The Lionhearted Foundation

06/06/2026

There comes a point in life when success is no longer measured by what we achieve for ourselves, but by what we help create for others.

For me, that reflection has shaped much of the first half of this year.

Today I am excited to share the new direction of The Lionhearted Foundation and the launch of our refreshed website.

👉 Website - https://lnkd.in/gcytdXCn

Over the past few months I have spent a great deal of time reflecting on what Lionhearted is truly here to do and how we can create the greatest impact for women, girls and communities.

What emerged was a simple but powerful vision:

Building Confident Girls, Grounded Women and Lasting Impact.

Everything we do now sits within three connected pillars that support women through every stage of life.

🦁 Lioness

Building confident girls who know their strengths, find their voice and step into their future with courage.

Through our school programs, mentoring and leadership initiatives, we are helping the next generation develop confidence, self awareness, resilience and leadership skills.

👉 Lioness - https://lnkd.in/gTprZ4z2

🌿 Living

Supporting women to live with clarity, confidence and connection.

Through workshops, retreats, coaching, events, community gatherings and our Launchpad platform, we create spaces where women can learn, grow, connect and lead meaningful lives.

👉 Living - https://lnkd.in/gcpuRHir

🤍 Legacy

Creating lasting impact beyond ourselves.

This includes mentoring, scholarships, leadership pathways and initiatives such as our newly launched 500 Mums movement, created in collaboration with Katie Johnston to help build a home and educational sanctuary for vulnerable children in Uganda.

👉 Become one of our 500mums - https://lnkd.in/gTaUBSat

As I look back on my own journey, I realise that every meaningful chapter of my life has been shaped by women who believed in me, challenged me, supported me and walked beside me.

Because when women support women, extraordinary things become possible.

☕️☕️☕️This morning we gathered for our coffee conversations and it was pure magic sharing from the middle of our hearts and making beautiful connections

One of the things I have learned over the years is that meaningful change rarely happens in isolation.

It happens in conversations.

✅Over a coffee.
✅On a walk.
✅Around a table.
✅At a retreat.
Through shared stories, laughter, learning and connection.

That is exactly why Lionhearted exists.

We are building a community that supports women through every stage of life through our three pillars:

🦁 Lioness
Building confident girls who know their strengths, find their voice and step into their future with courage.

🌿 Living
Supporting women to live with clarity, confidence and connection through workshops, retreats, events and community.

🤍 Legacy
Creating lasting impact through mentoring, scholarships, leadership pathways and initiatives like our 500 Mums movement supporting vulnerable children in Uganda.

The latest edition of Lionhearted Magazine is now live.

This issue reflects the next chapter of the Lionhearted journey and the work we are building through our three pillars: Lioness, Living and Legacy.

Inside, you’ll find inspiring stories, practical insights, courageous conversations and remarkable women who are making a difference in their communities, businesses and families.

You will also be introduced to one of the most important initiatives we have undertaken through our Legacy pillar: 500 Mums, a collective effort to bring together 500 women to help build a school for vulnerable children in Uganda through our partnership with Home of Good Children.

As I reflected while writing this edition, leadership is not simply about achievement. It is about contribution. It is about using our experiences, strengths and opportunities to create a positive impact for others.

Thank you to our contributors, partners, supporters and the incredible Lionhearted community who continue to bring this vision to life. A special thanks to our editor

I hope you enjoy this edition and find something within its pages that inspires you to take the next step in your own journey.

Good morning beautiful women,

Over the past year, I have spent a great deal of time reflecting on what Lionhearted is truly here to do.

What has emerged is a simple but powerful vision:

Building Confident Girls, Grounded Women and Lasting Impact.

Everything we do now sits within three connected pillars that support women through every stage of life.

🦁 Lioness
Building confident girls who know their strengths, find their voice and step into their future with courage.

Through our Lioness school programs, we partner with primary and secondary schools to support confidence, leadership, emotional wellbeing, communication skills and future direction.

If you are a principal, teacher, parent, P&C member or school leader who would like to bring Lioness into your school community, we would love to hear from you.

These experiences are designed to create space to reflect, reconnect, grow and build meaningful friendships with extraordinary women.

❤️ Legacy
Creating lasting impact beyond ourselves.

This year we launched our 500 Mums initiative in partnership with the Home of Good Children in Uganda and It's Wild By Katie

Our goal is to bring together 500 women who believe every child deserves safety, education, belonging and hope.

By becoming one of our 500 Mums, you will help provide a future for vulnerable children and contribute to building a brighter tomorrow for the next generation.

Because true leadership is not measured by what we achieve for ourselves, but by what we leave behind.

If you need someone to walk beside you, not just professionally but personally too, this is exactly why I created private coaching.

Over 30 years across leadership, business, government, transformation and life itself has given me more than qualifications or experience. It has given me a toolkit of wisdom built through real moments, hard seasons, courageous decisions, success, heartbreak, resilience and growth.

My coaching is designed to support women side by side, every step of the way.

Together we navigate leadership, confidence, career direction, business, communication, wellbeing, purpose, boundaries, relationships and the realities of balancing life while still wanting more for yourself.

This is not about pretending to have it all together. It is about having a trusted space to reflect, reset, grow and move forward with clarity and courage.

🦁Practical support.
🦁Honest conversations.
🦁Real accountability.
🦁Lived experience.

You do not have to carry everything alone.
