Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021

TAKING INSPIRED ACTION TO SHIFT YOUR BUSINESS FROM SURVIVING TO THRIVING,
NO MATTER WHAT 2021 THROWS AT US.


This is for you if you're a business owner who is hungry to reignite your passion and design a Covid-resilient business for the year ahead.

April 26th-30th 2021   |  Thirteen Inspirational Experts   |  Create Breakthroughs In Your Business

Interactive Conference, With 12 LIVE InsPirational Speakers,
Two breakthrough-creating Masterminding Sessions,
And A 90-Minute 2021 Inspired Action Planning Workshop.


When Covid threw away the rule book, the way we were used to doing things in our business no longer worked. And we've coped - we've pivoted, we've pushed on through the pain, we've done our best to make sure our business survives.


But that's all short-term coping strategies. They're not sustainable for another year. We need to be doing something very different.


It's time to shift from surviving to thriving!


It's time to reconnect with your passion for your business and making a bigger difference,
and to create an action plan that inspires you to make it Covid-resilient for 2021!


What Is Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021?


The Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 Online Conference is all about helping you to discover what is working - and how to let go of what isn't - with twelve international experts in growing your business to the next level in 2021, whatever life throws at us.


Connect   |   Inspire   |   Thrive


Connect

No one changes the world on their own. And even introverts are missing their tribe in these work-from-home times!


The Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 conference is designed to help you reconnect with old friends and to make new ones, so you feel fully supported on your journey through 2021.

Inspire

It's time to rewrite the rules. And how to do that is exactly what the twelve speakers will be sharing.


For many of them, the Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 conference is the first time they'll have publicly shared what 2020 has taught them, so you'll be getting cutting edge strategies and insights to inspire your next steps for success.

Thrive

Move beyond 'coping strategies' and 'trial and error' to discover what really works, in these uncertain times.


Discover how to avoid the mistakes that have been derailing businesses and reconnect with that sense of excitement for what you do, possibly even reinventing your work for 2021!

This is not yet another death-by-Zoom snooze-fest. It's not a talking-shop. And it's a pitch-free zone.


You're going to learn innovative solutions - sometimes counter-intuitive - to make your business Covid-resilient in 2021.


You'll be working each day on your Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 Inspired Action Plan, in bite-sized chunks, and creating breakthroughs and seeing results by the end of the conference.


Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 could be your secret superpower for the year ahead, no matter what life throws at us!

In addition to the main conference, there are three extra events to support you:

2 Masterminding Sessions


These sixty-minute sessions will break you out into small groups to have a ten-minute hot seat to work on your business, based on what you have discovered during the conference.


Plus you'll get a workbook to help you to make the most from those sessions - you might be surprised the laser impact ten minutes with fellow inspired business owners can have!

Virtual Networking Evening

Wednesday evening is a virtual networking event, where you can get to know others at the conference, to make new friends, to connect with old ones, and to feel part of a tribe of Passionate World Changers.


You might even find some Joint Venture partners for exciting projects in 2021!

Workshop: Pulling Together Your Inpsired Action Plan

The conference wraps up with a sixty-minute interactive workshop, hosted by Clare Josa, to celebrate your lightbulb moments from the week and to help you to pull together your Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 Inspired Action Plan. 


You'll discover how to spot the actions that will create breakthroughs, instead of busyness [Hint: it's not what you might think!] and you'll learn the self-mentoring questions Clare uses with her 1:1 clients to help you make sure you don't get in your own way, and to make even tricky decisions easier.

Virtual Goodie Bag!

We can't be together face-to-face this year. But each speaker is popping a gift into a Virtual Goodie Bag for you. And whist it's unlikely to be chocolate, it will definitely hold the potential to change your life.


We can't wait to share your Virtual Goodie Bag with you!


How The Conference Helps You To Create Change!



We've all been to events where we finish up with reams of notes that we never look at again, feeling guilty about the missed opportunities, because life gets in the way, once the conference is over.


So Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 has been specially designed to make taking action easy for you!


The sessions are live interviews, rather than pre-recorded presentations, so you can get answers to your questions via the chat, there & then. They're with industry experts, sharing assumption-smashing strategies to create genuine breakthroughs for you, fast.


They will change the way you think about leading your business.




Here Are Some Of The Changes You Could Be Making

Getting inspired clarity on what you want your business to look like in 2021 and exactly how to take it there

Stop wasting time on the stuff that isn't having impact, setting yourself free from busyness & overwhelm

Putting an end to shouting to be heard by becoming a content alchemist, magnetising your dream clients

Setting yourself free from Imposter Syndrome & other secret self-imposed glass ceilings on your impact & income

Making your business more resilient, so that no matter what 2021 throws at us, you're feeling confident and strong

Getting ready to scale your business, so you help more people and make more income, with less 'you-time'



You'll Be Taking Inspired Action, Even Before The End Of Each Interview!


The sessions will be packed with actionable insights you can put into practice by the end of each day, including the latest trends for 2021, which the speakers haven't been talking about elsewhere.


At the end of each interview, there is a 15-minute implementation session, where you get to pull out the most important aspects of what you have learned from that session to create your Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 Action Plan. Plus our #DoOneThingNow competition means you'll already be taking the first steps on your action plan as we move through the week - and seeing results.


There will be two small-group masterminding sessions, where you can connect with fellow attendees and get instant feedback and support for the actions you feel inspired to take. And you've got a 60-minute Inspired Action Plan workshop to wrap up the week.


Plus you've got a delegate-only Facebook group (running 2 weeks before & 4 weeks afterwards) where you can share inspiration, bounce ideas, get answers to your questions, and connect with like-minded business owners across the globe. It's your chance to find your 2021 dream team!



