Local community and connection matter, and regular walks help women build meaningful relationships that extend beyond a single conversation.
Intergenerational insight adds depth and perspective, helping participants build the capability to navigate decisions, transitions and what’s next in their careers.

When you book, tell us the career question or direction you’d like to explore.
We thoughtfully match

Walk and talk
together

Meet Our Exceptional Melbourne Mentors
Our mentors are senior executives, thought leaders, business owners, boundary pushers and achievers at the top of their fields.
Here's a few you could be walking with:
"I'm already decades in my current industry and I want to know how I can further progress in my career.
I got so much value from the morning in terms of career progression advice and life advice/inspiration in general - both from my mentor and the other mentee in my group. I now have a better idea of how to define my value proposition."
⎯ Jade, Melbourne mentee
"I need guidance in looking for my next role. I have just completed my honours degree in visual arts and I want to know how I can integrate this into my next role.
Great questions from my mentor, Leora, to help direct and guide me to consider a direction that also meets my heart. The group also felt very inclusive."
⎯ Julia, Melbourne mentee
"How to broaden my professional positioning and map out a sustainable career based on my deep and wide marketing experience?
Valuable time well spent with a highly experienced and charming C-suite marketing leader who actively listened and offered helpful advice on the importance of networking, being clear about what you’re looking for, and staying visible and open to opportunities."
⎯ Veena, Melbourne mentee
"How can I best set myself up for success in my current situation?
Today was helpful! It reiterated what I was thinking and also provided tools that I hadn't considered."
⎯ Tanya, Melbourne mentee
