<p>The fabulous Jacqui Davis joins us over a Friday coffee and vegemite toast from our beloved local café (@themabel) to talk all things flexibility – and in particular what it takes to leap off the corporate ladder into the unknown of a much needed career break and life-adjustment, and then the leap back into the world of paid employment in a dream role that meets her current needs from a work-and-life-juggle perspective.  Jacqui reflects on her journey and inspires us to think about our how we too can adjust along the way to better meet our needs – life is a journey after all, not a destination.  And good coffee always makes the journey more enjoyable ;)</p>

Peak performance on and off the field

Helen Butler and Leonie Green could see a pattern emerging.  Over great food and a glass of wine (or two) the same conversation kept coming up... it went along the lines of …

How lucky are we to be doing work we love, in a flexible way that works for us and our families?  We should be celebrating this fact, but instead, as we look around, we see workplaces that are not adopting flexible approaches fast enough and people crying out for flexibility and not being heard – or oftentimes not crying out at all for fear of the consequences and living with constant frustration or quietly existing and desperately trying to find an alternative.

Helen and Leonie decided that rather than pour another wine (well, actually as well as pouring another wine), they would go out and see what could be done about this state of affairs.
