Thank you for a wonderful RU OK? Day Coffee Connection!

We had such a lovely time of connection, conversation and community.

A huge thank you Vicki Doolan for sharing her time, experience and thoughtful message with us. Your reminder that checking in, listening and genuinely asking “Are you OK?” can make such a difference was the perfect fit for our morning.

We’d also like to give a very special thank you to Bradey and Charlene Livermore, proprietors of Blank Cheque Trading Co., for welcoming us back into their space and supporting our event. We’re grateful for the work you do in our community and for creating a place where people can come together.

And finally, thank you to all our RWNCQ members and guests who joined us. It’s your enthusiasm, conversations and willingness to connect that make these events so worthwhile. We loved seeing familiar faces and meeting new ones!

Photos from the day are now on our website at https://rwncq.wildapricot.org/Photos

And registration is now open for our October Spring Happy Hour, so be sure to grab your spot!

Thank you for being part of the Regional Women's Network. We’ll see you at the next one!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us on Friday for Network & Nibbles with Rhonda Morton.

It was wonderful to gather with so many incredible women from across our region for an afternoon of connection, conversation, and inspiration. A special shout out to the remarkable committee members from Queensland Rural, Regional and Remote Women's Network who joined us before their beautiful long lunch on Saturday!

Rhonda's insights on leadership and resilience resonated deeply. Her willingness to share both her professional experience and personal journey made for a truly engaging and thought-provoking discussion.

Events like these remind us of the power of coming together to learn from one another, support each other, and strengthen the network that makes RWNCQ such a special community.

Thank you to Rhonda for sharing her time and wisdom, and thank you to all who attended and contributed to the vibrant atmosphere of the afternoon. More photos are up on our website!

We look forward to seeing you at our next event, a coffee connection in on 9 July at the Boathouse Cafe!

OUR JUNE SPEAKER: RHONDA MORTON

What people remember most about Rhonda Morton is how she makes leaders feel more capable, calmer, and clearer.

Her background across hospitals, universities, boards, and partnerships positions her strongly around influence, stakeholder alignment, and systems thinking.

Book your ticket now to meet Rhonda and learn from her two decades of executive leadership and coaching while she shares the insights gathered from working with leaders across Australia, the research that grounds them, and the practical tools that actually stick.

Due to the recent passing of our RWNCQ President, Melissa Lobegeier, we have made the decision to cancel our upcoming Members Only event:

Women’s Mental Health Lunchwith Kate Richardson, Activate HealthAt the Great Western Hotel on 20 May

At this time, our committee and members are taking space to honour Melissa’s life, leadership, and extraordinary contribution to our network and wider community.

Melissa was at the heart of so much of what Regional Women’s Network Central Queensland represents: connection, support, growth, and showing up for one another. It feels only right that we pause this event as we reflect on her legacy and support those closest to her.

We thank Kate Richardson and our members for your understanding and compassion during this time.

Further updates regarding future events will be shared in due course.

With appreciation,

The RWNCQ Committee
