The morning will include some of Australia’s most sought after guest speakers in business and health. The theme of the breakfast is to inspire you to pursue your dreams and passions no matter the direction or scale, along with the benefits of leading a healthy/active lifestyle.

With no tertiary education or previous business experience, she has turned the triumph over her own weight loss and health struggles into a multi-million dollar business and to date has sold in excess of 2.5 million self-published cookbooks. Annette’s cookbooks, ‘Symply Too Good To Be True’, are full of delicious, guilt-free family favourite recipes and have been the No. 1 low-fat choice in Australia over the past 11 years.
