.

  • Participating in Power Circles was an incredibly valuable experience that resonated with me both personally and professionally.

    What stood out most was the way the programme acknowledged how interconnected our personal and professional lives really are. So many development spaces treat them separately, but Power Circles created room for honest conversations about both, which made the experience feel more practical, sustainable, and real.

    The sessions fostered genuine community, thoughtful discussion, and meaningful reflection. I left feeling more empowered, more informed, and connected to a network of women I could continue learning from long after the programme ended.

  • Power Circles created a space where I felt safe, supported, and able to be honest from the very beginning. The conversations, tools, and expert guidance throughout the programme were incredibly impactful.

    One of the biggest things I gained was a deeper understanding of myself, what I want, what I need, and how I want to grow moving forward. The negotiation techniques alone have already made a real difference in both my work and personal life.

    The facilitators brought genuine expertise and care to every session, and the community aspect made the experience even more valuable. I only wish the programme had been longer.
