SUPERPOWERS - FOR WOMEN OF COLOUR


Superpowers, a free online programme for women of colour. 13th May, 20th May, 17th June, 22nd July, 12th August & 23rd September

Superpowers is a transformational 6 month programme for Women of Colour in the Elect Her community with Andleen Razzaq. Andleen Razzaq is a Licensed Master NLP Coach and Certified Business Coach-Consultant, trainer and educator. She has worked internationally at a global and local level with charities, corporations and individuals to improve peak performance and self-empowerment.

Entering the political arena is daunting and brave, we want to do everything in our power to help you prepare for that moment.  Over 6 months, women who enrol onto this programme will join Andleen and the Elect Her team to explore leadership, values, optimising our mindset, using our cycle to serve us and discover unique ways to look after our mental health and wellbeing. 


We know that women from Black, Asian and Ethnic Minority backgrounds face additional barriers when getting involved in politics at the local level and seeking political office. This programme of work will be the start of deep and transformative inner work and will help you prepare for a life as a leader as well as ground you in your true essence. We will explore:

  • What are our values? Your top 3 values will act as an anchor for the rest of your life in all areas of your life

  • The Power of the Unconscious Mind - How does our brain filter information? Raising your confidence and knowing how to engage an audience

  • Leadership - Optimising performance, using mindset and emotional management and leading as women without compromise

  • The Powerhouse of the Womb - Using our feminine energy and natural cycles to lead in a masculine world

  • Managing Trauma - Women of Colour experience significantly more trauma (inherited generationally as well as current circumstances) then their white counterparts and yet the starting point is the same. How to overcome obstacles and deal with stress/overwhelm/ context based anxiety is paramount to their success.

We will also hold additional group coaching sessions, a safe space to work on whatever spills over from the training sessions and tackle issues that come up as and when. 

This programme is not intended to provide you with the practical information about how to move forward on your political journey. We have other training programmes for that. This is all about you, who you are and what you believe about yourself. When you know yourself, you can go for what you want with confidence and you will be much better equipped to take on the adventure of political office!


Registration for Superpowers has now closed. If you have applied, our team will contact you in the coming weeks to let you know if you have secured your place on the programme.


This is a free programme open to all Women of Colour in the Elect Her community. We do not want finances to be a barrier to this opportunity, so we work hard to ensure this programme is free to all from our community that want to access it. As mentioned above, there are limited spaces on this programme and we ask for a deep commitment from each person successful in their application that you fully participate and join every session.

Applications for Superpowers has now closed. Register your interest to find out when our next round of Superpowers will take place below.

We can’t wait to meet you, and join you on this special part of your journey to elected office. If you have any questions about Superpowers, please email Zainab: zainab@elect-her.org.uk
