About us
### 🌿 What We’re About – Walk With Wisdom
💛 “Walk With Wisdom is about starting your day connected — combining movement, meaningful conversation, and shared experience to nurture success in business, health, and life.” — Founded by Michael Hunt, Nikki Ind, Tony Crossin & Paul Francis
In the pursuit of success, we often crave guidance, support, and genuine connection. Walk With Wisdom offers a simple yet powerful way to find all three — blending the clarity of a morning walk with the insights of experienced coaches, mentors, and peers.
Each Friday morning, we meet at 7:30 am under the covered area opposite the Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club. Our walk follows the river along Gympie Terrace to Williams Street (near the caravan park) and back. Somewhere along the way, or at the end of the walk, one of our members shares a short 10-minute talk — a spark of wisdom from their own expertise or lived experience.
Whether you’re a professional wanting to grow your business, someone looking to boost wellbeing, or simply curious about personal development, you’re warmly invited to join us.
### 💼 Business Wisdom
Success in business is more than profit — it’s purpose, clarity, and connection. Our community shares practical strategies, stories, and mindset shifts to help navigate challenges, nurture relationships, and unlock potential.
### 🧘 Physical Wellbeing
Walking is more than exercise — it’s medicine for the mind. Each session invites fresh air, movement, and inspiration, supporting creativity, energy, and balance.
### 💬 Mental Health & Mindfulness
We value open, honest conversation. Walk With Wisdom offers a supportive space for self-reflection, stress relief, and resilience — guided by those who understand the importance of emotional wellbeing.
### 🤝 Building Meaningful Connections
The magic happens in conversation. Our walks bring together a diverse mix of people — entrepreneurs, professionals, and lifelong learners — who enjoy sharing ideas and supporting one another. It’s where business meets heart. 💫

Learning Through the Johari Window – Expanding Your Self-Awareness
Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club, 142 Gympie Terrace, Noosaville, QL, AUTHIS WEEKS TOPIC: Learning Through the Johari Window – Expanding Your Self-Awareness
Speaker: Neil McDonald – True North DevelopmentWhat if the way we grow isn’t about doing more… but seeing more?
In this talk, Neil introduces the Johari Window – a simple but powerful model used in psychology and leadership to understand how we learn and evolve.
It’s built on a simple idea – growth comes from two things:
• what we’re willing to share
• what we’re willing to hear.Research shows true self-awareness is actually quite rare, and that honest feedback from others plays a big role in how we grow. We often do parts of this already… we just don’t realise it.
This session helps make sense of it, and shows how to move beyond your “known self” into your unknown – where real growth starts to happen.
Neil will touch on:
• the four areas of the Johari Window
• where blind spots can hold us back
• how to gently stretch beyond familiar patterns.It’s simple, practical, and something you can start to notice straight away. For anyone interested in personal growth – in work, relationships, or simply understanding yourself more deeply.
