There was a great line up of speeches on this year’s theme of Breaking the Bias, Mental Wellbeing, Domestic Violence and Human Rights.

Great conversations took place about where we still need to break the bias in relation to women’s economic participation, mental health and domestic violence.

It was a wonderful evening hearing about our strengths as women, some of our struggles and networking with likeminded women sharing similar sentiments.

Sharda Jogia, another speaker from New South Wales Health shared a wonderful mantra and asked all the women to repeat after her affirming our worth as wonderful and strong women.
