Kate from is a health coach on a mission to support women to better manage stress.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) tracking gives business women a smarter way to manage pressure and performance. Learn how HRV tracking is a practical tool to understand stress and your nervous system, prevent burnout and make smarter decisions about work, rest, sleep, and recovery, without sacrificing ambition or family life.

"As a health coach with my own experience of burnout and complex illness, I understand what it's like to struggle with a variety of symptoms and not get answers from the medical system, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and wanting real support. ​

My expertise lies in my health coach approach, personal experience of burnout and chronic illness, knowledge of nutrition and the use of wearable devices to connect your daily activities with how your body responds."

Kate is leading a Masterclass for our membership this Thursday. You can join as a member on our website 'Join the Directory' to get access to this and other classes!

Sarah Greener is a business consultant, founder of The Moxie Movement, and the author of The Off Switch. She has spent 20 years building, buying, and selling businesses across multiple industries (including a boat charter company, a restaurant, and an Airbnb) while raising a family and relocating internationally.

Her work is built on one simple premise: the business advice most women are following was designed for someone without a second full-time job called parenting.

Through The Moxie Movement, Sarah helps established business owners rebuild the structure of their business and their life so that both run properly, at the same time, without one costing the other.

She works with women building businesses strong enough to run without them, profitable enough to pay them properly, and designed to outlast them.

Sarah is leading a FREE Masterclass for our NZ Women In Business Community- She Owns It on the 27 May - block out your lunch hour and come join us. Registration details are in the community.

Catherine Watson From Boldly is leading a Member Masterclass later this month - and we're really excited!

Catherine leads in graphic and web design for service-based businesses, with exciting, vibrant, quirky graphic and web design.

Her Masterclass will be on Accessibility Design for Better Marketing, and we'll be covering what are design accessibility considerations for your marketing and why it matters.

She'll talk about how everyday layout and content choices can unintentionally create barriers — and how small, thoughtful changes can make your marketing more inclusive and easier to see, read, understand and engage with.

Catherine will outline why this is good for business, plus some tips for easy improvements that are quick to implement!
