Client vulnerability Workshop. Sponsored by EBI Portfolios.
Client vulnerability: A relational issue not just a compliance tick box
Many financial professionals are confident with the technical side of advice.
But when it comes to emotional conversations - especially those involving vulnerability - things can feel uncertain, even overwhelming.
Join us for a one day workshop, generously sponsored by EBI Portfolios, facilitated by Emma Boardwell, Founder of Emotional Finance; and co-hosted by Debbie Holmes.
Hosted at the Forge, a beautiful and unique meeting space in Bristol, this one-day, small-group workshop is designed to help you build the relational intelligence needed to:
Spot signs of vulnerability with confidence
Build deeper trust with your clients
Navigate emotional conversations with empathy and grounded presence
Through a mix of guided reflection, facilitated dialogue, live demonstration, and supported role play, you'll leave with practical tools, deeper insight, and a renewed sense of clarity and confidence.
Only 12 places available
Full Price: £250/ Early Bird & Self-Funded: £200 (book by 5th September)
Location: The Forge, Bristol, BS1 5BD
This isn’t your typical day of slides and lectures (though you will earn 6 hours of structured CPD).
It’s hands-on, reflective, and intentionally small in scale. You’ll be part of a focused, energising group of peers, learning through live demonstrations, guided exercises, structured reflection and facilitated dialogue.
T&Cs can be found here
