What’s unusual about this photo? Not that I’m traveling to Melbourne for work … but that I’m wearing my yoga gear. Working with an amazing bunch of women today around Authenticity as Women Leaders. What’s more authentic than being with each other in our wholeness and diving deep … and doing it all in active wear? Blessed. Thanks 😊

A pretty average photo, but taken with bucket loads of excitement. Today I start working with my second amazing bunch of senior women in leadership on a transformative, connecting, and wise 12 month journey. Super excited to work with 7-Eleven. Welcome to your ‘Wisdom Tribe’ 😊

When you're beyond excited about seeing the seed of an idea come to life, and you can't wait for the coming together of amazing humans.

I'm setting up for my first 'Wisdom Tribe' gathering - an inperson 12month program for women in leadership. A unique program that co-creates a space for vulnerability, growth and development.

I'm very grateful, and I've got the super awesome feels about this journey we're about to embark upon.

It's Women's Health Week this week, and Jean Hailes for Women's Health are promoting some fab things around our and . It's a great reminder : are you looking after you?

And on a similar note, have you heard about our 'Wisdom Tribes'. A group of women in leadership journeying together over 12 months to co-create a sharing, connecting, validating space for deepening individual and collective growth.

Do You Want Something More as a Female Leader?

wisdom : ability to discern inner qualities and relationships; a wise attitude, belief or course of action; the teachings of the ancient wise ones
tribe : a group of persons having a common character, occupation, or interest; a natural group

Have you been looking for your ‘Wisdom Tribe’? Do you want a safe space to connect with women in leadership to talk about the things we don’t usually talk about, but that impact us as women? Are you looking for a place to be, to learn, to support, to be supported, and to be validated? What would it feel like to share and connect with other women in leadership, in a small intimate group that meets monthly, creating space and time to come together for each others mutual growth?

I’ve had this idea brewing for quite some time now. I’ve previously been waiting for ’the right moment’, ’the right partner in crime’, or ’permission’ to do this … but I’ve reached a stage in my life where I’m saying “If not now, when?”. So I'm embracing the uncertainty, stepping into my vulnerability and hoping to be of service in a very unique way.

What I am wanting to create is :
* a small intimate cohort of women in leadership
* who meet once a month
* who journey together for 12 months
* and who get to co-create a safe and confidential space for sharing and wisdom

At our first ‘Wisdom Tribe’ gathering we will agree on what we want to co-create, and we will agree on shared goals and outcomes, understanding that this will be an evolving and emerging space. As thought starters, we could dedicate each gathering to a specific topic; such as embracing vulnerability, celebrating our hearts, reclaiming our power, welcoming our hormones, expressing grief/loss, understanding trauma, navigating glass ceilings, building balance, bathing in self-compassion, unpacking relationships, working through over-caring/compassion fatigue/burnout, cultivating mental wellness, interweaving spirituality, intentional rest, exploring cultural influences, being curious about gender influences, and understanding what gets in our way.

Your investment for 12 months will be your time (2 hours per month - with no ‘homework’ in-between, unless you want to), and $3,000 + GST.

Are you taking of yourself? Or do you meet others needs before your own?

Do you in taking time and space, stepping back, and just taking a breath? Or do you rush from one task to the next, one meeting to another, one crisis to another?

Do you feel like you're about your day, your role and your purpose? Or do you feel like you're operating from automaticity and 'just getting through'?

How often do you as a leader in YOU? Wholeheartedly, unwavering, and unabashedly? How could you be different as a leader if you did?

What I notice in my clients, especially now, is those who are curious and take the time to understand their patterns and behaviours are more present moment aware, more attuned to what they want to change, and have a plan to enact this change ... which equates to and (and a lot less and ). And we all need that, right?

Stress is a fact of professional life, but extreme and unrelenting pressures can lead to the debilitating state we call burnout. Three symptoms characterize burnout: exhaustion; cynicism, or distancing oneself from work; and inefficacy, or feelings of incompetence and lack of achievement. Research h...
