The Brilliance Summit 2025

Yesterday was truly remarkable. Attending an empowering, insightful and heartful women-led event was a transformative experience. Laughter, tears, and a wealth of knowledge filled the day. I decided to gift myself an away day to The Brilliance Summit as my personal development birthday treat! Which was brilliant! I feel energised, nourished, and ready to take on new challenges as I journey back.

Madeline McQueen, thank you for bringing your dream to life with your fantastic team
And crew.

The Brilliance Summit was… well… brilliant! I had the most incredible, affirming, uplifting day with my amazing friend and ex colleague Claire Knights who invited me along. It was exactly the type of day I needed and I could not be more grateful. The people I met, the things I learned and just the entire day was an absolute vibe.

Every single session was packed full of nuanced and practical actionable tips. How many of us can say you moved your body, belly laughed, cried and felt energised after a full day's conference?

Being at The Brilliance Summit felt like being members of a super powerful and inclusive club. It felt like this day just provided a massive recharge that we all felt we needed.

Thank you for supplying the energy to raise us up Madeline McQueen and team, and all the other fabulous ladies that we were so lucky to share this day with. Unforgettable.

This time last week I was as high as a kite from The Brilliance Summit created by the magnificent Madeline McQueen! High off the inspiring and amazing collective of women for a whole entire day!
After taking a long break from the world of level up events, this was exactly what I needed. A reminder of how important it is to be in spaces that truly embrace you and your BRILLIANCE!

What a wonderfully empowering day at The Brilliance Summit! We came together as strangers, we left as a sisterhood.

Lisa Farrell

Fantastic speakers and panelists and the perfect mix of practical takeaways and motivational talks. What did I want from the day? I wanted to pause, just for a day, and reflect on the last few years. I wanted to hear from other women about their challenges. I wanted to discuss the glass ceiling and the concrete one… and how we can work together to break them both.

And the best bit, I got to share it with my lovely talented friend and ex-colleague Leanne Stockford. So a big thank you to Lisa Farrell for sharing in your feed that day and to Madeline McQueen for putting on a phenomenal event!

Inspiring, exhilarating, celebratory! Just some of the words that spring to mind when I reflect on yesterday’s The Brilliance Summit.
The brainchild of the one and only Madeline McQueen, it was a truly unforgettable day and was hosted by the awesome Denise Nurse!



Where else would the TBS2024Tribe be able to experience a healthy dose of affirmation, knowledge sharing, challenge, support, love and still have a little time to “shake two foot” to tunes from the likes of Chaka Khan, Sounds of Blackness and M-Beat!

I had the privilege of attending one of the most memorable conferences, the Brilliance Summit. This conference offered an incredible opportunity to connect with inspiring individuals and foster a sense of fun and camaraderie. The openness and vulnerability shared by participants created an atmosphere of empowerment, reflection, and growth.

The authenticity and generosity displayed by everyone, emphasising mutual support, were truly remarkable. By the time we were networking at 6 pm, it felt like we had known each other for years, despite meeting just that morning.

Lisa Browne

Attending The Brilliance Summit and feeling the incredible energy brought by the inspiring stories and experiences of the amazing women is unforgettable.

An energetic day organised by Madeline McQueen with phenomenal women leaders, who shared their wisdom, knowledge, lived and shared experiences. Each topic of the agenda transformative and delivered by an amazing team of panelists, thank you.
It’s imperative you invest in yourself and others with learning and development activities-attend, engage, participate, network, follow up. Sometimes, all it takes, is that one activity that can shift your mindset.
