Working alongside Leo Aspite at The Alternative Board Gosford, I support local business owners through a combination of peer advisory boards, one-on-one coaching, and strategic leadership and business transformation programmes. I love that The Alternative Board gives me the tools to help leaders not only think more clearly but take practical steps to grow their business, strengthen their teams, and align their strategy with their long-term goals.

With over 30 years of experience across small business, consulting, and the not-for-profit sector, I bring a broad and grounded perspective to my work. I co-founded and led Invitation to Health, an award-winning integrative medical practice, from start-up through to successful acquisition in 2021. That journey taught me firsthand what it takes to manage people, plan for growth, and navigate tough decisions under pressure.

Before The Alternative Board, I held leadership roles with Good Foundations, Mission Australia, and the Westmead Medical Research Foundation, working on everything from strategic planning to major fundraising campaigns. I now also serve as International President of Invitation to Life, a global values-based organisation active in 30 countries.

As a facilitator and coach, I help business owners clarify their goals, overcome obstacles, and build businesses that work for them — not the other way around. Through The Alternative Board’s collaborative approach, members tap into a wealth of shared experience and practical insight from peers who truly understand their challenges. It’s that collective wisdom, combined with ongoing accountability and support, that keeps business owners focused and moving forward.

What I enjoy most about this work is creating space for honest conversations. Whether I’m facilitating a board or working with clients on strategic leadership and business transformation, I aim to bring a calm presence and a practical mindset to whatever challenges they’re facing.

For business owners considering a membership with The Alternative Board, my advice is straightforward — say yes. It’s an incredible opportunity to connect with like-minded leaders, gain practical insights, and access a trusted network that will support you through challenges and growth. Beyond strengthening your business, The Alternative Board has the potential to create positive change in your life as a whole.
