Allyship starts with conversation—and what better way to break barriers than by breaking bread together? Knead for Allyship is a hands-on sourdough class designed to spark meaningful dialogue about how we can all be better allies in the workplace and beyond. Whether you’re new to the concept or looking to deepen your understanding, this event offers an engaging space to learn, share, and grow.

Guiding the breadmaking experience will be the team from Wild Sourdough, known for their expertise in crafting delicious, naturally fermented sourdough. As you learn to create your own starter and shape your dough, you’ll also engage in a thought-provoking conversation on allyship.

Adding depth to the conversation is Matthew Brierley, a dedicated advocate for gender equality and a member of NAWO’s WA Committee (and former board member). With over 20 years of experience in asset and operations management, Matthew has championed inclusivity in male-dominated industries, co-chaired gender equality initiatives, and authored Please Don’t Tell Me to Man Up, a book challenging perspectives on gender equality.

At the end of the session, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of allyship, fresh dough ready to bake, and the tools—both literal and figurative—to continue the journey.

We’re inviting women to bring at least one male colleague or friend to join this intimate gathering, where baking and discussion blend seamlessly. This is a safe and supportive space where every voice is valued, and genuine conversations can flourish. No experience with allyship—or sourdough!—is needed.

Seats are limited—secure your spot today and bring an ally with you!
