Jo Wagstaff had it all. Or so she thought. At 32 she was an executive at a leading wealth management company. She had the career, the fancy car, a beautiful home, husband and baby. Until it all began to unravel. That year her marriage ended and her dad died of cancer. To numb the grief Jo worked harder, drank more, used drugs for the first time and found the most dysfunctional relationship she could – all while giving the perception to the outside world that she was thriving. While it all seemed very dark, it was also the beginning of her journey out of the darkness towards a more authentic way of life. Today she coaches men and women about their power and how to find the inner confidence to choose their best lives.

Have you ever felt like you are the only person thinking or feeling a certain way? Dr Jen Martin has researched and compiled an amazing list of questions and answers about how we tick that will show you that you’re definitely not alone. Everything from why we have a fear of missing out, to why multitasking is so hard ( and ineffective) and why holding eye contact is exhausting. Does everyone have more friends than me, and why do I keep putting things off? It has given her a very practical understanding of why we behave the way we do and just how normal we really are, even when we don’t feel it.

Pam Ahern lives each day in tune with true happiness. She is the founder of Edgar’s Mission, a farm animal sanctuary in Victoria where she - and others - care for abandoned animals and animals rescued from factory farming. A loving advocate for the rights of animals, Pam approaches the subject without judgment or anger. But she wants us to talk about why we treat some animals - like our dogs and cats - with love and protection but don’t give the same rights to the animals we farm for food, like pigs, cows and chickens. She also asks the question: What if we are wrong? What if we are not supposed to use animals for food but are supposed to care for them instead? It’s an uncomfortable subject for a lot of people but Pam has a lot of wisdom to share about How We Can Live Happy Lives Without Harming Others.

Jelena Dokic is an extraordinary and inspiring woman. A former tennis international who achieved a top ranking of number 4 in the world, she has also had a personal and professional life beset by challenges. Throughout her childhood and teenage years she was abused physically and mentally by her father and coach Damir Dokic.

Since then she has embarked on a mission to reclaim her life from the trauma of her childhood abuse.
