Networking with confidence, finding your tribe, and creating spaces where women genuinely belong — this episode is packed with energy, honesty and practical encouragement.
Nancy is joined by Michelle Theuma, Chair of Women in Enterprise and one of the driving forces behind Milton Keynes’ International Women’s Day celebrations. Michelle shares how meaningful networking is about connection over transactions, why supportive rooms matter, and how the right community can change your business journey and your confidence. She talks about building welcoming spaces for women, the power of collaboration over competition, and how Women in Enterprise has evolved into both a professional network and a powerful social support system.
They dive into the nerves many people feel before walking into a networking room, with reassuring advice on finding the right groups, letting go of the hard sell, and focusing instead on relationships, trust and shared experiences. If you’ve ever felt intimidated by networking, this will feel like a warm arm around the shoulder.
The conversation also explores identity, confidence and visibility as women move through different life stages, including how style, comfort and self-expression play a role in how we show up in business and in life. There’s an uplifting look at dressing for joy, body changes, and why feeling comfortable in your clothes can transform how you perform in professional spaces.
Michelle also reveals the story behind the growth of the local International Women’s Day event — from a small theatre gathering to a major, high-impact celebration supporting women’s causes, charities and female voices across the region. Expect inspiration, community spirit, and a reminder that taking time out to invest in yourself is not a luxury — it’s essential.
A motivating, feel-good episode for women in business, anyone feeling isolated at work, or those ready to step back into the room with confidence.
