A 4-week online retreat experience for bold entrepreneurs and business owners who are ready to increase their confidence and speak up for their business.

Is your business destined for more than you're currently experiencing?

Are you afraid to speak up for what you need, with clients or suppliers?

Do you worry that if you spoke up for your business you’d be judged - or lose opportunities that are important to you?

If you answered yes to one or more of the above, please know, my friend, you are not alone.

Because if you’re anything like me (or many of the extraordinary women in our community), my gut says the last few years left you in reaction mode instead of creation mode.

Let's face it: your business requires much of your attention and your expertise.

And because you're freaking superwoman (and because you also LOVE your business), you say: "Yes, I will work all hours of the day - and even in the middle of the night - to grow my business.”

But maybe - just throwing it out there - you've reached a point where you've forgotten about what you need.

And it's making you real b*tchy. And grumpy. You're in the grind.

It's time to shake sh*t up.

It's time to create some change for YOU.

Successfully creating change requires us to speak to ourselves with compassion and self-acceptance so that we believe, with every fiber of our being, that we can take back the role of leader in our business.

It's time to shake sh*t up

Step up Speak Up

It's time to shake sh*t up • Step up Speak Up •

And you, my friend, were born to lead. 

I suspect you know this, even if sometimes you forget it. (Even if you completely forgot it - just sayin’).

Think about it. You wouldn’t be where you are - as an entrepreneur, professional, or creative - if you weren’t already stepping into leadership.


I’m simply here to remind you that YOU are a leader. 

And leaders can do hard things.

They can say hard things.

They can feel hard things - and grow through them.

For leadership…it’s not only what you say or do with your voice. It’s also how you speak up for yourself. And for your business. It’s also how you speak to yourself. It’s how you move through what can feel like suffocating discomfort - even when (especially when) it would be easier to stay quiet and small (pitching for a podcast for visibility purposes?! Barf.).

The last few years or so likely saw you speaking up in and for your business by default rather than by design. 

But your business - and the world - needs you to speak up by design.

All. The. Time.

What is the expertise you want your business to be known for? 

How can your business serve your clients and the greater community?

What would it feel like if you could drop down from your head, back into your body, and trust yourself and your business - 100 percent, every single day?

And...what would it be like to have mentorship, from yours truly, and a small community of powerful business owner friends, guiding you forward to the YOU that's been there all along? 

It would be f*cking amazing…wouldn’t it?!

That’s why I hope you’ll join me for Step Up, Speak Up:

A 4-week online retreat experience for bold entrepreneurs and business owners who are ready to increase their confidence and speak up for their business.

“I joined in the sessions at first, not sure that what I wanted to say was worth saying out loud. I felt like I wasn’t worthy of having a voice to be heard by everyone, but this group gave me the confidence to believe that what I say matters and that I can also give that confidence to other women too. Speaking up is not only my right, it’s my duty.”

Tracey Quiring

Designed for women across industries and sectors who are growing their businesses their way. during our month together you will: 

  • Learn how to connect with your business - that’s right, you’ll learn how to speak regularly with your business to co-create magic.

  • Identify ONE key visibility area to work on, which will result in potential clients actually seeing you and your offerings

  • Practice speaking up for yourself and for your business, and realize that speaking up can be easy. A bit scary, yes. But also easy.

  • Receive support from fellow business owners and know that irrespective of what you’re navigating, you’re not alone. You can trust other women and truly embrace the mindset of abundance & support over competition.

  • Cultivate confidence from creating a new habit of speaking up - confidence you can transfer to owning your voice and activating your leadership in any area of your life moving forward. (Spoiler alert: speaking up is going to become addictive! You’re welcome.)

Through four midweek retreats together, you will join Amanda and a small group of women for a once-in-a-lifetime leadership (and soul) reboot as you make stepping up and speaking up for your business a lifelong habit.

The Step Up, Speak Up Schedule

  • Each Wednesday evening we will gather on Zoom from 7:00 - 9:00pm Central – SK time.

  • Every week, during our LIVE, virtual video sessions, you will have the chance to share what’s in your head and your heart. You will be met exactly where you’re at, by Amanda and by the sisters in our group.

  • You will build confidence - quickly - as you practice speaking up in our group and then speaking up for your business.

  • And you will leave our gatherings with a solid foundation to grow your business.

HERE’S OUR WEEK-TO-WEEK SCHEDULE

  • Week 1: A conversation with your business

    Have you ever checked in with your business, in terms of what it needs or how it can help you and your clients? It’s true: your business is its own entity and it’s flowing through you. In this session, we’ll learn how to speak with your business, and understand how co-creating is the path to financial flow, ease on the daily, and building teams that support your big vision (sounds dreamy, doesn’t it? It’s possible!)

