« Les Speakeuses is an association focused on female mutual support, whether professionally or personally, in France and abroad », explains Christelle Katanga. The goal is to create a community where women can freely exchange, find support, and move forward together.
The project was born from a personal observation during her dance classes. « Women needed to come together, needed to talk, needed to support each other », recounts Christelle Katanga.
The community is open to all women aged 18 and over, with two types of members: the Speakeuses Family, who wish to create connections, and the Speakeuses Pro, who share their expertise through workshops and training sessions.
For Christelle Katanga, the challenge is also to combat isolation. « As women, we sometimes feel a bit isolated in our family life, in the routine of work, in the search for a career change », she explains. The network allows members to find a listening ear and benefit from the experiences of others.
Since 2024, the community has expanded to several countries and now has over a hundred members. « Today, the Speakeuses rise together by impacting themselves », asserts Christelle Katanga.
Through meetings, workshops, and collective projects, the association aims to demonstrate that sharing experiences can open up new possibilities. « If she can succeed, I can too », encourages Christelle Katanga.