Who Is The Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 Conference For?


It's for business owners who have earned their stripes, rather than those just setting out.


It doesn't matter if it still feels like feast-and-famine. What counts is that you have had the experience of making it through those early stages and you're getting ready to step up and lead in your field, even if the thought of that still makes you flinch!


You're on a mission to make a bigger difference in the world.


And you're ready to take inspired action to make sure you get to ROCK 2021!

Schedule


All sessions are available to watch live and a replay will be up within 24 hours - you get a full year's access to these. 


We're doing our best to avoid the tricky school run time and to minimise evening time, so the conference can be family-friendly.


And there's plenty of time between each session to start taking your inspired action - and to keep running your business, so you don't have to take the full week off!



The Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 conference runs from 26th April to 30th April 2021. There will be 3 sessions each day, starting at 09:00 UK time.






Hosted By Clare Josa


A personal message from Clare:

Clare Josa - Presenter at the Lockdown Leadership Conference

You know that thing where you get a burst of energy that gives you a crazy idea... So you chat with some people you trust and they tell you it's not bonkers, it's brilliant...

Then you put together your dream-wish-list of people you would LOVE to be involved - and each and every one of them says YES! And all of that happens super-fast?

Well, the baby that was born from this inspiration is the Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 Conference.

I could see from my tribe that so many of us have been on our knees over the past few months and we desperately needed something to help us to reset our businesses and energy levels, for 2021.

I'm so excited to get to share this with you and it's my biggest dream that you'll finish the week feeling inspired, already taking action and seeing results, and shifting the way you look at running a business you love again, whatever 2021 holds in store for us.

Don't Know Clare Josa Yet?


Clare Josa is the author of eight books, including Dare To Dream Bigger, and she speaks internationally about how to change the world by changing yourself. She leads the Passionate World Changers Club and, following a career in engineering and market research, has spent the past 17 years helping business leaders to clear out their secret, self-imposed glass ceilings, so they can make an even bigger difference in the world.

Connect | Inspire | Thrive 2021 is about taking inspired action - and seeing results, fast! It's not just about sharing great ideas and the latest proven strategies...

FAQs


Got questions? Please contact Clare's team here.

How do I access the live interviews?

These will run via Zoom and you'll get the link on the morning that the conference starts.


This means you can join us from wherever you are in the world.


Plus it allows us to be highly interactive, with chat Q&A during the sessions, polls, and even the chance to 'hop up on stage' and join us on video during some elements of the event.


All of the interviews and the Inspired Action Plan workshop are also being recorded, so you can watch them again.


You get no-rush access to these replays for 12 months.

I don't have enough time...

We get it! We're all feeling time-poor and most of us are overwhelmed.


But here's the thing: by investing 30-minute chunks of your time over the week of the conference, you'll discover how to have more impact and get better results, by doing less!


The few hours you invest in this event will repay themselves over and over and over in 2021.


You're going to discover strategies that allow you to scale your business, so it carries on helping people and generating revenue for you, even if (don't tell anyone!) you take the day off!


Plus you'll be setting yourself free from the hamster wheel of hustle and content-creation-for-the-sake-of-it, so that you need to spend less time in your business, to get even better results.

Why isn't this event free?

It costs about £5,000 to stage an event of this quality. Plus each of the speakers is investing hours of their time to help you.


That's why so many free events like this are actually a thinly veiled pitch-fest.


And they make us more likely to just consume the content, without applying it, so it doesn't make much difference. Although they can be great fun, unless they create change in our business, they can literally be a waste of our time.


That's not what we want for you.


Instead, by paying a small ticket fee (it really is small, if you consider the potential revenue that even just one idea from this event could generate for you in 2021), it means we get to make this a pitch-free zone.


Plus the whole event is specially designed to get you taking action, right there and then, so you're already seeing results (and making a profit on your ticket fee), even by the end of the week.

How do I watch the replays?

The replays will be live within 24 hours of each interview.


They will be inside Clare Josa's Training Vault - you'll have full access to them in there.


It's also the easiest way to find out how to get in touch with the speakers and to make the most of your virtual goodie bag!


The replays are available to you for 12 months, so there's no rush on watching them.

How will it help my business?

Here's the kind of stuff we're getting ready to help you with!


  • Getting inspired clarity on what you want your business to look like in 2021 and exactly how to take it there

  • Stop wasting time on the stuff that isn't having impact, setting yourself free from busyness & overwhelm

  • Putting an end to shouting to be heard by becoming a content alchemist, magnetising your dream clients

  • Setting yourself free from Imposter Syndrome & other secret self-imposed glass ceilings on your impact & income

  • Making your business more resilient, so that no matter what 2021 throws at us, you're feeling confident and strong

  • Getting ready to scale your business, so you help more people and make more income, with less 'you-time'

And that's just the tip of the iceberg!


Are you joining us?

Why should I make this commitment?

So many of us feel like we've been holding our breath for the past seven months. We've panicked, pivoted and lost our passion for what we're doing.


2021 looks like it's going to bring similar challenges to 2020. And if we keep doing what we've been doing, we're no longer going to get the same results - because the environment in which we're doing those things has changed.


If we keep on with the same-old-same-old, we'll risk getting worse results, because the world is changing.


So it's time for a reset - just a few hours out of your schedule to discover what's most likely to work for you in 2021, rather than hoping what you're already doing will work.


Our big dream behind creating this event for you is that you feel inspired to take massive action to create breakthroughs, fast - without the hustle.


We want to help you to fall in love with your business again, to reconnect with your passion for the difference you're here to make, and to shortcut the next stage of your journey.


Are you in?
