Choose Freedom. Shape the Future.

Aspire, founded by Dr Sam Collins, exists for women who know they have a part to play in creating a better future.

Not because they have all the answers. Not because they have perfect lives. Not because they feel completely confident, ready or certain. But because they care.

They care about the future of business, equality, education, health, technology, communities and the wider world. They understand that the future is not something that simply happens to us. It is something we help create through the choices we make, the values we live by and the worlds we touch every day.

Choose Freedom is a global movement for women who want to use their freedom, voice, experience, wisdom and courage to make a meaningful contribution. If that sounds like you, welcome.

Pioneering the Future - A Leadership Retreat for Life, Work and World Change

A professional and personal development retreat for women who are ready to create a new chapter, launch something extraordinary or lead bold change in the systems shaping their lives, careers, organisations and the world.

An opportunity to bring your most ambitious dreams, pioneering ideas and innovative actions into focus. This might mean reinventing your health, life, career or business, transforming corporate culture, technology, education, poverty, health, climate solutions or something else, equally important to you.

Live and online events that ignite, support and celebrate personal, organisational and social change. Our events bring women together to change their own lives and the world around them.

The Dr Sam Collins Podcast

Women do not need more confidence. Women need more freedom.

Freedom to think differently. Freedom to speak honestly. Freedom to challenge expectations. Freedom to stop waiting until they feel completely ready. And freedom to make the contribution they are here to make.

The Dr Sam Collins Podcast is part of the Choose Freedom movement, a global conversation for women who care deeply about the future and know, perhaps quietly and perhaps fiercely, that they have a part to play in shaping it.

Drawing on more than 25 years of experience working with women across business, charities, education, law, finance, social impact and community leadership, Dr Sam Collins explores freedom, courage, purpose, contribution, leadership, reinvention and what becomes possible when women become more intentional about the future they are helping to create.

Sam challenges conventional thinking about success, confidence and change. She explores the lives, careers, choices and experiences of women who are shaping the worlds around them, often in ways that are far more significant than they realise.
