We work with driven business owners, emerging founders, professionals refining what they've built, and individuals rewriting their narrative - choosing growth, ownership, and aligned action over staying comfortable.

It's a relaxed, organic space to connect with like-minded people and network—genuinely talking, learning from each other, and connecting over shared interests. * **What to Expect** Casual Meetups☕: We gather semi-regularly at a local café to chat about everything from stepping outside your comfort zone to business ideas, creative projects, and building a life aligned with your purpose. It’s relaxed, easy, and welcoming—no need to have anything “figured out.” An Easy-Going Space: We keep things simple and low-pressure. Once everyone arrives, we ease in with some light conversation and naturally break into smaller groups. Networking: Feel free to introduce yourself or let people know what you're working on if you feel like it. And if anyone wants to quickly shout out what they’re working on or looking for before we settle in, go for it—it’s a great way to spark new conversations. * **Host Support** If you’d like a one-on-one chat with me about your business, just tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be floating around and happy to make time for you. **Quick note for the day:** Depending on the weather, we might go for a walk around Wattle Park. Just remember to wear comfy shoes :)

**Career Clarity: how to stop second-guessing and finally unlock the work you’re meant to do** Too many capable, high-performing professionals stay stuck, not because they lack talent, but because they’re caught in overthinking, self-doubt, and unclear direction. In this session, we’ll unpack how to gain real career clarity and turn self-awareness into decisions that actually move your career forward. What you’ll learn: ✨ Get unstuck fast by understanding why your career isn’t moving, and what actually fixes it ✨ Activate your Unfair Advantage by identifying the strengths and patterns that set you apart ✨ Craft a magnetic career message so employers immediately get your value ✨ Increase visibility without being louder through conversations & credibility, signalling ✨ Interview to land offers using psychology, story, and strategy A practical, no-BS roadmap to a career that fits your brain, your energy, and your ambition, and puts an end to the second-guessing. **Speaker** ✨ Anna Findlay is a career coach who helps ambitious but overlooked women step into $200K+ careers without pretending to be someone they’re not. A reformed corporate “failure,” Anna knows this journey firsthand. She spent years as a quiet achiever; capable, overworked, and stuck in roles that didn’t reflect her potential. By studying what actually builds dream careers (positioning, storytelling, and strengths-based personal branding). Anna was able to transform her own career. She went from a $60K role she hated to doubling her salary in under a year, doing work she loved (and then doubling it again), being headhunted for 4 of her last 5 roles, landing multiple offers without applying, and pivoting across 4 industries with no prior experience. Today, Anna runs Career AccelerateHER, a 90-day coaching program that helps high-potential women position their strengths, communicate their value, and get seen by the right decision-makers, so they can finally step into careers that match their capability, ambition, and worth. **Panelists** ✨ Viv Farrington - the Founder and Principal Consultant at Muse Digital, a people-first recruitment agency connecting Australia’s best product, design, and engineering talent with future-focused brands. Deeply embedded in the design and tech community, Viv is known for her integrity, market insight, and ability to match people and teams based on craft, culture, and long-term fit — not just CVs. ✨ Nabila Farhat is a Career Coach and former senior recruiter who helps high-performing professionals become First Choice Hires. Drawing on 10+ years in recruitment and a background in psychology, Nabila works with mid-to-senior leaders to sharpen their positioning, communicate their value, and land roles that reflect their true capability, influence, and earning potential.
