Close the Identity Gap

You’ve Built a Business That You Care About

You’ve grown. You’ve stretched. You’ve handled more than you ever imagined you would.

And now?

You can feel that another level is calling you.

And while that can feel uncomfortable, I know from experience that this calling comes from having outgrown the version of you who built this stage.

That’s evolution. And that is exciting (though it may not feel that way yet).

And if you’ve felt it lately, that subtle friction, that quiet dissatisfaction, that sense that you should feel more in control than you do…

That’s an identity shift waiting to happen. (I’ll say it again — that’s exciting!)

“The next level of your business requires a different version of you.”

The Close the Identity Gap Masterclass is not about giving you “10 steps to better leadership”.

It’s about the invisible gap between:

  1. The capable woman who built it all (but carries it all)
  2. And the calm, decisive, powerful and leveraged leader you’re ready to be

In this FREE LIVE online Masterclass, we’ll uncover:

  • Why you might still feel like the bottleneck (even though you’re experienced)
  • The subtle ways high-performing women stay over-responsible
  • The shift required to lead without carrying everything

Suzi Dafnis

Hi there. I’m Suzi Dafnis, CEO at HerBusiness. My BIG passion is helping women business owners to grow and scale their business, so that they can create their ideal lifestyle and make a difference in the world. Every day I am inspired by the more than 30,000 amazing women (and men!) in our community and I love finding the best education, mentors, and resources from around the globe, to help them get the skills, knowledge, and support they need to succeed. It’s been my privilege to lead HerBusiness (formerly The Australian Businesswomen’s Network) for the past 23 years (two+ decades – WOW!) because, whilst I’ve enjoyed success in business, I’ve also experienced the highs and the lows – sometimes you can feel on top of the world and in control and other times you can feel isolated, exhausted and stuck. What has made the biggest difference for me has always been having great people around me and having a lifelong commitment to learning. That’s why I am so passionate about the work we do here at HerBusiness – providing a Connection Network for women in business to get the mentors, contacts, referrals, knowledge, and skills they need to grow their confidence, make more money, build their businesses, expand their network and create the lives they love. My entrepreneurial journey started in the spare room of my Sydney apartment in 1994 when my business partner and I started a boutique events company that represented speakers and authors from the USA, here in Australia. Over the years I’ve grown multiple multi-million dollar businesses in the events, publishing and education niches – with teams in Australia, New Zealand, and the USA. Not everything has worked and there has been a degree of trial and error, and a lot of bumps in the road. But I have always had a strong commitment to always surrounding myself with great mentors and like-minded peers – a Connection Network that I can depend on and who can depend on me to be there for them too. I truly do what I love, every day.
