513 Turning Invisible Work into Visible Leadership with Sarah Perugia

Coach and facilitator Sarah Perugia explores the realities of mid-career and midlife for women, from hormonal shifts and career pauses to the often unseen weight of emotional labour at home and within organisations. Sarah unpacks how bias, internalised beliefs and unequal systems continue to shape women's experiences, and why redefining success on your own terms matters more than ever. Through clarifying values and reconnecting with purpose, Sarah shares how women can move from feeling stretched and overlooked to truly flourishing. Sarah provides an invitation to pause, reflect on what you need and intentionally design a life that honours both your ambitions and your wellbeing. Passionate about supporting women on a mission, Sarah is turning invisible work into visible leadership. KEY TAKEAWAY "The thing that's exhausting them is 'invisible work'.
