Why This Session & Why Now?

With rising polarization, institutional pressure, and global unrest accelerating, regulated voices are more essential than ever. Leadership isn’t about dominance – it’s about coherence, compassion, and nervous system capacity. This workshop helps women speak and lead from that place…without betraying their boundaries, values, or wellbeing.

In a world that asks women to stay silent, erase their truth, or carry the weight of keeping the peace, leadership and self-advocacy can feel like a double bind. Especially in moments of stress, conflict, or power imbalance, many women find their voices falter…not due to lack of courage, but due to a dysregulated nervous system.

That’s why I created Truth to Power – a three-hour, breath-led communication and leadership workshop designed to help women speak with clarity, calm, and conviction – especially when it matters most.
This isn’t a mindset seminar or soft-skills training. It’s a nervous system-first experience rooted in science-backed polyvagal theory, breathwork, and trauma-informed leadership practice. We explore the physiology of stress, communication breakdown, and power dynamics – and give participants the tools to regulate, reflect, and respond with truth…from a place of nervous system regulation.

Who is this for?

Women professionals navigating leadership, change, advocacy, or workplace tension- Team members involved in advocacy, communications, or client-facing work- Anyone who shuts down, explodes, or over-explains when stress hits – and is ready for a better way- Equity-seeking voices who are tired of shrinking, but unsure how to speak safely and powerfully

About the Facilitator: Chelsea Dubeau

I’m a communications strategist, breathwork guide, and serving member of the Canadian Armed Forces. I’ve spent years navigating high-stakes environments where saying the hard thing, especially within power imbalances, felt impossible. For me, and so many women like me, this is personal. Truth to Power is the workshop I wish I’d had. For years, I thought I was weak for freezing or fawning in moments that mattered. I now understand that these are physiological responses, not character flaws. My work isn’t therapy. It’s rooted in science-backed principles, the ancient wisdom of the breath and body, and the visibility wound shared by so many women who have been systemically silenced or marginalized.
