A collaboration between Six Degrees, Dear Daughter and Eva Wealth

PlacesLimited to 50 women

There comes a point when

something begins to shift

From the outside, life may look full. But internally, the questions start getting louder.

Is this still what I want? What comes next? Who am I now, beyond the roles I've been holding for everyone else?

For many women, this season arrives quietly. It may come through career fatigue, children growing up, a long-held identity no longer fitting, or simply a sense that the life you've built no longer reflects the woman you are becoming.

If that resonates, you are not alone. The Next Chapter has been created for exactly this moment.

"This is for the women in the messy middle the women rethinking, recalibrating, rebuilding or beginning again."

Sound Familiar?

Is this still what I want?

What comes next?

Who am I now, beyond the roles I've been holding for everyone else?

You do not need to have a plan.

You simply need to recognise that something in you is shifting.

Who It's For

Women standing at
some kind of threshold

  • Questioning the career you once worked hard to build

  • Feeling the pull towards something new, but not yet knowing what it is

  • Navigating children growing up or leaving home

  • Redefining success on your own terms

  • Craving more meaning, alignment or momentum

  • Ready to reconnect with the woman beyond the doing, carrying and managing

  • Longing to be somewhere where you don't have to explain that feeling to anyone

What to Expect

intention, warmth and depth

Meet your keynote speaker & Headline partner

Headline Partner & Keynote Speaker

Gilly Ridley Whittle

Founder, Peachaus

We are proud to announce Gilly Ridley Whittle of Peachaus as our Headline Partner and Keynote Speaker.

Peachaus is a women's wellness and bra fitting brand transforming comfort, confidence and breast health. Sitting between fashion and healthcare, Peachaus brings expert bra fitting services and light as air, ethically designed products into workplaces and communities, helping women feel better in their bodies through education, connection and comfort.

Gillian Ridley Whittle spent decades at the top of global retail — Marks & Spencer, Topshop, Target, Myer Australia — before walking away to build something that truly mattered.

Founding Peachaus, and through fitting hundreds of women, she uncovered a widespread but rarely addressed issue: the real damage caused by badly fitting bras. What began as a purpose-led brand evolved into a women's wellness and bra fitting service driven by one fierce conviction — the garment designed to support a woman should never cause her pain.

She's not just building a brand. She's building a movement.
