Workshop & Events

Our aim is to spark vulnerable conversations that normalise your experience, empower you with tools & strategies to cultivate confidence, and help you flourish in all areas of your life, career and business.

“I’d absolutely recommend attending, it’s been super informative, open & insightful.”

Alt Collective events are designed to connect and inspire women while supporting personal and professional growth.

Passionate about gender equality, our Jersey Female Career & Founder Stories and Real Talk workshops offer a supportive, relaxed and non-judgemental environment for women to discuss topics which are often not discussed and can hold us back from feeling fulfilled and achieving our potential.

There is so much strength in community and having the opportunity to have vulnerable conversations and hear wisdom from others who have had similar experiences.
