TESTIMONIALS
“This work brought immeasurable value to our management team. We were all concerned at first about venturing outside our comfort zone, but by going through this work with the guidance of The Daring Venture, we have strengthened our leadership capabilities a great deal; both individually and collectively. This shared experience helped us build a common language around courage and vulnerability, and it expanded our trust in each other.”

Laurie McGinnis
Director University of Minnesota
​This was a unique opportunity to really dig in and learn about myself, the way I lead and how I "show up" in all areas of life. So many a-ha's and realizations ( and a few tears too ) as I unpacked my stories and learned to come from a place of courage and really live into my values. What an incredible gift to peel back some layers and look at myself and actions from a different lens. I am so grateful for The Daring Venture and for the other leaders that were vulnerable and shared their stories. All amazing and beautiful women!"

This Program was so powerful! Having six months to focus on 'how we want to show up' was an effective way to reflect and then test and modify ideas. The program content and delivery made me see that even simple changes (which aren't so simple to do) can have a big impact. Making these small changes has been noticed by my co-workers and others and is helping me in all aspects of my life, work, home, and community. I would recommend the program to anyone who wants to live a more authentic (and brave) life!

"I am so grateful for the Daring Venture.  I’ve always struggled with self-worth and confidence and one of the most meaningful things I have taken away is seeing my value and appreciating who I am as a woman and as a leader. 

I have since landed a job at a firm I never would’ve felt comfortable applying for and have been able to share these concepts with other leaders in my organization."

"The experience for me connected me to get comfortable with who I am and stay true to my own values. Accept that I have baggage and that is just part of growth …falling down is ok. But we must keep getting into the ring and showing up for yourselves and others.

​I have developed comfort with not knowing the answers and recognizing that as long as I keep giving to others I’m doing my part. I also have new life long friends I really admire and trust… the network is amazing."


​Dick Nash
Coach, Strategic Leader, Business Advisor
"This was a really transformative experience that exceeded expectations. Each week, I approached sessions prepared to become a better leader within my organization, but over time it became clear that the practices we were learning were making a difference in my personal life as well. The tools we worked on have made me a better employee, partner, friend and person."
