Most women think they’re running out of time. But what they’re really running out of is energy, doing things the way they always have. At Leading Rein, we help capable women who’ve been quietly doing it all often in a state of invisible overwhelm, finally start prioritising themselves- GUILT FREE

Through experiential learning and behavioural insight (with and without horses), we help women uncover what’s really been driving them, so they can lead, live, and work from a place of self-trust and direction, not survival. Our workshops and experiences blend self-leadership, emotional fitness, and identity development for women who are ready to:
✨ Stop running on empty
✨ Build sustainable energy for what’s next
✨ Create a life that feels meaningful, not just full

Programs include:
• Time For You in Tasmania™ – a 3-day personal and professional reset for high-functioning women
• Women’s One-Day Workshops – local development and networking experiences
• Team & Culture Development – tailored workplace programs using eDISC and equine-assisted learning

Regulation doesn’t mean calm.

I talk a lot about Emotional Fitness. It’s something I’m trained to support you with.

Being emotionally fit doesn’t mean you become so good at managing yourself that nothing knocks you around anymore.

It doesn’t mean you will never get angry, frustrated, disappointed, overwhelmed or anxious.

And it doesn’t mean the goal is to get yourself back to “calm” as quickly as possible.

You can be angry and still choose what you do with that anger.

You can be disappointed without letting disappointment make the decision.

You can be rattled and still notice the story you’re telling yourself.

You can feel uncertain without immediately reaching for control just to make the feeling go away.

That’s the part of Emotional Fitness I’m most interested in.

What happens when you’re not calm?

Can you notice what’s happening within you?
Can you recognise the old response that wants to kick in?
Can you feel what you’re feeling without automatically letting it drive what you do next?

Calm might come afterwards.

But calm isn’t the goal.

Having the awareness is.

That’s where the power move lives.

Because awareness brings choice.

You catch yourself sooner, so you can choose what happens next instead of writing it off as “just who I am.”

There’s something interesting that happens when we’re faced with uncertainty or something we’ve never done before.

Before we have a reference point, there’s the unknown.

And then there’s all the meaning we can give that unknown.

I can’t do this.
I don’t know what’s going to happen.
What if I get it wrong?
This feels way outside my comfort zone.

And then we take the first step.

Suddenly we have some information to draw from.

The unknown becomes a little more known.

And sometimes, not long after telling ourselves we can’t do something, we find ourselves doing exactly that.

That’s one of the things I love about experiential learning.

It gives us the time to notice our thoughts, our actions and our behaviours as they’re actually happening.

And to consider:

Are they helping or hindering the things we want to have a crack at?

It’s also why I find these one-day workshops so tricky to describe.

I can’t tell you exactly WHAT you’ll get from the day.

But I can tell you you’ll walk out feeling different to when you arrived.

I turned 47 today.

Update 4.7.

Funny thing is, when I hit 40, I genuinely thought I’d entered ‘that’ era of life.

Midlife. Aged.

And somehow, life starts looking like there’s less from here on in.

I sure don’t see it like that anymore.
These days, I see birthdays as a gift.

Because every new year is another opportunity to update.

Some parts of you still fit.
Some don’t.
Some things that mattered ten years ago now don’t.
And some things you spent years waiting on are non negotiable now.

I think where we run into trouble is expecting outdated versions of ourselves to keep running our current lives.

And then wondering why things feel discombobulated.

Maybe midpoint of life isn’t the beginning of falling apart.

Maybe some of it is realising you’ve outgrown old ways of operating and you haven’t quite met the version of you that comes next.

I am only just entering version 4.7.

But I’m bloody glad I get to meet her.

I think some of the best conversations happen when you’re not looking for them.

I had this one because I was in the wrong seat.
It was with Luke.

In 50min we’d talked about work, pressure, people, behaviour, critical care, horses, relationships, defaults and the very different strategies we draw on depending on the environment we’re in.

Some conversations are just conversations.
And some can quietly expand your perspective.

I’m very glad I sat in the wrong seat that day.

Although Luke, I’m still hoping I never need to take you up on the critical care offer. 😂

20/09/2026

Apparently we have slightly different definitions of “quality time”. 😂

In fairness, this is pretty much us.

We love walking together.

We just don’t necessarily need to be joined at the hip while we’re doing it. 😂

Anyone else married to someone whose walking pace suggests they’re trying to lose you?

I spent years thinking more time would solve it.
Get through this week.
Get the kids settled.
Get this job finished.
Get past this particularly ridiculous patch of life.
THEN there’d be a bit more room for me.
Except there was always another thing.
And I’m not saying those things weren’t real. They absolutely were.
I’m questioning the bit I didn’t question for a very long time:
Why did everything else have to be sorted before I was allowed some of my own time?
Because if that’s the rule…
I’m not sure more hours in the day would have fixed it either.

Have you heard of the AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award?
And before the word “Rural” or “Award” makes you think that’s probably not for me, please keep reading!

You don’t have to be a farmer, and you don’t have to think of yourself as a high level leader to apply.

The Award is for women with an existing business, project or program that is creating impact in rural and regional Australia. That might be through community, collaboration or commercial work.

Each State and Territory winner receives a $15,000 grant to help develop their work, plus a $7,500 Learning and Development budget.

But there is so much more to this Award than the money.
The professional development, opportunities, exposure and particularly the connections you make, both here in Tasmania and through the national Alumni network of more than 450 women, are a huge part of what comes from being involved.

I know it can be really easy to look at something called the Rural Women’s Award and think, I’m not ag enough for that.
Don’t rule yourself out before you’ve had a look.

If you’re interested in staying up to date, curious about whether what you’re doing might fit, or you’re ready to apply, reach out to me.

As the current Tassie State Chair and 2023 State Winner, I’m happy to have a chat, answer your questions and help you work out whether the Rural Women’s Award or the Acceleration Program might be a fit for you.

Just because the way you operate works, doesn’t mean it isn’t costing you.

And when life is full, it can be bloody hard to see the patterns that have simply become your normal.

Sometimes you need to step out of the noise to notice them.

That’s what The Update is for.

Applications are officially open for the Agrifutures 2027 Rural Women’s Award and I’d love you to consider yourself or shoulder tap another in your state and territory networks.

If you’ve been in the fence about applying or even if you’re a right fit, please REACH OUT.
This award is currently in it’s 26th year 👏

It provides a national platform, leadership development opportunities and financial support to help rural, regional and remote women grow their influence, strengthen their capabilities and accelerate their impact.

And if you have had the thoughts where you don’t think you’re “Ag enough” I’d love the opportunity to have a conversation with you about that too.

I think we can get very good at making decisions within the parameters of our lives.

What needs doing.
What makes sense.
What works for the family.
What the business needs.
What we can realistically fit in.

And we can make those decisions really well.

But that’s not quite the same as asking ourselves what we actually want.

I think noticing that matters.

Because sometimes “I don’t know” can start to feel like there’s something we need to figure out. Like the answer is buried somewhere and if we think hard enough, journal enough or make the right pros and cons list, eventually we’ll find it.

Maybe we don’t always need a big answer.

Maybe we just need to start paying attention again.

To the things we keep being drawn towards.
What we miss.
What gives us energy.
What we wish there was a little more room for.

Not because every one of those things needs to become a goal or a big life change.

Just because they might be telling us something.

And that feels like a pretty good place to start.