  • Week 2: Step Up

    Where do you feel stuck in your business, in terms of putting your business out there? We will dive deep into the area of your business where you are staying quiet. Does the thought of making videos make you nauseous? Have you given upon writing regular newsletters to your community? We’ll look at what’s keeping you muted, release stories that are disconnecting you from your voice and power, and shift real and self-imposed barriers into possibilities. (While tissues aren’t mandatory, they are suggested.) We’ve got your back.

  • Week 3: Speak Up

    In our third session, we’ll reflect on how your speaking up and visibility efforts are going: what’s working, what’s not, and what you will do differently next time. We’ll celebrate your wins and support you to continue releasing self-doubt as you prepare to speak up again this week. (Again, baby steps forward - and outward.) You’ll receive support and feedback so you can continue speaking up on behalf of your business!

  • Week 4: Reflect & Refine

    Our final session will bring us full circle. You’ll refine your custom visibility plan so you can keep using it beyond our four-weeks - and explore how it will evolve moving forward. You’ll keep having conversations with your business. And you’ll walk away with soul sisters - conspiring for your success as you continue to step up and speak up for yourself and your business.

In order to get the most from this experience, you'll want to do your best to attend each session live.

Why?

Because it’s during our weekly retreats where you’ll be able to experience my personalized coaching and receive real-time support from your sisters. But if you do have to miss a session (oh, life), there will be a recording available for you to check out before the next session so you can get caught up.

About your host,

Amanda PErrot

As the founder of the Alcheme women’s empowerment platform, I show women how to listen to their inner voices, access their inner wisdom, and step into leadership in all areas of their lives. I am a speaker, entrepreneur, and lover of well-placed F-bombs.

Having journeyed from a career in corporate to entrepreneurship, I am passionate about activating women’s success because I had to learn from victim to victor in my own life — through many difficult conversations. I excel at asking soulful (and kind) questions, listening deeply, and genuinely championing other women. I show women how to shed their fear of being “too much” (or not enough!).

Through my leadership, my community members and clients create powerful, purpose-driven, joyful lives.

    “Before working with Amanda I had gone back into autopilot mode, survival mode. I wasn't being present and putting my energy into the work I love.

    My top achievement would be overcoming the fear of being me. Obviously not 100%, but I got over some pretty major hurdles. Fear of looking stupid, fear of not being accepted by women, fear of being myself in a public forum and a fear of being judged for being different. I have since put myself out there, and am living my life more authentically again and feel so much lighter because of it.

    I trusted Amanda enough to open up about my intuitive practice and she was amazing. She helped me with my confidence, and I have made sure to not let that practice drop off and allow myself to go into autopilot mode again. Trust her. She is honest with herself and with you.

    Depending on the reason for the resistance, it might not be the right timing. The group I was drawn to was an amazing fit and all of the women involved made real connections. I think we need more groups like this and people like Amanda to show us that we are all enough, all equal and amazing.“

  • Dana Zemluk

    “I knew I wanted to use my voice more but I didn’t even know what that meant. I thought Amanda would help me with my social anxiety and I would speak up more in day-to-day situations. Now, I know there is so much more to using my voice and speaking up than just being able to strike up a conversation with a stranger in a grocery store. Now I know how I want to use my voice on a bigger scale and even though it’s terrifying, I have so much more clarity and confidence!

    Step Up, Speak Up is a safe group of women who make you feel like you are part of something big. I have never felt so surrounded by support and love as in Amanda’s group. I am still surprised that everyone has the same insecurities no matter where they are in their journey - I don’t feel alone anymore.

    Amanda is so kind and she has such a talent for getting people to connect. While she definitely pushes you out of your comfort zone, she ensures you are okay with it. She always has your back. There is always something you can learn here!”

If you’ve stuck with me this far, I know you know it’s time to make a habit of speaking up - for yourself and for your business.

I’d love to help you get started - and give you access to an experience and a community that ensures you never stop!

Perhaps your journey to speaking up includes pitching yourself for podcasts or media interviews.

Maybe it’s a heart-centered, honest conversation with your partner on how you really need their support in this venture.

Perhaps you know deep down that you’re born to make an impact, and help change the lives of the people who used to be just like you (your clients?).

If you’ve put honoring your leadership and your voice at the bottom of a very long to-do list because of the discomfort you feel when you think about speaking up, but you know it’s time, join the Step Up, Speak Up experience!

A 4-week online retreat experience for bold entrepreneurs and business owners who are ready to increase their confidence and speak up for their business.
