Hi! I'm Marthe, and I'm hosting Merry & Unapologetic: a free Live Holiday Event by The Frontline Collective, on Wednesday 16 December 2026, 18:00-22:00 CET (live on Skool). The tagline: "From invisible to unstoppable: at work, at the holiday table and in your own head." This event is for women who are done shrinking. Female professionals, managers, entrepreneurs and academics who: → Are tired of being talked over in meetings, and of being called "difficult" when they push back → Want to claim their year-end wins without feeling like a fraud → Dread the holiday table more than their deadline calendar → Suspect the mental load is a structural problem sold to them as a personal failing → Want to be visible, paid and rested, without apologising for any of it This is an unapologetically progressive space. If your work is built around telling women to lean into traditional gender roles, "soften" to get ahead, or fix themselves into fitting the system, this is not your stage. But if your work helps women question the system, rewrite the rules, and take up space on their own terms? Read on. 👇 ═══════════════════════════════ ✦ WHO I'M LOOKING FOR ✦ ═══════════════════════════════ ✦ The Boundary Bosses Coaches, therapists and communicators who teach women to say no without guilt, handle the difficult-uncle moment at the holiday table, and stop being "the nice one" as a full-time job. Assertiveness, difficult conversations, people-pleasing recovery. ✦ The System-Questioners Experts on gender bias at work, the pay gap, the mental load, AI and algorithmic bias, and everything structurally unfair that gets sold to women as a personal problem. Bonus points if you can make data feel empowering instead of depressing. ✦ The Visibility & Money Strategists Personal branding, salary negotiation, self-promotion without the cringe, "visible and paid" energy. You help women claim what they've earned: at work, in business, and in their bank accounts. ✦ The Rest & Nervous System Keepers
