As the year draws to a close, social enterprise leaders and purpose-driven professionals find themselves navigating two parallel challenges: closing out the demands of 2025 and gearing up for a strong, mindful start to 2026. The online session organised by Queensland Social Enterprise Council (QSEC) offers a strategic pause—a dedicated hour to focus on emotional regulation, rest, and leadership resilience. Hosted on Wednesday 12 November (11 am–12 pm JST), the event will equip leaders with practical strategies to manage stress, lead with empathy, protect personal wellbeing over the festive period, and return renewed and ready for impact in the new year. The presenter, Leanne Butterworth—founder of Empathy First and TEDx speaker—brings deep expertise in emotional literacy, active listening and unconscious bias. Attendees will also receive the session recording, report and resources post-event to support ongoing application.
