Boost your confidence and your project with other women entrepreneurs

BREATHE is a European project to strengthen female leadership, entrepreneurial skills and the emotional well-being.

Our objective is strengthen the ecosystem of female entrepreneurship in rural Europe, providing female entrepreneurs, professionals in transition and unemployed women with tools to develop their self-confidence, leadership and resilience. To this end, we have designed a training methodology which has helped women to overcome internal barriers, strengthen their confidence and find their path to entrepreneurial success and personal growth, thereby contributing to economic and social development in rural areas.

Testimonials

Learn, share and grow together

These are some of the testimonials shared by the participants after taking part in the different BREATHE activities.

It has really helped me to ground ideas that were very scattered, to build a network of proactive women, to draw inspiration from other projects and to gain momentum to relaunch my own with concrete steps.

It has been a gift. It has allowed me to stop and recalibrate the compass that guides my business decisions.

I've loved this module; super necessary to look after oneself always, but essential if we are our own business. Thank you very much!
