About the Event
Bravery has never been the problem. Women know how to start. They know how to push. They know how to survive uncertainty and stretch themselves beyond what feels comfortable. What’s harder, and far more interesting, is what comes next.
Ownership. Not permission. Not validation. Not waiting for the right moment or the right person to say you’re ready. Ownership of your value. Your money. Your voice. Your choices. Your direction.
Fortune Favours the Brave. Own It. is a half-day, in-person gathering for women who are done shrinking their power and are ready to hold it with intention. Designed to feel spacious, not rushed, intelligent, not performative, and practical, not theoretical, this is not a typical conference.
Attendees will leave speaking differently about their worth and their wealth, making decisions with more confidence and less second-guessing, and aligned between who they are and what they’re building.
Masterclass Speakers
Khensani Nobanda: The Nonconformist | Leader. Innovator.
Twice named Marketing Industry Leader of the Year, Nedbank Group Executive, and Harvard Business School alumna, Khensani has built one of South Africa’s most formidable careers by refusing to follow anyone else’s blueprint. Her session speaks to what it truly means to own your definition of success, lead without shrinking, and make nonconformity your greatest competitive advantage.
Rachel Kolisi: Falling Forward | Honest. Human.
Rachel brings emotional truth and public courage to the conversation. Her session explores growth, identity, and the quieter bravery required when life shifts, and you’re expected to perform through it. She speaks to what it means to own yourself beyond titles, expectations, and other people’s narratives.
Carla Venter: Money With Carla | Smart. Wealth.
Carla leads the Brave Wealth conversation with clarity and zero shame. She makes money make sense, without fear, guilt, or jargon. Her session covers ownership of:
● Your financial decisions
● Your habits and boundaries
● Long-term wealth creation
In-Conversation
Joining the masterclass speakers in a dynamic community conversation are Brave Collective founders Taryn Hunter Sharman, and Perri King, as well as Lihle Ngxokolo-Nqini, co-founder and Managing Director of MaXhosa Africa. These dynamic women will be joined by a carefully curated panel of guests. Together they will dive deep into the real-world topics, scenarios, and growth areas most pertinent to the women in the room.
