The Sanctuary

A moment to breathe

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is step away for a moment. EMpowered Live is a full, rich, immersive day - and that means it can also be a lot. The Sanctuary is here for when you need a moment to breathe.

Your quiet space

A private, comfortable room set aside exclusively for EMpowered Live delegates throughout the full conference day. Not a medical room - a calm space where you can step away, take a breath and come back when you're ready. There's a curated pamper kit waiting for you, too.

This space is for you if

  • You’re neurodivergent and need a quieter space to recharge
  • You've just been moved by a speaker and need a moment to process
  • You’re managing anxiety and need to step back from the crowd
  • You just want five minutes of quiet before the afternoon
  • You need to take a private call or feed a baby
  • You simply need a breath

You don't need a reason. The Sanctuary is there. Use it.

I wanted every woman who comes to EMpowered Live to feel completely at home - including the women who find big rooms and full days a lot to navigate.

The Sanctuary isn't an afterthought. It's part of how I've designed this event - because the most powerful spaces make room for every kind of woman.
