Hi there. I’m Suzi Dafnis, CEO at HerBusiness. My BIG passion is helping women business owners to grow and scale their business, so that they can create their ideal lifestyle and make a difference in the world. Every day I am inspired by the more than 30,000 amazing women (and men!) in our community and I love finding the best education, mentors, and resources from around the globe, to help them get the skills, knowledge, and support they need to succeed. It’s been my privilege to lead HerBusiness (formerly The Australian Businesswomen’s Network) for the past 23 years (two+ decades – WOW!) because, whilst I’ve enjoyed success in business, I’ve also experienced the highs and the lows – sometimes you can feel on top of the world and in control and other times you can feel isolated, exhausted and stuck. What has made the biggest difference for me has always been having great people around me and having a lifelong commitment to learning. That’s why I am so passionate about the work we do here at HerBusiness – providing a Connection Network for women in business to get the mentors, contacts, referrals, knowledge, and skills they need to grow their confidence, make more money, build their businesses, expand their network and create the lives they love. My entrepreneurial journey started in the spare room of my Sydney apartment in 1994 when my business partner and I started a boutique events company that represented speakers and authors from the USA, here in Australia. Over the years I’ve grown multiple multi-million dollar businesses in the events, publishing and education niches – with teams in Australia, New Zealand, and the USA. Not everything has worked and there has been a degree of trial and error, and a lot of bumps in the road. But I have always had a strong commitment to always surrounding myself with great mentors and like-minded peers – a Connection Network that I can depend on and who can depend on me to be there for them too. I truly do what I love, every day.

About the guest(s)

Angela Counsel

Angela Counsel

For many women the thought of menopause scares them but it is my mission to educate women on the magic of menopause and to support them as they transition through their peri-menopause to menopause stage of life. As a naturopath for the past 16 years I have worked with many women to help them look and feel great and about 8 years ago I realised that there was something missing – the emotional aspect of healing.  This lead me to add kinesiology to my toolkit to help women. I offer a holistic solution to some common symptoms that women experience as they grow older. Every woman’s journey through peri-menopause and beyond is different this means that there is no single solution that will help everyone.  I create a personalised health and lifestyle plan which is designed to take women on their own journey to embracing their inner wisdom. I love working with women and being their guide as they discover themselves and create the life of their dreams. As well as being a naturopath and kinesiologist I am also the author of a book called Secret Mums Business, a Speaker, Women’s Circle Space Holder and Retreat Facilitator.  I am currently learning more about shamanic healing and love sharing the healing magic of my medicine drum with women.
