"A standout moment was hearing from keynote speaker Angela Vassallo, whose message on turning experience into your greatest advantage was equal parts energising and grounding. Angela’s blend of humour, honesty, and hard won wisdom left the room buzzing. Her story of reinvention and resilience is a masterclass in what it means to lead when the odds aren’t evenly stacked."

OWN YOUR EDGE

Turn Lived Experience Into
Your Competitive Advantage

GOAL

Help leaders recognise the true value of what they already know and start using it as their greatest strategic advantage.

OVERVIEW

Most high-performing leaders have spent years building their knowledge, skills, qualifications, and capabilities, and they have learned to navigate pressure and develop resilience along the way. But the real skill is knowing how to leverage all of it in a deliberate and strategic way. Angela shows leaders how to trust what they already know, cut through overthinking, and make faster, more effective decisions. Own Your Edge Turn Lived Experience Into Your Competitive Advantage

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Leadership teams, executives, associations, and company events.

 

REINVENTION AND CHANGE

YOU ARE NOT BEHIND, YOU ARE BECOMING

Stop Waiting. Start Leading.

GOAL

Inspire women to stop underestimating everything they have already built and start leveraging it as the foundation for what comes next.

OVERVIEW

There comes a point where what once worked no longer fits. The role, the identity, and the success – none of it aligns with who you are becoming. And yet most women respond by starting over, leaving behind everything they have already lived, learned, and earned.

Angela shares her story of reinvention at 50, walking away from a successful business she built from the ground up and stepping boldly into what was next. It’s a masterclass on leadership and reinvention.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Women’s events, entrepreneurs, and personal growth audiences.

PERFORMANCE

PERFORM AT YOUR NEXT LEVEL

Leverage Your Experience

GOAL

Help leaders and high performers close the gap between what they know and how they perform.

OVERVIEW

High performers don’t struggle with effort; they struggle with execution. Despite their experience, capability, and track record, many find themselves stuck, overthinking, or operating below their potential. Angela shows leaders how to stop holding back, trust their instincts, and fully leverage their experience to perform at the level they’re truly capable of.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

Sales teams, startups, entrepreneurs, and professional groups.

This book certainly touched on most situations that I have encountered along my journey.

Angela Vassallo has captured the humour that is often present in stressful blended family situations, with empathy and useful guidance. I am not only a second wife/stepmother to my husband’s 4 children but also a step grandmother to their 10 children, all of whom are under the age of 7. I am also an ex-wife/ mother from my previous marriage and my husband and I also have a child together. Blending these families with HIS, MINE, and OURS was complicated and I am not sure I have come out the other side yet. This book certainly touched on most situations that I have encountered along my journey. When life gets complicated as it invariably does, I used to say “Welcome to my World” – Now I say “Welcome to my Village”!

I feel safe and comforted having her around as I grow old.

It is my absolute privilege to work, be associated, support many charities and share my working and everyday life with this remarkable women.
She holds true family values, is a devoted Mother, daughter, friend and wife, her loyalty is unquestionable. Her achievements are a result of damn hard work, study, discipline, determination and , tenacity and yet she is still able to take time out for those who need help and guidance. They say,’ don’t read a book by its cover’ in this case , this testimonial is not about the book she has actually written but the journey of her actual life. A girl brought up in a working class family, her father a real hero, a paramedic who risked his life for others and still does, her Mum a very attractive, humble, and high principled devoted mother and wife.
Angela was a great Athlete a champion sprinter, studied drama/ acting for years, public speaking, sales and marketing and worked with me on PR/ and charity events.
Now she is an author in her own life, a brilliant business consultant and a mentor to hundreds of women.
Angela’s beauty lies from the outside in, and you can be rest assured that she will never forget those who follow her or where she has come from. I feel safe and comforted having her around as I grow old, but feel so proud to watch her grow with her achievements as she blossoms.

I am now ready to change limiting beliefs and fears.

Thank you Angela so much for your course. How wonderful to have mentors and coaches such as you who have paved the way for other women to learn from and go through our transformation Journeys. The self acceptance lesson was particularly encouraging to me as a foundational stepping stone as I am now ready to change limiting beliefs and fears. This course is a lovely encouraging way to take those first steps out of the comfort zone and step forward with Direction and confidence.
