Mental Wellbeing & Leadership Workshop with the North Queensland Cowboys

Mental Wellbeing & Leadership Workshop

On Tuesday night, I had the opportunity to attend a fantastic Mental Wellbeing & Leadership Workshop, held in conjunction with the North Queensland Cowboys and Townsville City Council.

It was an evening packed with valuable information and conversations that I believe can be applied to everyday life — whether you’re a professional athlete, a business owner, an employee, a parent, or simply navigating life’s challenges.

Some of the key messages I took away were:

The pressures we face and how much capacity we have to take on and give to others

The importance of positive self-talk

Building resilience

The power of effective communication — “Communication builds champions”

Finding purpose in what we do

Love what you do

Every person has a job and every person has a purpose

“I am strong. I can do this. I will succeed.”

I took away so much from this workshop — not just from a business perspective, but personally as well.

As a businesswoman, a mum to two girls, a swim mum to a competitive swimmer, and simply as me, it was a great reminder that we can’t always give everything to everyone else without also looking after ourselves.

Sometimes we need to stop, reset, change the way we talk to ourselves and remind ourselves that we are capable of more than we realise.

I’m taking these messages with me not only in my business, but in everyday life.

I am strong.

I can do this.

I will succeed.
