Before you say yes,
does it still fit?
A question worth asking before the next yes.
Meet Amira
Amira Davis is an entrepreneur, leader, educator and speaker.
Her work brings together twenty-five years of corporate leadership and the harder education of rebuilding a life in the middle of one. Boundaries, emotional intelligence, identity, and the decisions women face when what used to work stops working.
She is not interested in telling women to do less. She is interested in what still fits.
SIGNATURE KEYNOTE
The Cost of the Automatic Yes
Capable people get handed more. It is meant as a compliment and it works like a tax.
This keynote is about the cost of the automatic yes, and what it does to leadership, to teams, and to the person carrying it. A boundary is not a refusal. It is a statement about what you can actually deliver, and it is a leadership skill long before it is a personal one.
In practicing some strategies that Amira gave me, and with weekly check-ins, in 10 months I went from being overworked and underpaid to setting healthy boundaries at work, requesting my worth without fear, negotiating with confidence, and landing a role as an Executive Director.

I am no longer a passive participant in my own life. I am the conscious guardian of my energy. I now know my worth, and I am deliberate about who I allow to interact with me, and how.
