‘Power Up’: How to build your personal resource tool kit

Women don’t need to be told we are multi-taskers; we’re too busy getting on with things! Women are inevitably the carers, the sweepers and always the last ones to devote time to ourselves, regardless of our paths in life.

Add a busy domestic situation and a demanding career into the mix, and it’s no wonder time seems to pass by in a flurry of to-do lists, where personal development often gets relegated to the ‘pending’ column.

At the next IMAGE Business Club Live event, which takes place on Wednesday, August 10 at The Westbury Hotel, IMAGE Media contributing editor Melanie Morris will moderate an evening where the focus will return to ourselves.

What’s on the Agenda

• We will learn not only tips on how to boost our resources and reserves, but also a few simple hacks for addressing life balance.
• In addition, we’ll coach you through the barriers to career progression and how these can be tackled to ensure we all reach the end of 2022 having maximised our potential and in our most positive mind space.
• On the practical side, join us as we hear from experts Lucy Gernon, executive coach for women, Dr Mary Ryan, consultant physician and endocrinologist, and Hannah Saunders, director and founder of Hannah Saunders PR, on how to optimise female health at various life stages; how to build both physical and mental stamina; how to improve focus and what simple supports can be factored into daily life.

 

There will be plenty to learn from the experts as well as those who’ve carved outstanding career paths by building their own personal resource tool kits and, of course, plenty of opportunities to enjoy the five-star surroundings of The Westbury Hotel, network over Malfy and Fever Tree cocktails and canapés, and depart with a luxurious gift bag. It’s the ideal mid-summer reboot!
