.............a wonderful day of inspiration, motivation and learning for parents

Raising children today is an undeniably important job that requires you to be forever on top of your game. But it’s hard always having to be your kid’s coach, counsellor and cheerleader. It can wear you down and before you know you it, you’ve become that tired, negative, grumpy parent that you swore (Before Kids) that you’d never be!

Not any more!

I’ve put together wonderful day of learning and inspiration to re-energise your parenting; recharge your batteries and renew your determination to be the best parent you can be for your child.

I’ve searched Australia-wide, and hand-picked 8 of the best, most inspiring parenting speakers in the country, and I’m bringing them together for just one day. Each is an expert in their field, and each has wonderful personal story to tell.

8 of the very BEST

Here’s my hit list of presenters and their topics for this great day of inspiration & learning:

Bruce Sullivan CSP*: Building Red Hot Family relationships. You’ll never argue with your kids over trivial stuff again after hearing this inspirational story. (Find out more about this speaker)

Take in the delights of wonderful Melbourne.........

We’ve negotiated some great hotel rates so that you can extend your stay over the weekend and take in some of the wonderful sights and sounds of Melbourne including the great sports events, sight-seeing and of course, the shopping. There’s plenty of accommodation and sight-seeing options on the conference website.

Come with your partner

It’s hard sometimes to take in so much information and then go home and share it with your partner. The speakers will get you thinking and talking so bring your partner along so you can share the conversation and the learning long after the Extravaganza has finished.

Share a meal

We’ll provide all refreshments on arrival and during the breaks as well as a delicious lunch so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
