ABOUT IGNITE23

IGNITE = To excite feelings or passions. This is EXACTLY what occurred within me at IGNITE. From the minute you walk into the room not only will you be graced with the thick presence of a room full of powerful women but you are reminded that that power is within yourself - you just need to wake it up. The IGNITE conference will inspire you to step into your powerful self!

rachel - LSKD

When Cherie announced the IGNITE Conference in 2022, our team jumped at the opportunity, following on from our energetic and inspiring coaching from Cherie throughout 2022. We were not disappointed. The day was full of incredible female leadership, networking and empowerment. Lifting each other up and filling our own cups. Looking forward to seeing what’s ahead for IGNITE in 2023.
