What brings you joy in life?
For me (Anita), I enjoy feeling connected within my community, a feeling of purpose, and spending time with those who have similar values and alignment with me, including my most treasured loved ones – my family and friends.
Rachel and I recently attended a two-day conference for Tasmanian Women in Business at the Paranaple Convention Centre in Devonport.
We laughed, we cried, and we were inspired.
Our favourite take aways included "You're not here to be liked, you're here to be chosen" by Amy James; "A little stress improves learning…but a lot of long-term stress impairs it" by Dr Lila Landowski; "Become curious, embrace the unknown with courage, and back yourself" by Kat Kingsley.
Special mentions to Andi Lucas of X-Hemp building materials, who had us in awe and also in stitches from the twists and turns of how she approached life; and to Rosie Putland who inspired us to better support those with disabilities including vision impairments.
A big thanks to Bianca McKenzie and team for organising such a fabulous event, and to Dr Kate Cashman as a fabulous MC.
We're already looking forward to the next one 🥰.
