Events

At Women Can International Inc we have the ICAN philosophy at play.

Our motto is all about self-empowerment, about being able to choose our own pathway.

Each year we choose a new meaning for the acronym, as this keeps us fresh in our vision.

In 2009, our ICAN motto was Inspiration, Contribution, Achievement and Networking.

In 2010, our ICAN Motto stands for Influence, Choices, Attitude and Nurture.

We will be hosting one event each quarter based on the motto as follows:

Influence

‘Influencing Women’s Futures’ - 6 March 2010

On International Women’s Day (8 March 2010), all over the world, we celebrate, that each and every one of us is part of something bigger. Learning from the generations of women that have gone before us and consciously understanding that the changes we make in our own lives can, in fact, be a significant influence to others around us.

Princesses with Passion in Petticoats & Pearls

Women ‘CAN’ do anything and reflecting this, although a couple of days before we are supporting WID 2010 and its theme of equality and the right to vote, with a focus on the responsibility we have to future generations.

A serious theme with a playful approach, join us for a day of inspirational speakers, creative expression, fun, frivolity & a wealth of influential women who are guaranteed to positively rock your world!

“How do I connect?” information will also be provided about how to get plugged into the WCI network alongside the wide range of women’s’ groups & activities available in WA.

Choices

‘The Power of Choice’ – 5 June 2010

The people that surround you are the bridges to opportunities & satisfaction in your life.

So let’s take a step back to consider the quality and quantity of your connections & how your intentions can change your world?

Women of today have many more choices & options open to them than previous generations, but it can be a tremendous challenge attempting to be it all, do it all yourself and stay in touch with everyone who is important and not so important to you. Yes,you can do anything, but can you really do everything & how successfully can you remain connected to everyone? At this event WCI guides you in:

 Managing the expectations of yourself and others

 Deciding where to best focus your attention, energies and time

 Recognising the value of both giving AND receiving

 An introductory discussion on how your life & relationships can become better interconnected by using online technology so together women can be more powerful and influential than ever before.

“Where do I fit and where do the people in my life fit?”  You will also be given guidance on discovering your inner strengths to determine which aspects of the game of life you are best suited to playing.  Alternatively there is an option to consider which type of friend you might be and a simple guidance system to determine how you can free up your most valuable resource… your time & attention!

Attitude

‘Your Attitude to Living & Confidently Achieving your Dreams’ – 3-5 September, 2010

So you can do anything, but not everything, so what some-things do you wish to create and prioritise within your life in the next year?  This weekend escape gives you a relaxed and open space to let your dreams take flight and a playful nurturing environment with enthusiastic people where ideas can be fertilised and are safe to blossom.

“What differences can I make in my life and when do I intend to make them?”

The purpose of this shared 2 day retreat into Wonderland is to support women in their next steps toward creating an integrated, abundant and contented life. One that is congruent with who you feel you really are on the inside with the expression of that individuality on the outside.

Nurture

‘Nurturing the Collective Wisdom of Women’ – 4 December 2010

So you have experienced something during your life’s journey, but what does it all mean?… Nothing perhaps, or maybe everything!  Through open discussion we extract the gold from each of our participant’s life’s experiences and adversities.  Through stories, exercises, imagery, we create a nurturing space to debate and validate our insights and facilitate opportunities for mutual support and collaboration

“How does being a woman influence your values, goals, your rhythm, and energy levels?

A co-created event where the collective knowledge, skills and understanding from our network comes to fruition, spanning the realms of our physical, mental, spiritual and emotional well-being.
