On 19 December, we lost our mum, Kaye Avery, the founder of Career EQ.
For those of you who knew her, you will know she was direct, warm, and completely committed to helping people find work that mattered to them. She had a way of cutting through the noise to what was real.
Mum was the centre of our family. Her impact on our lives was deep and full of purpose. Losing her has been the hardest thing we have been through.
She built CareerEQ around a belief she carried her whole career: that every person has a contribution they were born to make, and that a career is not just a job but a journey that encompasses life, learning and work. She spent more than two decades helping thousands of people find the clarity to move forward.
Her work continues through us, Kristy, Kathryn, Jessica and Jonathon, and through the wonderful team of coaches she built at CareerEQ.
We have something to share with you this week. For now, we just want to say: we are here, and we are carrying this forward.
The Avery family
