Expansive Woman Training
You have big dreams. But also, big fears.
You've worked hard to get where you are. But somehow, you know there must be more.
Sometimes you feel an internal battle - the desire to grow and take on bigger, more challenging roles so you can make a tangible impact on the world vs. the belief that you're not quite good enough or even deserving of such a life and career.
So, you don't put forward that bold idea, apply for that new job, start that business, or ask for that raise.
Instead, you make yourself small. You contract into what feels safe.
When we are small and contractive, we deny our own brilliance and talents. And we deprive the rest of the world of those things too.
And that's a damn shame.
Because the world needs more of you, not less.
We need you to be big and expansive, not small and contractive.
And that's what you'll work on here at the Expansive Woman Project.
"There is so much (good, bad, ugly!) advice out there on how to be the best (woman) leader. I'd dabbled and learned things along the way, but working with Judy Sims and the Expansive Woman Project, I really honed in on expansive states of mine, and how to apply this knowledge on my own quest to be a better leader."

"Now, almost everything I do revolves around my core values, which has made me much more confident in the work I do, the relationships I hold and who I am to my own self."

What's it like to be an Expansive Woman?
You will be grounded in solid core values and purpose, yet open to new ideas, people, and situations. From this place, you will become hopeful, excited, and passionate about your life and career.
Rather than being influenced by externally determined rules about who and what you should be, you will experience a confidence that arises naturally as a result of being in alignment with your authentic self and who and what you choose to be.
You already have everything you need to be an expansive woman. Together, we’ll help you remember, rediscover, and reclaim her.
This is how we’re going to change the world.
One Expansive Woman at a time.
What our training alumni are saying:
Leigh Billinghurst
6-Week Expansive Transformation Participant
The Expansive Transformation course provided an opportunity to collaborate with a group of exceptionally talented women. We challenged each other and held one another accountable on this journey together. I walked away from the sessions with an understanding of my true core values, not ones externally imposed, ones that motivated me and were individual to my wants and desires. Recognizing my values and taking ownership of my success has given me more confidence when developing and driving key strategic decisions.
