Tuesday 10th August:
How to STAY SANE when you are FEMALE
and running your OWN business!
**plus a complimentary half an hour extra
networking with 30-40 business owners**
Running your own business can be one of the most satisfying experiences of your life. If self employment is right for you, then you know it’s worth the long hours and sacrifices. That doesn’t mean you don’t have moments of doubt and times when you get exhausted.
The secret is to find a way to keep your energy levels up, particularly if you are guilty of the female preoccupation of trying to do it all and have it all.
If you love what you do but find you need some new strategies to help you cope with the ups and downs of being a self employed woman in the 21st century, then help is at hand. If you want to go from feeling slightly crazy to being in control of your life then what you need is a F.R.E.S.H. approach. Using a simple 5 step formula, learn how you can get back your energy and become fully engaged in your business, no matter what stage of development you are at.
Karen Schmidt is an engaging speaker with a positive attitude that has taken her from recruiter to award winning professional speaker. Along the way she has experienced the highs and lows of the workplace including retrenchment, discrimination, stagnation and more.
No matter what the obstacle she has found a way to overcome it and even managed to get a degree, start her own business and win a few awards along the way. She has now been successfully self employed for over 12 years, travelling nationally and internationally spreading her engaging messages whilst still finding a way to maintain a life.
Her highly interactive session is packed full of tips for women who are starting out, branching out and getting out of employment. Whatever your situation, come along and learn how being F.R.E.S.H. can change your attitude and reignite your business for success.

"Kylie, what a wonderful service to offer the entrepreneurial women of Brisbane!! I feel so energised after last night!! It is refreshing to meet other women who are just as enthusiastic to grow their own businesses and help and support women around them. I would highly recommend these events to any woman, whether she is starting a business, growing a business or in a successful business – thank you again! " Stephanie Bressan, Principal, Stellar Strategies.
"Without fail, I come out every Brisbane Woman workshop and networking event feeling more focused, optimistic, connected, and ‘in the know’ than I did going into it. Kylie Welsh’s events are comprehensive and enlightening. The tools gained are instantly applicable in business and guests are left feeling empowered, rather than overwhelmed with ‘to-dos’. Thanks to the Brisbane Woman workshops, and networking, I am a business woman with a clear, active, and increasingly achievable purpose!" Sophee McPhee Editor - UP! Magazine
"In the beginning I thought "$50 is great value for money for a Brisbane networking and speaker event, I’ll give it a go". But they have been even better than expected. The other women there are so easy to talk to. Networking is actually enjoyable (who would’ve thought??) and the speakers always give great practical advice that I can apply to my business - and to my life." Megan Hills. Director, Wordmix.
"I have attended most of Kylie’s Brisbane Woman workshops and networking events and find them to be not only fun, but great for business too. The networking aspect of the workshops is great and I have picked up some great clients too. But what I really like about the workshops is that each one is set around a central theme to help educate and inspire attendees to better themselves both personally and professionally. I have gained a lot from these workshops and also value the opportunity to network with like-minded women from all over Brisbane and beyond. Anybody who wants to attend a workshop for women that is just a little bit different should really consider attending a Brisbane Woman workshop and networking event - you will be so glad you did! "Michelle Green, Director. www.globalwebmarketingservices.com
