A community where ambitious, purpose-driven professionals reset, reconnect, and rise—together.
What Is Confidence Lab?
Confidence Lab organizes monthly gatherings for people doing meaningful work—entrepreneurs, creatives, nonprofit leaders, corporate change-makers, and public servants—who want to lead with clarity, courage, and authenticity.
Each monthly session is focused on one powerful theme—like boundaries, financial clarity, self-trust, or voice—and features a guest speaker, guided reflection, and thoughtful discussion.
Some sessions are held virtually, some are in-person gatherings. Each session blends personal reflection, professional insight, and community connection to help you build a more confident, grounded approach to your work and life.
These monthly gatherings are key, because confidence isn’t just something you have—it’s something you practice. Expect guided exercises, powerful stories, practical tools, and real conversations. Leave feeling clearer, more capable, and more connected than ever.

Rise Again: Confidence in the Comeback
August 14 | 12:00–1:00 PM ET | Virtual
What happens when your first try doesn’t go as planned?
Success is rarely guaranteed. And while confidence is essential, it doesn’t always lead to a win, at least not the first time. Join Emily Quick Schriver, CEO of The Matriots, an Ohio-based, values-driven nonprofit committed to advancing women’s equal participation in all aspects of political life, for a conversation about confidence, resilience, and the bravery that is needed to keep going.

Confidence Lab Membership
Bring Your Whole Self Into Your Work—Whatever That Work May Be
The work you do—whether it’s leading a team, running a business, advocating for change, or launching something new—demands confidence. But business as usual can chip away at our humanity, making it harder to show up fully, speak with clarity, and lead in alignment with our values.
Confidence Lab Membership is designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, social changemakers, and even those running for office—anyone who wants to lead with authenticity and impact in the spaces that matter most to them.
Who This is For
This membership is designed for people who:
- Want to bring their humanity into their work—whether that’s in boardrooms, campaign trails, community spaces, or creative projects.
- Know that 2025 will be a pivotal year and want to be ready to step up, speak up, and take action when it matters most.
- Feel like business as usual can strip away our values—and are determined to resist that by showing up as their full, confident selves.
- Want practical, ongoing support to find their voice, take up space, and create meaningful change.
2025 Membership
2025 Membership includes free tickets to all Confidence Lab monthly events through April 2026.
