Caroline McGuinness asks W.H.Y on Big Brekkie





For Caroline Mc Guinness, it was personally devastating to read about yet another death resulting from family violence here in Australia. Her heartbreaking response every time a new report of a death, was...WHY? This became the name of this campaign 'W.H.Y'. We wanted as many victims/survivors and their extended family, friends, and the community to know - 'WE HEAR YOU'. Even though we may not see you behind closed doors at home during lockdown or hear you because of the masks we all need to wear, we are here for you. Caroline is my special guest this morning around 8.30am..Not one to miss.

We set out to take one small step at a time, by hosting online family violence themed awareness events in collaboration with various guest speakers, including victim/survivors, advocates, charities (Impact for Women & The National Homeless Collective), and supportive partner organisations such as, eSafety Women, Legally Yours and Trans Sisters United, as well as the support of the Victorian Hon. Minister for Women, Prevention of Family Violence, and Aboriginal Affairs, Gabrielle Williams.

Empowering Leading Women is a community of passionate women, connecting to learn, and grow through a series of unique personal story events and creative coaching workshops in order to empower and inspire hope, and to nurture personal growth in their lives to achieve social change.

Empowering Leading Women was formed out of Caroline’s passion, fundamentally to transform, support and nurture each woman's self-worth and her true potential by empowering, inspiring her through educating, utilising coaching principles and shared stories, and then for her to lead by example to be a community advocate as a social change agent in our society.

Caroline’s background as a qualified Social Worker has provided her with a wealth of expertise in human behaviour, trauma, and attachment, including highly proficient engagement and assessment skills. After taking a brave leap of faith and transitioning from a successful professional government employee to a self-employed Professional Coaching Consultant & Facilitator, Caroline combines her innovation and creativity to think outside the box, with her clear vision and desire to impact social change, by creating a supportive society one small step at a time.
