Networking & Keynote with Patricia Costantini
2026-05-05 18:00 - 19:30 | Alchemy CoWorking CLT, 2459 Wilkinson Blvd, Charlotte, NC, 28208, United States
Some of the most important conversations in our lives are also the ones we avoid.
Maybe you’ve held back from saying what you really mean because you didn’t want to create tension. Maybe you’ve stayed quiet, worried that honesty might come across the wrong way. Or maybe you’ve tried to speak up, but it didn’t land the way you hoped. This workshop is designed for anyone who wants to communicate more clearly, more confidently, and with more care – especially when it matters most.
Led by Patricia Costantini – a corporate professional, certified mentor, keynote speaker, and published author with over 20 years of experience across banking, real estate, sales, and corporate training – this keynote will blend real-world insight with practical tools you can use immediately. Known for her grounded and honest approach, Patricia helps people navigate difficult conversations, set healthy boundaries, and communicate in ways that strengthen, not strain, relationships.
Drawing from both her professional expertise and personal journey, Patricia brings a level of depth and authenticity that resonates. Her work is rooted in helping others speak with clarity, resolve conflict with intention, and build emotional resilience in both their personal and professional lives.
Together, we’ll explore how to:

Speak honestly while still being thoughtful and respectful.
Navigate difficult conversations without escalating conflict.
Give feedback in a way that builds people up instead of pushing them away.
Listen with intention, not just to respond.

By the end of the session, you’ll walk away with practical tools to:

Identify your communication blind spots.
Approach challenging conversations with a new perspective.
Share feedback more effectively at home and at work.
If you’ve ever thought, “I know what I want to say – I just don’t know how to say it,” this space is for you!
