Promote Protect and Prioritise Workplace Mental Health
27 May @ 9:30 am - 3:00 pm
FreeA rare opportunity to join us on a fully subsidised program that re-focuses health & wellbeing for you and your workplace.
Support for business health & wellbeing has declined in contrast to the post-COVID demand for more access to better assistance. With funding assistance from the Victorian Government, we’ve fully subsided (yes, it’s free!) a program that will enhance your supportive leadership, prioritise workplace wellbeing, and boost workplace resilience.
We have only 20 places available gaining access to a packed program of insight, tools, tips, and practical information you can take back and immediately apply to your business.
Brought to you by Kate Meadows and Kylie Paatsch, this one day workshop will delve into crucial discussions and practical strategies to foster a mentally healthy work environment that raises awareness and education for all businesses on identifying and implementing strategies to support mental health challenges.
Date: Monday 27 May
Time: 9.30am-3pm
Venue: Novotel Geelong
This workshop is all about achieving three vital goals:

Guest Presenter:
Allyson Brown – Everheal
Allyson is the Director at Everheal and creator of the 4-Step LIFE Formula Program – a program specifically designed to fast track your results to eliminate debilitating symptoms of chronic fatigue and brain fog.
In 2005, Allyson was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) during her second year of her PhD as an analytical researcher. She experienced several severe relapses in the first three years after diagnosis and was told that she may be in a wheelchair before her 30th birthday if they couldn’t work out how to settle down the relapses.
In 2018, she hit rock bottom with her health and was crippled by chronic fatigue, depression, anxiety and brain fog that were so severe, that she had to resign from her job as an analyst due to declining health.
Now she is sharing her research findings with others who can benefit from the simple diet and lifestyle changes she discovered, so they too can boost their energy again and take back control of their health!
