Speaking · Sororities and Alumnae Chapters

A keynote for the sister the whole chapter leans on.

Chapter programming, regional conference workshops and national convention keynotes. Canetha Amour-Porter speaks to the woman who has been carrying the chapter, the family and the career, and calling it normal.

IBefore you book anyone

Every chapter has a woman like this.

She is the one you already thought of when you read that line. The one who says yes before you finish asking.

She runs the program, chairs the committee, texts the reminders, covers the shortfall out of her own pocket and never mentions it. In her career she is doing the same thing, at a higher altitude, with more at stake. Your chapter functions because she is willing to be depleted.

Most programming thanks her. Almost none of it asks her a real question.

You have carried this chapter, your household and your career. Sisterhood was never supposed to be one more thing you hold up alone.

IIThe talks

Four talks, one throughline.

Every talk is rewritten for your room. A chapter meeting, a regional conference workshop and a national convention stage each carry this differently, and the talk says so in their language.

01

The Glue Woman™

Chapter programming · regional conference · national convention

She is the one everybody calls. The one who remembers the birthdays, holds the budget and answers the group chat at midnight. What it costs to be her, and what it takes to put some of it down.

02

You have been holding the chapter together too

Chapter presidents · program chairs · executive boards

For the women who carry the line. Service is sacred and it is also a second full-time job, and nobody has asked what it is taking out of you.

03

Caring is not carrying

Boundaries · sisterhood · alumnae chapters

Boundaries for women who were raised to believe that saying no is the same as abandoning your sisters.

04

Holistic wealth

Financial wellness · leadership · professional development

The Amour Method™. Mental, physical, spiritual, relational and financial, and why succeeding in one while empty in the rest is not success.

Formats run from a single chapter program to a conference workshop track, with participant workbooks and The Glue Woman™ Assessment included for every attendee. Sister chapters book in clusters, and dates fill earliest around conference season.

IIIWhat changes

What your sisters walk out with.

Recognition

Your members stop performing for the length of the talk. For many of them it is the first time all year that a room full of sisters saw the whole picture and not the highlight reel.

Language

She leaves with words for something she has carried silently and could not name. Chapter sisters say it back to each other afterward, which is where a chapter culture actually changes.

One thing she can do

Not a list, and not another committee. One specific practice, and the reason it is the right one for where she actually is.

A way to keep going

The Glue Woman™ Assessment names which pattern she carries and what to do next, at no cost to her or to the chapter.

IVWhy her

This is not borrowed material.

Most speakers brought into a chapter give a good word. Canetha gives a framework she built, tested on herself first, and has been running for twelve years.

She lived it

She was the woman who held everything together until it cost her. The work began there, not in a library.

She built the framework

The Amour Method™ and its five pillars of holistic wealth: mental, physical, spiritual, relational and financial. Her own intellectual property, not a licensed curriculum.

She built the diagnostic

The Glue Woman™ Assessment names which of six patterns a woman carries and which of five stages she is in. Your attendees can take it the same day, at no cost.

Named an award winner

Winner of the 2025 Emerging Business Award from NAWBO Greater Detroit, the National Association of Women Business Owners.

She wrote the books

Four titles, including The Glue Woman™, with a workbook library women work through afterward.

She built the room, and institutions use it

Founder of the Amour Women Work Community in Troy, Michigan, where she hosts Inforum’s “Her Whole Self” Infinity Group on the first Tuesday of every month. She is not only speaking about community. She built one and runs it.

A limited number of dates each year are reserved for Schools, Churches, and Nonprofit Organizations.

From a client who booked her
“Canetha’s impact went far beyond a single demographic, she connected powerfully with our entire room, including our non-profit clients and leadership teams. She delivered clear, highly achievable strategies that our attendees were able to immediately put into action to drive fast, tangible results.”
Marc D. Alexander
President and Chief Executive Officer, LiteRaise
