Bring a different conversation about child-free workers to your audience.
CFW² offers speaking engagements for organizations, professional associations, conferences, leadership groups, and workplace events looking to broaden the conversation about work, equity, and inclusion.

The whole story of work, not just part of it
For too long, workplace conversations about caregiving, flexibility, and belonging have centred on parenting. Those conversations matter — but they are not the whole story.
Child-free workers are also navigating assumptions about their time, availability, ambition, responsibilities, choices, and value. CFW² helps organizations broaden the conversation and better understand the experiences that are often left out of workplace equity discussions.

The Connectors Podcast
In this conversation, CFW² founder Alysia Christiaen joins The Connectors to talk about what real workplace inclusivity looks like — and why child-free professionals are so often left out of it. A preview of the kind of candid, practical conversation CFW² brings to every speaking engagement.
Delivered in person or virtually
Speaking engagements can take the form of a keynote, seminar, facilitated discussion, panel appearance, or interview-style conversation — tailored to your audience and event.
What to Expect
The goal is to support a broader, more nuanced conversation about work, equity, and inclusion — one that reflects the full range of employees' lives and experiences. CFW² speaking engagements are designed to be:
Engaging and thought-provoking
Practical and accessible
Inclusive without being performative
Direct without being divisive
Relevant to today's workplace conversations
“YES, this was a great session. It was so lovely to hear others with similar thoughts to my own — thoughts that I've always felt uncomfortable expressing. The part that resonated most is why we as women are made to feel judged about our choice to not have children, or why we are asked the question as though it's everyone else's business why we've made that choice.”
