Changing the landscape for women with Gynaecological, Sexual and related Mental Health Issues
GAIN Inc is joining forces with King Edward Memorial Hospital for Women in 2013 to present a series of seminars. Check out the details on the flyer. To book, phone the number on the flier.
These seminars will be very interactive, with the opportunity to ask questions and you won’t believe what you will GAIN out of it.
I am chasing some money to publish a GYN and Sexual Health Awareness book that I can put into anyone’s hands and they can become more aware of the risks, symptoms and stories of women who have lived with GYN conditions.If you know someone who knows someone who is looking for an opportunity to invest into the future of women and the community (because GYN and Sexual Health has a rippled effect on both men and women in the community), please ask them to contact Hayley Solich, my management agent.
The booklet will be made available through my website and I will be taking them around the globe with me to conferences and events. It’s a great opportunity for a sponsor to have their brand displayed.
The feel of the book is going to be easy to read, lots of funky colours and images, with tips on how to support someone with a particular condition, thought provoking questions, interesting facts and figures, awareness promotion about communication, interacting with medical practitioners and the like. It’s purpose is to break down the stigmas associated with GYN and Sexual Health and to pave the way for a more open communication and provide support options to the community.
I’d also like to include useful references, so if you have read a book that was particularly good or know an organisation that is doing great work, please pop me a comment below with the details.
Much appreciated.

I am so thrilled to have been awarded the WA Senior of the Year 2012 award today. Wow, what an honour. I was so excited to be able to get GYN and Sexual Health Awareness on the board with the broader community. I’m hoping that those gathered will help me to pull it all together.
Here are some pics from the event…
I am so excited to be featured on the front of online magazine, Golden Pen. The issue is on the theme of Resilience and Hayley Solich, Publishing Editor, has covered both my story, International GYN Awareness Day, GAIN Inc and GAIN’s Ambassador, Perth Lord Mayor, Hon Lisa Scaffidi.
Special thanks to the Golden Pen Magazine team for this honour and for helping me to spread my message. Here is a preview of the article. You can pick up a copy from the Golden Pen Magazine website. It’s a great magazine full of inspirational stories, so check it out.
What a momentous occasion to be gather at KEMH and be part of a historic moment when women gathered outside the hospital to create a greater level of awareness of women’s GYN and Sexual Health awareness.
