Happy International Women’s Day 💜
As a female owned small business with an entirely female team I would like to acknowledge and celebrate all the wonderful women in our network.

Last week we partnered with and to host the inaugural Women’s Wellness Soiree for an exclusive group of Brisbane’s female leaders.
Dr Kellie shared her insights and strategies from elite sport, equipping our guests with the tools needed to achieve sustainable career performance by leveraging their health, building resilience, and preventing burnout.
Key takeaways...
📌 Leveraging the power of recovery is key to performance longevity. ⏳💡
📌 Regulating your stress can be as simple as implementing daily micro strategies such as breathwork, nature breaks and mindfulness. 🧘♀️🌿🧠
📌 Be a change agent, role model healthy workplace practices. Show others and give others permission to do the same, especially as leaders. 👩💼🌟
Each guest took home a B.OK mindful moment gift to support them in embedding these habits into daily life. 🎁
Embrace the power of redirection this week. If nothing is going right, go left!
