Harmony from Heritage - Wisdom for Modern Leadership
Our Story
My story embodies the very transformation I facilitate in organisations. As a proud descendant of both Wambaya people from the Barkly tablelands and English settlers, I carry wisdom from two very different worlds that learned to come together in harmony.
From my Wambaya ancestors, I inherited deep understanding of collective responsibility and stewardship - that true leadership means caring for the wellbeing of the whole community. My grandmother's resilience through the Stolen Generations, my great-great grandmother's adaptation to massive change when the first Europeans arrived on her country - these incredible women demonstrated that sustainable transformation happens when we honor both individual strength and collective wellbeing.
From my English heritage comes appreciation for structure, innovation, and the courage to build something new in unfamiliar territory - qualities that complement the Indigenous wisdom of connection to country and community.
This lived experience of two cultures finding harmony guides every engagement. Just as my ancestors learned that true strength comes from integration rather than division, I help leadership teams discover that their diversity becomes their greatest asset when unified around genuine care for people. When leaders embrace their role as stewards of their people's potential - honouring both individual contributions and collective purpose - extraordinary things become possible."
