D for Death: A Conversation We Need to Have

Loss. Grief. Change. Silence. Not the most comfortable topics, but that’s exactly why we need to talk about them.

Last week, we hosted D for Death - Navigating Loss in All Its Forms, an intimate in-person gathering where we explored loss in all its forms—not just the death of a loved one, but also the loss of relationships, identity, jobs, health, and even the person you once were.

Looking at this image, you might not expect D for Death to be a space where we explored loss. Yet, here the ones who agreed to be on camera are—faces lit up with joy, connection, and relief. Because when we open up about the hardest things, we also make room for lightness, for laughter, for letting go.

The impact was undeniable:

⭐ Rated 4.5 stars by attendees
⭐ 80% of participants said they left feeling lighter
⭐ Speakers, exercises, and discussions created space for real healing

💡 This wasn’t just a conversation. Through guided activities, shared stories, and expert-led discussions, attendees gained tools and insights to navigate loss and rebuild with resilience. They left feeling empowered and ready to take the next steps.

CASE STUDY

DHB Bank Sustainable Performance - Energy, Confidence & Voice at Work

This women-only session brought together two specialists from the Womanship professional network to explore what's really happening beneath the surface for women at work.

We ran an anonymous survey before and during the session — so participants could share what they were really experiencing without needing to say it out loud. The insights surfaced things that a standard feedback form would never capture, and informed the session content in real time.

Womanship opened the conversation: energy management, confidence, and the internal experiences that quietly shape workplace behaviour — human and relatable, framed around shared realities rather than individual struggles.

Lauren Valbert of Training 2.0 went deeper: imposter patterns, masking, and confidence identity — practical and psychological, grounded in her own body of work.

The Results

73% of participants found the session valuable or very valuable.

84% believe conversations like this contribute to sustainable performance at DHB Bank.

58% said the session significantly or somewhat increased their awareness that other women are carrying similar pressures

Every attendee said the session had a positive impact on their understanding of energy, confidence, and performance at work.

And the message that came back most clearly from participants to their leadership team?

"Generic treatment of all employees is not working."

Why Womanship

We are not a training company. We are a movement with nearly 500 women's worth of research behind us, a verified professional network around us, and years of direct community work that tells us exactly what women are carrying — and what they need to feel safe enough to share it.

Our approach is non-clinical, non-confrontational, and consistently described as one of the most useful sessions people have attended. We handle sensitive topics safely. We make people feel less alone.

And we leave organisations with real insight, not just a slide deck.

Let's talk about what your organisation needs.
