WHAT?
Rise is a women's empowerment event that sees phenomenal women share their stories. To speak, express and be their truth. To explain, not only the challenges they have been through, but how they have overcome them. Rise is a place of connection, love, sisterhood and inspiration. At a time where the world feels more unstable than ever, it is vital that women come together and realise just how phenomenal they are.
WHO?
Rise is for all women, of every age, race and belief. It is for women who feel lost in their own lives. Who struggle to know their truth worth. Who sense that they aren't quite living their best lives but don't know how to turn things around. Rise if for women who seek to make real connections with other women and come together in strength and love.
WHY?
The #metoo and #timesup movements were the catalysts that started helping women to rise and gain the equality that has been long overdue. But...
This time of rising has triggered many fears of not being good enough and having nothing special to offer for many women, and this breaks my heart. It is time for women to see how just how incredible they are AS they are!
When we stop tearing ourselves and each other down, we can come together in sisterhood to help each other rise

Firstly, let me introduce myself- I’m Chrissy 36 years old, wife and mum of 2 beautiful children.
In the last 7 years I’ve had health challenges which have dramatically changed my life. In 2023 I decided I needed to find a career I could fit around my children, home life and my health issues and Avon seemed to tick all the boxes, so I decided to take the plunge and start my own career with Avon.
When I joined I was mentally struggling with life and needed something to give me a confidence boost and self-love! After researching Avon and its incredible journey over 138 years. I quickly realised this could potentially be a really good decision for me! The empowerment for woman and the charity work they commit too was something I was very passionate about.
I would love to share the profound effect a career with Avon has had on my life and me as a person and share my journey with you all

Kate Bliss* is a psychotherapist, writer and champion for sexual and relationship freedom. Her talk is about 'Becoming an Empowered Sexual Woman'.
Kate is currently writing a memoir that charts her journey from shy girl to naïve young woman through several sexual assaults to a 56 year old wild sexual adventurer!
On this journey, Kate has challenged cultural conventions around monogamy and what it means to be a sexual woman. It has been a process of reclaiming her sexual power from the men who stole it; a process of discovering her true desires and developing her capacity to ask for what she wants. She has discovered the healing power of internal consent. She has come to feel a deep reverence for her sacred sexuality. Kate is proud to be a sexual woman. She is no longer ashamed to want sex, to have sex and enjoy sex (and sometimes not want sex at all).
In her talk, Kate invites you to consider what it means to be an empowered sexual woman, whether you have many sexual partners, one or none.
Kate lives in Norwich with her cat and an abundance of houseplants, books and fairy lights. She enjoys spending time with lovers and friends, pottering around at home and relaxing in her own company.
*Kate is currently transitioning from the surname Manley to Bliss.

Throughout her life she has felt drawn to older women and the wisdom they hold. She has witnessed how women’s voices are often not heard and do not count and how much more difficult it is for older women, post menopause. Now she is a 64 year old post menopausal wise women and is on a mission to ensure that the wisdom of the wise woman is heard. She feels passionately that all women’s voices must rise together, so we can create the more beautiful world that is waiting to be born.
Her talk entitled “Bridging the Gap”, explores the importance of the relationship between young women and wise old women. Examining the roles of “keepers of the old stories” and “seers of the future”. We have been divided for too long and we have much to learn from each other and to share. It is time for us to work together.
