Hon. Kim O’Keeffe MP opens the 2026 WISE Webinar Series with a powerful session titled “Break the Cycle of Overthinking: Claim Your Potential and Say Yes to Opportunities.”​ Drawing from her journey from her humble beginnings in Shepparton to leadership in business, local government and now the Victorian State Parliament, Kim’s journey reflects resilience, courage and a deep commitment to community impact. If you have ever hesitated, doubted your readiness or over-analysed your next move, this webinar will challenge you to step forward with clarity and confidence.

In this engaging session, Robyn Baker presents “The Connection Currency™: Why Trust Beats Tactics Every Time.”​ Through powerful insights and real world experiences, Robyn highlights how trust and authentic relationships are essential to meaningful leadership and sustainable success. She explores why genuine connection is often more impactful than strategies alone, and how building trust can open doors to deeper collaboration, influence and opportunity. This session encourages participants to reflect on how they build relationships in both their professional and personal lives, and how leading with authenticity can create stronger communities, partnerships and long term impact. Robyn’s message reminds us that when trust becomes the foundation, connection becomes the catalyst for growth.
