ENROLL TODAY
Welcome to the International Women Build Confidence Conference page. My name is Dr. Allana Da Graca and I am the Founder of Turning On the Lights Global Institute and the author of Tomorrow Can’t Wait. Did you know that a recent study showed that womenpreneurs and new business owners struggle with procrastination that stems from having the IMPOSTER SYNDROME?
The Harvard Business Review, reported that "Imposters’ suffer from chronic self-doubt and a sense of intellectual fraudulence that override any feelings of success or external proof of their competence."
Turning On the Lights Global Institute LLC., is proud to announce that we plan to dispel this syndrome by offering our participants practical skills to overcome this challenge! We will begin our #IWBCC pre-launch in October and kick-off this revised event in December.
We are excited that you will join us for this growing event. Get ready to step into massive action as a leader and entrepreneur. Gain excitement from our speakers, authors and experts as you say "I will upgrade my life," this year!
I would love for you to hear what others are saying about this transformative event. Watch this Youtube video:

Van Lai-DuMone
This inspiring talk is a call to action for each of us to follow our curiosities to create possibilities seen and unforeseeable. Van shares the story of how her mom and 19 other Vietnamese refugee women, with the help of a movie star - followed their curiosity to trail blaze what is now the $8.3 billion dollar manicure industry in the United States.
Janet Zaretsky
People who stand in their true power and know who they really are, get noticed and get ahead in the world while everyone else continues to wait for the "right" moment, while opportunities pass them by. After this interactive presentation you will know what to do to get noticed, get heard, get valued and get ahead in your career without compromising your values.
Dr. Robin Rosenberg
In this talk, I discuss what I’ve learned as a psychologist, and what the research says, about the emotional power that comes from being able to understand deeply someone’s lived experience. The ability to take another person’s perspective can transform information we “know” to information we “feel.” I discuss different types of empathy and their applications to inclusion work. I also talk about the role that virtual reality (VR) can play in conveying lived experience—its advantages and limitations.

Victoria Baylor
The year 2020 has hit many women in business like a rogue wave. For some they have been able to surf it while others have been overcome by the deluge. Despite the challenges that CO-VID and many other parameters have brought, there are many unprecedented and looming opportunities that lie on the horizon if you are positioned to take advantage of them.
Leah Marone
Multitasking helps us achieve more and therefore be more successful right? Wrong! Unfortunately, multitasking creates stress, negatively impacts our relationships, and encourages burnout. We are constantly stimulated and instantly gratified which leads to a decrease in our ability to focus and 'just be.'
Kendra Porter
