Bali de-brief

Bali de-brief

Oh my. Bali with your buddies. 5 days and 5 nights with no kids - which essentially means; no cooking, no cleaning, no washing, no grocery shopping, no car pooling, no mediating, no negotiating, no home-work supervision... I've been lucky enough to make a few trips to Bali over the years, some as a family, some as a big group of friends,  and some as a girl gang.

Byron Bay - best of

Byron Bay - best of

I thank my lucky stars that I stumbled onto the Owners Collective. Pru, Nicky and the team do Business Education differently. I've learned so much since joining their crew 18months ago, and have met the most incredibly inspiring and motivating bunch of legends - all creative entrepreneurs doing business their way. And killing it. Recently the OC relocated to Bryon Bay, so it was the perfect excuse to take a mini break, head up there and throw down with this group of girl bosses:     I stayed at Elements which is North of the town and by the Arts...
