SUMMER AT THE POWER TABLE

Not Every Summer Changes You


Some summers are measured in holidays, photographs and weekends.

Others are measured in ideas that alter how you see the world, conversations that sharpen your thinking, books that stay with you long after the season has ended, and the people who challenge you to become more than you were.

That's what Summer at the Power Table is about.

Over eight weeks, we're creating a different kind of summer.


We'll examine the forces shaping women's lives through Summer Sessions. 

We'll explore what power looks like in everyday life as we journey together through Midsummer Continental Drift. 

We'll gather around books that deepen our understanding of ourselves and the world in the Book Club.

This isn't about keeping busy.

It's about becoming more thoughtful, more intentional, more present, and more powerful.

If you've been looking for a place where ideas matter, where conversation goes deeper than headlines, and where women are committed to growing together -

Pull up a chair.

Welcome to Summer at the Power Table.

The Summer Sessions:

Deconstructing Co-optation & Reclaiming Power

When I wrote The Women The Patriarchy Co-opted, the core premise was that performative submission is rarely an organic cultural shift; it is a calculated survival strategy within a failing system. We aren’t actually fascinated by the sourdough or the linen dresses of the trad-wives, nor are we afraid of the Bishops and the Broligarchs. We are transfixed because these women are a mirror reflecting our deepest anxieties about agency, power, and economic security under Tech-Feudalism.


We don't need more online bickering. We need a system diagnosis and a recovery strategy.

We will spend the next three months dissecting the mechanics of co-optation, deconstructing the systems that reward compliance, and mapping out what genuine institutional reclamation looks like.


We begin in July. The first two foundational sessions are entirely free to my community, but seats are limited to keep the dialogue sharp.

Deconstructing, Critiquing, Reclaiming

From Tradwifery to Tech-feudalism


What does it all mean and what do we do?

Secure your seat

Midsummer continental drift

Move differently. See differently. Become differently.

This summer, don't just follow my journey; join me on it.


As I travel from the American West to the East Coast and across to the United Kingdom, I'll be sharing the ideas, practices and moments that shape a powerful life.

Together, we'll explore what it means to move through the world with intention, discipline and presence.

This isn't about tourism. It's about transformation.


We'll talk about the connection between movement and freedom, body and discipline, travel and perspective, elegance and authority. Along the way, I'll take you behind the scenes of my work, the places I discover, the conversations that matter and the everyday practices that help us live power, not simply talk about it.


Your journey includes:

• Six weeks of exclusive travel reflections and behind-the-scenes access

• Weekly 30-minute live Zoom conversations about women, power, and the patriarchy, with real-time  HOT SEAT coaching

• Practical insights from Speaking with Authority and the lived practice of presence

• Private community discussions throughout the journey

• A front-row seat as we explore what an un-co-opted life looks like in motion


July 20 – August 28

Because sometimes the greatest journey isn't across continents.

It's into a larger version of yourself.


Your journey - $247

Let's go!

We're moving differently.

Across ideas.

Across countries.

Across old identities.

This summer, choose more than a holiday.

Choose a season that changes how you think, live and lead.
