Last year we conducted a hugely popular webinar series with a focus on wellbeing and ways to respond personally and professionally to current conditions facing rural and regional Queensland.
This was a FREE program open to everyone – men, women, children, families and anyone in business.
It was such an amazingly successful event we are bringing it back again!
Here’s what the Rising Beyond Now cohort enjoyed last year!

About Bec Fing
Rebecca Fing is the Founder and Managing Director of House Paddock Training and Consulting based in Goondiwindi. A wife, mum, a susie-homemaker-wanna-be-gardener, side hustler and country girl through and through.
Bec established House Paddock in 2005 and has since been helping industries, groups, businesses and individuals manage their business, their people, their projects, their safety and most importantly… themselves! This has been through the training and workshop delivery, one on one coaching and mentoring, project management and facilitation.
Helping business owners, managers and up-and-comers be more personally effective – ie get their shit together – is a huge priority for Bec. This interest came from the acknowledgement that one of the barriers to personal and business growth and effectiveness was the actual conduct of the people running the show! Actually planning for outcomes and having the tools and habits to get the job done! Bec has helped over 400 people improve their time management and personal effectiveness through workshops and coaching and truly believes that we really can “have it all”… if we have the know-how, a plan and put it into action.

Your Network is Support! – Mapping Your Network Exercise
7:00 pm Tuesday 31 August 2021
Julia Spicer
Julia Spicer is the founder of Engage & Create Consulting and is a passionate and engaging presenter who during the webinar will discuss the importance of networks for life, support and business.
A note on networking… Networking does not have to be a scary thing! It is a great way to collaborate and form good partnerships. A network can provide Information, Referrals, Support, greater Access to resources and opportunities for Collaboration. Think about your current networks for a moment, and ask yourself these questions:
- Are there any gaps?
- Do these networks link to my goals / priorities?
- How can I expand my networks?
- How am I using them?
- Do I need to ‘ditch’ any?
- Who is there for you?
- What is your reach and theirs?
- When you think about networking, what springs to mind?
- If someone comes to you for support, what do you do?
- What do you need support with at the moment? How does anyone know?
