I have managed multiple mindful leadership and social impact conferences and trainings on behalf of organisations including Purpose, Wake Up Project and Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute.

Purpose
Purpose Conference is a place where ideas are sparked, community is formed and conversations can help us navigate an uncertain future. Purpose exists to see mainstream business transformed to be entirely sustainable, responsible and human.
Bringing together purpose-driven entrepreneurs, teams, agitators and advocates for change, I had the privilege of working with Sally Hill and the Purpose team as Operations Lead and Partner Manager in 2022 for two days of cutting edge content, learning, music, food, art and networking.
The 2022 immersive two-day event covered: Nature x Tech | Impact Capital | Circular Economy & Regenerative Business | Health & Wellbeing | First Nations Wisdom | Diversity & Belonging | Responsible Technology.
