I’m running a VIP Day for High Achievers on 10th March at Hotel Britomart:

⭐ Do you feel proud of how far you’ve come, but often find yourself “working” too much?
⭐ Do you love making a difference and adding value, yet sometimes feel drained in the process?
⭐ Are you a strong and independent spirit, but struggle to lean into difficult conversations?
⭐ Do you support your team to thrive, but sometimes at the expense of your own energy and capacity?
⭐ Is there a tough inner critic nagging at you?
⭐ Do you find it hard to delegate or collaborate and wish you could release control more?
⭐ Do you struggle with sleep, switching off, relaxing, or being fully present?
⭐ Are you glued to your phone, laptop, or notifications?
⭐ Is it tough to carve out time for thinking, planning, or reflecting during your workday?

High achiever syndrome is real. Imposter syndrome is real. Both can leave you doubting yourself, second-guessing your decisions, and not giving enough credit to the magic you bring to the table. YOU. ARE. HARD. ON. YOURSELF.

If any of this resonates, I’m holding a special day just for you. A VIP Day for high achievers who want to reflect, laugh, create, and dream. A day to reset and step into the rest of the year with intention and positive design. You’ll have the opportunity to clarify what truly matters to you and embrace your unique strengths to navigate forward with exciting and solid intention.

I’ll be sharing valuable insights, and strategies to boost your creativity, confidence and positivity. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding that you can have more (or all) of what you want.

I’ve curated this day to be unique and unforgettable. It’s a day packed with powerful content and special touches that make it feel like a true treat. A chance to escape the grind, all while staying in the heart of the city.

This day will take place at the stunning Hotel Britomart, a 5-star green building. Upon arrival, you’ll receive a goodie bag, including a beautiful journal for your reflections, a special guest speaker, delicious food throughout, a cocktail hour to celebrate and cap off the day, fabulous giveaways, and a special donation to a charity of your choice. And many more exciting surprises waiting for you.

All of this for just $995 (ex GST) per person. Don’t miss out – it’s going to be AMAZING!
Oh and a 15% discount off room rates for you - maybe make a weekend/night of it!

Monday 10th March, Hotel Britomart, Galway Place, Britomart, Auckland

I invite you to live up to your values in 2024. Value your values. They are unique. They are your guiding light. I did my values exercise over 20 years ago…

After my post last week, this is great to see. Let’s hope this donation by the ASB starts to create a movement with more following suit…

Given the help that so many need right now to get back on their feet. The awful devastation of lives, property & livelihoods, maybe these large profiteers could dig deeper to give back.

All banks, pharma, food co’s & tech who are sitting on massive profits, some of it made through the pain & suffering of others, could look at their social conscious/philanthropic focused strategies. I appreciate that there are some but time to redesign & ramp it up surely.

Time for a movement that pushes for a compulsory percentage of these profits to be put back into helping the society that they consistently make money from.

I have joined forces with 2 highly respected, stand out leaders to deliver a 1:1 8 week high impact leadership course for senior leaders. It’s unique and different in its content and approach and quite frankly rocks!! It has received great uptake so far and we are now looking out to an April start for any new clients. We have very limited spaces due to our other work commitments.

If you’re keen to come and join with the 3 of us next year on a powerful, fun, punchy programme all about YOU as a leader then reach out for more info.
