KIND WORDS

  • Such a great weekend, surrounded by kind, warm hearted, inspirational rural women all with their own stories to tell. An inclusive and engaging event, great for networking and meeting new people. Catering was delicious, guest speakers were all fantastic with a great range of interesting topics. Jackie did an incredible job organizing the weekend, she should be very proud of what she has achieved.

  • I've struggled to put into words the energised feeling I had over the RWD weekend. It was a feeling I haven't felt for a long time and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I realised on the drive home that it was the feeling of true 'connection'. After the years we have had being disconnected with each other the feeling wasn't at first familiar, but boy did it feel good! Can we do it again please?

  • This event truly exceeded all my expectations...It made me proud to be a rural woman; so much love and inspiration in the room.

  • I came away from the Rural Women's Day event with such warmth and a full heart. It was amazing to make new connections, and further expand others that had only been online until then! This event is an absolute gem for rural and regional Australia.

  • The RWD Weekend was a delicious blend of connection, inspiration, storytelling, learning, meeting amazing women and we were looked after incredibly well. Thank you!

  • A very inspiring line up of speakers. Every speaker left you with so much more to think about! A great venue, fabulous food and great company! A fantastic day thank you Jackie!

  • There were a great number of people leaving the event saying their heart was full and their cup was overflowing; I was one of them! Rural Women's Day weekend provided the perfect relaxing, supportive and motivational environment for women to come together and celebrate each other and network to build many connections.

  • I had the best time at RWD and I'm so glad I decided to 'just do it' and buy a ticket. The lineup of speakers was fabulous and every one was engaging and interesting. I came away so inspired and validated by the whole event. I think living on a farm it can be hard to appreciate there are others in a similar situation to you as you can't see it, and I was so grateful for the opportunity to spend a weekend with like minded others.
