SLP 334: Make Someone Smile with Michelle Hamer

‘That to me is part of the community. It’s about making someone smile. And if you can make someone smile, I think that helps every day. It helps everyone do what they do in their day. We forget to smile. We are so focused on either looking at the phone, or what’s going on, or thinking about something but when did we last just take a walk or smile? So, every day now I go for a walk along the beach, and I always take a photo. That photo doesn’t have to be of the ocean. This morning’s photo was three different coloured bougainvillea’s, together. But it means to me that you are looking at what’s around you. And that’s part of being in that community, you are looking at what’s going on around you.’ ~ Michelle Hamer Michelle Hamer is passionate about improving productivity and encouraging change that adds value. To facilitate improvement in her clients’ businesses, Michelle provides education, assessment, enablement, and optimisation utilising clients’ software applications. Michelle subscribes to the mantra ‘everything is possible’ and practices an engaging style that integrates business, education, and information technology knowledge. Her hands on, down to earth approach not only ensures that her clients and their team are comfortable with and fully engaged in the change process, but her approach also assists in empowering colleagues she mentors within her client base, the various not-for-profit teams she works with, and start-up businesswomen. Over the last 25 years Michelle has grown a strong global network of clients and contacts, assisting businesses at all levels. Her client list includes large law firms such as Dentons, King & Wood Mallesons (KWM), Minter Ellison, Australian Government Solicitor (AGS), as well as organisations such as Icon Group and the Sunshine Coast Council (SCC), to name just a few. Her definition of Self Love is self-awareness. You’ve got to be checking in with yourself and watching those triggers. You cannot give to other things unless you are in touch with yourself. Her favourite quote is from Sandra Bullock: “The rule is – you have to dance a little bit in the morning before you leave the house because it changes the way you walk out in the world.” Links to follow: Website: https://smartlearning.com.au/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/smartlearningbymichellehamer/ X: https://twitter.com/michellehamersl Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-hamer-63844/?originalSubdomain=au You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/@smartlearningbymichellehamer Quotes: I thank my parents for bringing me to the Sunshine Coast. I said, ‘Sure, I can do that!’ I was on the cusp of a personal computer to PC and that is where I came into my own. You’ve got to apply your business skills to the technology and create an a-ha moment for the client. I love Brisbane and love visiting that city to walk Southbank. I love coming to people and asking, ‘How can I help you?’ I have been taught to say yes until you find the next perfect piece. I have had a great career working in law firms. Giving back to our community is very important to us. We love helping people. If you can make someone smile that makes your day. Every so often you need to take a break. Walk on the beach, water gives you energy. I struggle like everyone else does. What is the trigger to cause low moments? What’s the evidence. Pick it up Princess and get back into the game. Be kind to yourself. There is no balance life is a pendulum that keeps going. Professionalism drives me. We have one mouth and two ears, use them wisely. Dance a little in the morning before you leave it changes the way you see the world. I love helping people use Microsoft.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.
