Donna Kennedy
Donna Kennedy is a best-selling author and inspirational speaker. In addition to this, she is the founder of the “Women’s Empowerment Summit”, which is a large in-person event, held twice a year, to help inspire and empower the women of Ireland.



Women's Empowerment Summit
The Summit is an embodiment of her passion and beliefs. It offers unique experiences compared to traditional business and networking events and is certainly not a solemn affair as you might experience at more conventional events, such as a day of silence punctuated by panel discussions. Kennedy’s summit instead comes alive with interactivity, vigour, personal authenticity, the sharing of impactful insights, and compelling storytelling.
"The Women's Empowerment Summit was an amazing experience for me. It did what it promised to deliver: inspire, motivate, connect and empower women in a beautiful way."
Active Engagement
Participants are not simply on the receiving end of lecture-style presentations on various subjects. They take an active role in each presentation, and through engaging in the processes that unfold throughout the day, they turn uncertainty into strength. They leave with significantly more understanding and confidence than they had when they first arrived.
Mutually Beneficial Relationships
Effective networking takes place, where attendees uncover ways to help each other with their work and ambitions. In addition to this, several long-lasting friendships have also begun there, making it an excellent event to meet like-minded people and develop mutually beneficial relationships.
"Fantastic day at the Women's Empowerment Summit! A great way to spend a day with hundreds of like-minded women. The calibre of speakers on the day was exceptional."
Attendees and Speakers
Donna is highly skilled at bringing together women from differing backgrounds, understanding that diversity contributes to the valuable layers of learning and growth. Her speakers are chosen with great regard for their life experience, and how their personal stories will resonate and inspire the attendees.



Changing Lives
Donna guides the event with an approach that is both tender and clear. Her driving motivation for the Summit is to create a thriving community for women, which can serve as a vehicle that doesn’t just change people’s lives. It significantly refines the process and methods of progression, as an ambitious woman in a complex modern world.
