Your Scarlet Ladies journey starts here.Suitable for everyone, all are welcome to speak out and share their views, or simply absorb the perspectives and wisdom of the room. Discuss events come in all shapes and sizes, from big panel discussions through to intimate coaching sessions and informal socials. Some Discuss events are open to non-members.
Open to non-members, our panel discussions bring together real women from different backgrounds, including professional therapists, sex workers and ‘ordinary’ women, to talk openly about key topics that affect women everywhere. Expect no-holds-barred conversations in an environment that is safe and supportive, as we lift the lid on different aspects of female sexuality to break down the barriers of stigma and shame.
Real inspiration from FIERCE women: in Scarlet Ladies’ answer to TED talks, our speakers join us to change attitudes and change lives by challenging prejudices around female sexuality head-on. Our FIERCE speakers inspire and educate, by sharing ideas, knowledge and experience on topics relating to female sexuality. Non-members are welcome.
Small and intimate, each monthly Scarlet Circle session is available exclusively to members, with opportunities for up to 4 ladies to seek support from the group each month and a further 6 to attend each session. Expect honest feedback; brainstorming, cheerleading and much-needed truth-telling. We suggest that you join us for a minimum of two consecutive monthly sessions, so that we can support each other with the best possible mutual understanding and advice.
Sharing confidences; sharing the journey and inviting other women like you to benefit from the lessons you’ve learned along the way: At Home With … members’ only events go right to the heart of what the Scarlet Ladies community is all about. Scarlet Ladies members take the floor for an intimate night of conversation; share stories; and take questions from the group about the experiences, expertise or events that have made her the FIERCE woman she is today.
Our FIERCE Talks change attitudes and change lives. Guided by our founding values of Freedom, Inspiration, Esteem, Respect, Courage and Enjoyment, FIERCE Talks challenge prejudices around female sexuality head-on. Every month we bring you a FIERCE woman to inspire and educate you by sharing her ideas, knowledge and experience on a topic relating to female sexuality. We believe in the power of talking to help women stand together to challenge negative attitudes, and transform the lives of women from all walks of life.
