Overview
Join us for an inspiring and practical networking event for women working in – or aspiring to join – the financial advice profession.
Set against the stunning backdrop of Sydney Harbour during Vivid Sydney, this special evening combines professional development with a uniquely memorable experience.
This special event features leadership coach Suzy Jacobs, who will deliver her session Anchored: Self-Leadership for Women Navigating Modern Work and Life Women today are carrying more than ever.
Career pressure. Mental load. Constant decision-making. The invisible balancing act between ambition, caregiving, performance and identity.
At the same time, many women are still navigating:
- Pay gaps and bias
- Underplaying their value
- Difficulty advocating for themselves
- The pressure to stay likeable while remaining credible
- Burnout driven by invisible emotional labour
- Conflicting expectations around motherhood and career progression
This session explores what happens when external pressure starts disconnecting women from their own internal clarity and confidence.
Rather than offering surface-level productivity advice, Suzy introduces a practical self-leadership framework that helps women make clearer decisions, communicate with greater conviction and navigate complexity without losing themselves in the process.
Blending psychology, behavioural insight, personal storytelling and practical reflection, this session creates space for honest conversation around the realities many women experience but rarely articulate out loud.
Following the session, enjoy the opportunity to connect with Suzy and your peers while taking in breathtaking harbour views and the vibrant light installations of Vivid Sydney – creating space for both meaningful conversation and memorable moments.
Places are limited to maintain an intimate and high-quality networking experience. Early registration is recommended.
We look forward to seeing you there!
