Join us in January to kick start 2026 in a powerful way.

With a focus on People, Processes and Performance, you'll review what's working, refine and clarify your focus for the quarter ahead, and walk out with a 90-day action plan to get real momentum towards your goals.

We know 2026 doesn't really kick off until school returns and the public holidays wrap up. Consider this your opportunity to avoid the back-to-busy whiplash. Carve out this day to strategically review 2025 and create a powerful Q1 plan - so you ease into the year calm, clear and focused.

Together, we'll review your business - uncovering your blind spots, identifying what's working (and what's not), and creating your 3 PRIORITIES for the quarter ahead.

This is an opportunity to be in the room with me and other inspiring like-minded peers. You'll walk through a proven reflection and planning framework that has supported my clients to become more focused, less overwhelmed, and significantly more profitable.



This is for you if:

  • You're a business owner doing $750K-$3M+ annual revenue where your people ARE critical to service delivery
  • You've been growing your business and now feel "optimistically busy" but not strategically focused
  • You're so done with the never-ending to-do list, and want 2026 to be the year where you have crystal-clear priorities and a decision-making anchor that makes daily choices obvious
  • You're ready to transform your team  into high-performers so they operate without your constant involvement, and you want 2026 to feel calm, clear, and profitable

The Philosophy: Get A Bit Better Every Quarter

This isn't a one-off event. Future quarterly reviews will be held in April, July & October 2026.

The intention is for you to come to all four - building momentum quarter by quarter - without the obligation of locking in for the full year. Come to one. Come to all. The choice is yours.

(Warning: You're going to love it, so we'll share with you all the future dates so you can plan around them if you choose!)

What To Expect:

A calm, spacious day in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane - designed for deep strategic thinking

We'll begin with a powerful review of 2025: What worked? What didn't? Where did you get stuck?

Then we'll work through the 3 critical areas of your business:

  • Your People: Are they helping or hindering your growth? What needs to change?
  • Your Processes: Where are the bottlenecks strangling your business?
  • Your Performance: What KPIs and metrics actually matter at your stage?

Time for questions, peer discussion, and strategic coaching throughout the day

Morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea included - space to connect with peers, think deeply, and let insights settle

You'll leave With:

Your 3 PRIORITIES for the next 90 days mapped out - the focused, achievable plan that will move the needle (not another overwhelming to-do list)

A decision-making anchor so that those micro daily decisions about priorities disappear and what deserves your attention becomes obvious

Clarity on the metrics and KPIs that actually matter - what's important to track at your stage of business, and what your perfect numbers are for the quarter ahead

Confidence in what's "normal" - finally know if what you're experiencing is fixable or just part of growth at your revenue stage

Peer support - new connections with growth-minded business owners who "get it"

30-minute 1:1 follow-up call with Paula to check in on your progress and problem-solve
