- **Event Description**: The Authority Shift: A Curated Author Conversation

Most women think writing a book is about pages, publishers, and finding the perfect time to start.

But authorship is rarely about timing. It’s about identity.

This month’s Dames Happier Hour is a curated, guided author conversation for women who know their voice carries weight, and are beginning to sense that a book may be the next evolution of their leadership.

This isn’t about writing tactics or publishing hype. It’s about the deeper shift that happens when women stop waiting for permission and claim authority through their ideas, experience, and perspective.

You’ll hear real, unfiltered stories from women at different stages of the author journey, not the polished highlight reel, but the truth. The doubts. The decisions. The internal reckoning. And the authority that comes from choosing to be seen.

This is not a traditional panel. It’s a facilitated conversation with space for reflection, insight, and a short Q&amp;A, designed to help you understand whether authorship is calling you and what that call is really asking for.

A book is not just a product. It’s a leadership move.

When approached with clarity and intention, authorship can amplify visibility, sharpen positioning, and open doors in business that are often inaccessible through marketing alone.

In This Curated, Guided Conversation, We’ll Explore

What actually shifts when a woman becomes an author, and why that shift changes how she is perceived in business rooms long before the book is ever marketed.

Rather than focusing on tactics, this experience explores the deeper layers of authorship, including:
Identity
Visibility
Authority
Message clarity
Leadership presence

Often before we have language for it.

This conversation invites you to consider authorship not as a someday project, but as a strategic expression of leadership, one that reflects what you already know, teach, and embody.

You’ll Walk Away With:

1️⃣ How authorship actually increases authority and changes how you are perceived in business rooms, even before you market a single page.
2️⃣ The hidden “identity shift” behind becoming an author, and what women often have to face internally to finish.
3️⃣ How to tell if you are ready to write, based on patterns in your expertise, your message, and what your audience keeps asking you for.
4️⃣ The three paths to publishing and visibility (collaboration book, self-publishing, hybrid or traditional) and how to choose the right one without getting stuck.
5️⃣ A clarity prompt you can use immediately to pinpoint the book you are meant to write, plus how to turn that idea into a next step instead of a someday dream.
