Gold Coast Inspired Minds Lunch

In our industry, being driven often means being flat-out busy. We constantly juggle roles – professional, leader, partner, and parent. But what's the real cost of always being 'on'?

The hidden toll on our mental health and family life is what we call the 'burden of busyness.' We believe you can be a powerhouse in this industry without sacrificing your well-being.

Join us for an Inspired Minds Lunch on Friday, 21 November, where two successful female leaders will share their honest experiences and the game-changing strategies that allowed them to move beyond surviving to truly thriving while managing it all.

Our speakers will discuss:

• The relationship between busyness and mental health.

• The sacrifices made and how to manage them.

• Actionable tips for juggling the many hats you wear.

• How to turn a demanding job into a fulfilling and sustainable career.
