Throwing Caution to the Wind: Stories of the
daring, doubt and doing it anyway
Some of the best stories start with a decision that didn't make sense on paper: the leap taken anyway, the risk that paid off (or didn't), the moment caution got left behind entirely. This month, we're bringing together six women from six decades who know what it's like to choose the harder, riskier, more alive option. Come hear what happens when caution loses. Join us for a night of real stories, real risks, and the kind of energy that might just talk you into your own leap.
This month's storytellers
Our lineup is being carefully curated — this month's storytellers will be announced soon. Watch this space.
What to expect
Six real women, six real stories
One storyteller from each decade — 20s through 70s+ — sharing unscripted personal stories on a single theme.
2 hours, with time to mingle
Doors open 6:30 PM · Show runs 7:00–9:00 PM at Verity Lane, Canberra. 20min interval – time to connect, if you feel like it.
Laughs, tears, and recognition
Not a panel. Not a lecture. Stories that make a room full of strangers feel connected.
For women of all ages
Our audiences range from 20s to 70s+. Come alone, come with friends — you’ll leave feeling both seen and connected.
What people are saying
I didn’t know what to expect — I left feeling like I’d been seen. One of the best nights I’ve had in years.

Genuinely funny, genuinely moving. The stories stayed with me for weeks. Brought three friends to the next one.

I’ve been three times and cried every single one. In the best possible way. This show is unlike anything else.
