Unmute: Own your unique strengths & story
A small-group cohort for women who are ready to step into their next professional chapter by honoring their lived experience, values, and voice — rather than squeezing themselves into someone else’s version of leadership.

Dates: March 11 and 18th
Time: 1-2 pm EST
Why is it so hard for women to speak up at work — even when we know exactly what we want to say?
Because we’ve been trained not to.
Trained to be likable.
Trained to be accommodating.
Trained to be “professional” instead of honest.
So we edit ourselves mid-sentence. We soften the edges. We swallow the thing that actually matters.
It’s not a confidence issue. It’s conditioning. And conditioning can be unlearned.
If you’ve spent years shrinking yourself professionally, your voice isn’t gone. It’s just been muted
This session is for you if:
You’re a professional woman ready for a new chapter — pivoting, exploring, or job seeking
You’ve achieved success and want to refresh your brand, sharpen your leadership, and step into more
You’re driven, organized and action-oriented — and filled with curiosity and ambition
Perhaps this sounds familiar:
You text an opinion to a friend but don’t say anything in the meeting.
You almost share an idea but stay silent.
The boundary you want to set gets pushed and pushed.
Reclaiming your voice isn’t about becoming louder.
It’s about becoming more honest — one sentence at a time.
Owning your narrative means you stop waiting for someone else to define you.
You decide what this season is about. You name what you’re good at. You claim what you want.
You choose intentionally instead of defaulting into the next “logical” step.
That’s exactly why we created Unmute.
Unmute is a small, high-touch cohort for women ready to stop squeezing themselves into someone else’s version of leadership.
With just 4–8 women, you’ll get real connection without overwhelm — and the structure to uncover your values, clarify your brand, and own your story.
What’s included:
-
Two 1-hour small group coaching sessions

Your choice of a 30-minute 1:1 with either of us
-
Session recordings

-
A shared Google Drive hub to keep everything organized
If you’re tired of being tired.
If you’re ready to say the thing.
If you know it’s time to decide what’s next — this is your room.

Danielle Hughes
As the Chief Personality Officer of More Than Words Marketing, Danielle Hughes helps individuals and institutions to develop their Genuine Personality Brand. This allows you to own and embody your message, feel comfortable expressing it and convey what makes you different from your competition so you can attract the right audience and repel the wrong one.
Danielle has worked with hundreds of people to develop their professional message, landing roles, promotions, clients, and speaking opportunities. On the corporate side she’s worked with companies like Google, PwC, eBay, Discovery Channel, Capital One, Gap, TD Bank, SEO, Columbia University and The Jed Foundation among others.
Often referred to as a magician with words, while she can’t pull a rabbit out of her hat, she can hone your brand message and deadlift you, but not at the same time. That’s just irresponsible. (note: Danielle is available for office party tricks and accepts payment in bottles of Bordeaux.)
