Courage is Built Here™ Leadership Workshops for Courageous Teams.
Leadership isn’t just about titles — it’s about how individuals show up, communicate, and navigate the hard and necessary conversations. Justine Froelker’s workshops help teams develop the skills, language, and courage to lead with clarity and connection.
With more than 25 years of experience in personal and professional development and mental health, Justine guides teams through real, practical work that creates lasting impact. Whether the goal is strengthening team dynamics, fostering a culture of trust, or improving communication and boundaries, these workshops provide the tools to lead with confidence and integrity.
Workshops are available as a half-day, full-day, or nearly any format needed to meet your team’s schedule. Each workshop is customized to meet each organization’s needs. Participants walk away with actionable strategies they can apply immediately — because real leadership is lived, not just learned.

From Justine: Bravely Putting New Skills to Practice.

“Leadership requires engaging with emotions in a healthy, grounded way. My workshops invite leaders to develop the skills to feel emotions without allowing the emotions to dictate reactions, create overwhelm, and own the room.”
FAQs: Workshops.
What is the difference between a workshop and a keynote presentation?
A workshop is an interactive, hands-on learning experience where Justine facilitates activities, small group discussions, and other exercises to develop specific skills. These sessions last several hours and are designed to provide practice on their new skills so they can be applied day to day in work and life.
Justine also offers keynote presentations, which are shorter messages typically delivered to a larger audience. Keynotes are intended to share insights, inspire attendees, and provide actionable takeaways — while workshops provide a forum to put new skills to practice. If you aren’t sure which offering is right for your group, send a message to info@justinefroelker.com to discuss further.
What topics are covered during one of Justine’s leadership development workshops?
