Experience

Betty has worked in small and large companies throughout Australia and overseas in Hong Kong and Malaysia. She has worked in many areas ranging from vocational psychology, statistics, management consulting, adult training, and private psychological consultations. She particularly enjoys facilitating personal development programs for groups. With her passion for the work of mothers, and her love of psychology, Betty developed the Being a Mother workshop drawing on her many skills and range of experiences.

Vision

The lack of recognition of mothers work in today's society prompted Betty to develop this innovative approach to reinforce individual mother's sense of self-acceptance, and make a difference to their lives, and that of their children, family and community.

About Suzanne

Suzanne Leech is the Events Manager for the VIP Events for Mums hosted by Beingamother. She has achieved success in the event and marketing fields in organizing national conferences, and events focused on businesses, themes and social events. Suzanne also has over 12 years experience in retail management in fashion and accessories, business development and store design.

Suzanne traded meetings, conferences, recruiting and continual business activities with nappies, feeding, sleep deprivation and the excitement and challenges of watching her child grow up. This “new job” made Suzanne ask: “Why shouldn’t mothers get together, have meetings, share ideas in their new jobs as mothers?”  She wanted to create a greater sense of awareness and importance of supporting mothers within the community.   

Suzanne wants to ensure that by bringing mothers together it will allow them to have some time totally focused on them.  It’s about being a mother and allowing them to relax, support one another, reflect and share their motherhood experiences with each other.
