MUCH MORE SOCIAL
Your personal brand is more than a marketing tool – it is your platform for influence, connection and meaningful change. Whether you run a business, work within an organisation or lead purpose through a charity or social enterprise, how you show up shapes the impact you make.
In this session, personal branding strategist Ella Orr, founder of Much More Social, explores how to build a visible and values-led presence that earns trust and opens opportunities aligned with your mission. She will share how to express your individuality with confidence, communicate your purpose clearly and develop a reputation that goes beyond profit – one that creates lasting impact and inspires others to act.

VIDEOBLOGGING • BRAND VISIBILITY
In my master session, I will give you some really simple tips and tools on how you can step forward with more confidence in an authentic way to get your brand seen and heard.
From Stockholm to LA, New York and London, I have worked with global agencies and renowned Hollywood blockbuster films; ranging from Kellogg’s and Volvo adverts to the James Bond and Harry Potter films.
I teach at universities and hold corporate workshops, I’m a keynote speaker and panelist at business conferences and podcasts in the UK and internationally – but nothing gives me more joy than seeing a woman stepping into her own power and start sharing her expertise!
Welcome!
ROSE BUNDOCK | Marketing Strategist

AI • MARKETING • BRAND STRATEGY
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start connecting with your audience in ways that drive growth and make a real difference for your brand visibility, then my session will help you home in on your most powerful path forward.
I’ve helped big pharma like Merck and Teva Pharmaceuticals turn insights into engagement strategy in a content marketing career spanning 25 years.
I believe in a world where women experience better health because their needs are truly understood, that’s why I created Femsights – to help women’s health companies connect with their customers and patients on a deeper level, driving real growth while closing the gender health gap.
Welcome!
NINA KHOO | NLP Master,
Highly Sensitive Leadership Coach
PURPOSE DRIVEN WOMEN LEADERS
When sensitive women embrace their way of being, they win and the World wins.
Did you know 20-30% of the population has the naturally occurring Highly Sensitive trait? That’s approximately 1 in 4 of us.
Also known as High Sensory Intelligence or Environmental Sensitivity, being a Highly Sensitive Person is not a weakness or something to be overcome or hidden.
It’s actually your greatest leadership asset.
In my master session I’ll be sharing how you are wired differently as a highly sensitive person,
why this means the mainstream models and generic advice don’t work for you and what you actually need to succeed.
Welcome!

SUSTAINABILITY • FUNDING • COMMUNITY IMPACT
Leading with Purpose and Integrity
It can feel hard working on a purposeful project; people don’t understand you, investors only see to profit, funding is pulled.
I’m here to help you define and support your purposeful journey into the future – so you can fulfil your dream goal.
I’m a circular textile expert, ethical swimwear designer, a mentor and activist.
After 25 years working in the unsustainable fashion industry, I decided to be part of the solution instead of the problem and I founded RubyMoon, an ethical swimwear design brand. My next project is RubyLab, the first low-impact technology to recycle nylon waste into new textiles.
Welcome!
HELEN GUINNESS | Leadership Development Specialist
GENDER EQUALITY • LEADERSHIP
For too long, women have been excluded from leadership and decision-making spaces—conditioned to shrink themselves, suppress ambitions, and accept less than they deserve. This lack of women’s voices at the table has shaped organisations, economies, and societies that fail to serve us all.
As a Leadership Development Specialist and transformational coach with 40 years of experience, I help women step into leadership roles and claim their rightful place in positions of power and influence. Women’s leadership transforms systems, creates equality, and ensures future generations inherit a world where women’s voices drive change.
Using my experience, humour and empathy, I’ll help you to transform your limiting beliefs and become the leader you were always meant to be—powerful, and unapologetically driving changes for the betterment of us all.
Welcome!
ELLA ORR | Personal Branding Expert
MUCH MORE SOCIAL
SOCIAL MEDIA • PERSONAL BRANDING
Would you like to be thought of as the ‘go-to’ professional for your industry?
Your personal brand is one of the most powerful ways to attract your ideal client. Use your uniqueness and individuality to show how you have the solution to their problem and you can provide the transformation they are seeking.
This is important even if you’re working within a bigger company and organisation!
But it can be hard to step forward – as yourself.
I’ll share tips that will help you to work out how you want to be known and seen through your social media presence, and inspire you to take your personal brand to the next level.
Welcome!
ABI MELLOR | MD Creative Agency
MD MOREVER, LEADING LIGHTS PODCAST
From Inspiration to Impact: Finding Your Voice and Telling Your Story
As women shaping the future, our voices are our most powerful tools. Yet, too often, we hold them back.
Through her work with the UK’s best-loved charities and as host of the podcast, Leading Lights, Abi Mellor has learned that the stories we dare to share have the power to inspire others, connect with others, shift perspectives and create lasting change.
In this empowering session, Abi shares her own journey from behind-the-scenes storyteller to leader. Drawing on the pivotal moments that defined her path, Abi will share how her own personal stories have inspired her to leadership and shaped her career.
This session is your invitation to speak up and own your narrative — even when your story includes challenges or pain. Because when women share their stories, we shape the future together.
Welcome!

CARIN EKLUND | Women Coaching
MAGIC MITTENS
SELF CONFIDENCE • AUTHENTICITY
I weave together energetic healing and coaching, as I’ve found a combination of the two is most efficient and beneficial.
In moments when our willpower for some reason is weakened or exhausted, we often berate ourselves, swear to do better tomorrow, or perhaps decide to scale back our dreams and goals to a more sensible level. At worst, we give up on ourselves altogether.
What if there is a gentler way to navigate the resistance? What if willpower isn’t the only tool we have at our disposal?
In my master session, I will show you a different approach to working with the resistance you encounter within yourself or in your world.
NATHALIE CORDELL | Psycho-Spiritual Coach
CONFIDENCE • AUTHENTICITY
I’m an accredited psycho-spiritual coach, writer and founder of Soul Seeds, a community for women in the messy middle of life.
After 20 years climbing the corporate ladder in pharma, I got tired of climbing and decided to see if I could fly instead.
I retrained as a coach, earning an MA in Psychosynthesis Leadership Coaching. Now I help other women discover who they really are and reclaim their authentic power.
My book Awakening the Sleeping Queen comes out in March 2026.
SARAH BUCHANAN-SMITH | Financial Advisor
WOMEN & WEALTH
Throughout history, women have been denied financial independence—excluded from earning, saving, and building wealth in their own right. This legacy of dependency has left generations of women, particularly in later life, facing financial insecurity and poverty.
I’m passionate about breaking these patterns. With over 25 years in financial services, I’m committed to empowering women to reclaim their financial freedom and step into futures defined by independence, not dependence.
Financial liberation isn’t just about money —it’s about equality, choice, and the power to shape your own life. Whether you’re navigating divorce, career transitions, or midlife reinvention, I help women build the confidence and clarity needed to take control of their future.
BY THE END OF THIS DAY...
you’ll walk away with a mind full of ideas, inspiration, recommendations and connections.
You’ll want to get into action, speak up and ensure you live and work to the fullest.
