Cindy Salmon wants to empower you! She wants you to kick-ass when
getting out of bed. She wants you to put all your energy into brushing your
teeth. Every moment of every day, you need to be eating the patriarchy and
smashing that glass ceiling (which is why she wears steel-capped boots)!
Welcome to Cindy’s very empowering seminar or, as she calls it,
salmon-ar. Are you ready to take complete control of your life? To combat all
of your fears? To change the world?
Cindy is full of jargon and tips on making life better. The comedy
comes from the broad American accent and the ridiculous bits of wisdom she
spouts. It’s entertaining for a while, but the jokes do get a little repetitive
as the show goes on.
In a week where real-life motivational speaker Tony Robbins showed
what dangerous delusions self-professed gurus can have, Empowerful feels a
little safe; Cindy Salmon is treading water and not swimming upstream as she’d
have you believe.
