Being a creative leader often means holding a lot — people, pressure, expectations, emotions, and ideas. And when difficult conversations come up? Many of us avoid them, over-explain, soften our boundaries, or say yes when we really mean no.

But bold conversations are part of good leadership. They help build trust, clarity, healthier working relationships, and stronger creative cultures.

This practical 2-hour workshop is for creative leaders* living and/or working in Plymouth wanting to approach difficult conversations with more confidence, clarity, and calm. Together we’ll explore the patterns that keep us stuck in avoidance or people-pleasing, alongside practical tools to help you communicate more honestly and effectively.

You’ll leave with:

• Tools for preparing for difficult conversations

• Better understanding of conflict, avoidance, and people-pleasing

• Techniques to stay calm and grounded under pressure

• More confidence in communicating boundaries, feedback, and needs

For creative leaders who want to lead with honesty, courage, and self-trust.

The workshop is led by Anna Croucher, Life Coach and Mindfulness Teacher - www.annacroucher.com
