The colours of the coastline seemed especially vivid this morning. This is from a morning walk on the Central Coast.

27/04/2024

I woke early today to see the sunrise from this iconic spot. It was raining just enough to be annoying. So we abandoned the walk and drove. The rain slowed and the sun came up. It was as magic as ever. There is a reason so many people dream of a Byron lifestyle. I hope you are enjoying a long weekend wherever you are.

This is out today…
Jennifer Robinson was just 28 years old when she became a part of what was, at the time, the biggest news story in the world: Julian Assange and Wikileaks. From the outset, Robinson was told that she was too young - a critique exemplified by a demoralising interaction with one of the world’s most eminent lawyers.

For the first time, Jennifer Robinson shares that moment, how she forged her place as one of the most prodigious legal minds of her generation and shares her advice for the next generation of legal minds when they’re told that they’re also too young. Out now!! Supported by Victoria Police @vicpol

Hello all, I have been too busy with the speaker line up to post! But tickets are on sale and will likely sell out. It's a brilliant event thanks to the fine attention to detail at FW.
Head to futurewomen.com for details & agenda. There is the full program. If you don't have an IWD plan... this should be it!

Hello, this week I have caught up with a lot of people but only remembers to capture the moment. This is after dinner in Melbourne where the city is crazy with tennis fans and finding a relaxed place for dinner hard! We were back on the street and heading home well before the sun went down.

My friend Annabel recommended this book as the one holiday read I should commit to this summer. I am posting because I loved every single page... if you are still on holidays head to your bookstore now! This is a very hard recommend.

The Grange Jetty seal put on a show this morning. A delightful way to end 2023. Have a great day where ever you are.

Today I was in Brisbane talking about the launch of Jobs Academy in Queensland. There is more to come on this. But very pleased to be offering our Academy program to underemployed women in the Sunshine State. This was taken in the security operation centre at CyberCX. Thanks to the partnership and to the Queensland Government and Premier Palaszczuk for supporting the initiative. #

Twenty years ago I was in the Canberra press gallery when my little brother Luke (pictured) was drafted to Hawthorn. This week we went to Melbourne to watch his lovely/clever son Will follow in Luke's footsteps. The father and son rule means I will have to dust of the scarf! Thanks to the for allowing us to be there this time. PS I think it was Henry McCabe or maybe it was Ed who pointed out that their Dad was pick 15 and Will 19

20/11/2023

Hello, the extended family and friends are very proud of this young man. Despite a lot of attention and pressure he never lost his cool... and was drafted to Hawthorn. Although his three brothers and sister might have been more excited than he was. Well done Will. As the coach said - training starts Monday.

This tiny Flannel flower has popped up among a pile of mulch. I have reached an age where walking in the garden is pure joy.

The day after the October long weekend. I am grabbing 20 minutes before life kicks off again.

18/09/2023

This is what happens when you only see the small family members a handful of times a year! And no they did not eat it all. In fact eating these disgusting combinations was least fun bit about a Yo Chi store. Right Grace, Jack and Harry?

10/09/2023

Sooo I resisted this book for awhile.. why? I didn't believe it could hold my interest. I was very wrong. I can't put it down. This is a hard recommend. Thank you to the excellent staff at the Potts Point bookshop... who also gave it a big tick

21/08/2023

This was taken only moments after birth. I spent a rare day in the country seeing some beautiful Australian landscape .

This is too pretty not to share. The famous finger bun from Humble bakery in Surry Hills. It's a Saturday morning treat. And tastes even better than it looks. It's also on the same street where I worked for a good part of my career.

Mother's Day in SA. Mum is easy to spot. She's proudly watching beat St Kilda surrounded by the entire clan which includes 10 grandchildren, four children and a handful of partners.

Hello, this is from last night. I woke to a text from who thoughtfully suggested I stand in front of this beautiful wall outside the . The backstory is Sam was speaking on a panel as part of the post budget dinner alongside Major General Sue Graham. It was a terrific evening (I think there were five men in the room) with a compelling keynote by . Thanks to everyone involved especially La Trobe Financial and the FW team

On the weekend I went to a spectacular party 🎉. It was actually fancy dress (which is not clear from this pic, you are correct) but I caught up with some old friends. Including this excellent human ( newspaper magazine editor) Liz Coleman. I forget how disruptive Covid was and still is.. so many people I have barely seen in recent years.

Hello
Sunrise on the NSW Central Coast. It's not obvious but the waves were huge at Umina today. If you near the coast it is worth rugging up and heading down to have a look.

05/05/2023

Thanks to for everyone you do! But also for the FUN... here I am with the Gidget CEO and board member and . Thank you Arabella and Gidget for a great lunch raising much needed funds for perinatal depression.

William McCabe inherited the family sporting gene and then grew taller than anyone could ever have imagined. Here he is trying not to be photographed by his aunt as he took to the field for the U18's at Central Districts at Elizabeth yesterday. For Doggie fans ..
Sturt narrowly won.

This is my favourite coastline. Sunrise on Grange beach. I am back in SA for a weekend of football, friends and the 100th anniversary of the local church.

Tonight I had the great privilege of hearing Majorie Jackson Nelson speak about her Olympic career in particular those early days of training in Lithgow. Marj (as she asks to be called) was there for the opening of the MJN Centre for Women in Sport in Adelaide. A shout out to for the vision and funding and to the excellent team at Sport SA for an inspiring night at The Drive.
MJN is pictured with her great nieces...and Minister Hildyard.

The constant rain on the Central Coast has its advantages. The creeks of Pearl Beach are all flowing adding to the beauty of this sleepy spot. Happy long weekend. #pearlbeach #waterways #centralcoast #nature #weekend #kingsbirthday #junelongweekend

The latest episode features one of the most experienced HR executives in the country. Sian Lewis is brimming with insights/wisdom. I've been quoting this interview all week.
