🌿 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝟭: 𝗜’𝗺 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻 🌿

A year ago, I made the decision to step back from interstate and regional travel to focus on caring responsibilities. It was the right decision for my family at the time.

During that year, Empowerment2Be continued. I kept supporting individuals and families through therapy, supervision and community work, while continuing to learn, grow and deepen my practice across neurodiversity, dementia, family support and cultural supervision.

And now, I’m excited to share that 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹, 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮! ✈️

I’m reopening bookings for:

🎤 Conference presentations
📚 Workshops and professional development
🗣️ Guest speaking
💻 Online training and workshops
🌏 Regional, interstate and community-based sessions

But this isn't just about returning to what I was doing before. 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝟮𝗕𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴.

I've already accepted an additional group of students for cultural supervision, as well as new agencies seeking cultural supervision support.

I'm also continuing to invest in my own learning, with further training already booked in 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮, 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲.

So while I stepped back from travel for a time, I certainly didn't stop learning, working, connecting or growing.

Now I'm looking forward to reconnecting with organisations, professionals and communities across WA and beyond — and seeing where this next chapter takes us.

💜 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸! 💜

World Breastfeeding Week has always been a special time of year for me.

Many years ago, during this very week, my Mum breastfed me for the first time. I had no idea then how much that single moment would shape both my personal and professional life.

Since 𝟮𝟬𝟬𝟯, I've had the privilege of breastfeeding or supporting breastfeeding families through counselling, education, advocacy and social work. I've walked alongside parents through the joys, challenges and everything in between, celebrating every feed, every milestone and every family's unique journey.

Breastfeeding is about so much more than nutrition. It supports connection, responsive relationships, infant and parent mental health, sustainability and healthier communities. Every family deserves access to evidence-based, compassionate and non-judgemental support to help them achieve their own breastfeeding goals.

This World Breastfeeding Week, let's celebrate, advocate and continue to 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 for babies, parents and communities.

Happy World Breastfeeding Week! 🌿🤱
