THE BRUNCH CLUB PRESENTS ASHLEIGH CONWELL – JUNE 2026

I'm Ashleigh Conwell. Triplet mum, widow, CEO, founder, keynote speaker & podcaster passionate about helping women own their stories & embrace resilience.

Life often writes plot twists we would never choose. For me, 2020 brought unimaginable loss and pain: the sudden passing of my husband while pregnant with triplets, the death of my father-in-law and beloved granddad, a traumatic ordeal in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit - all amid a global pandemic and an unrelenting media storm.

But I refused to let these tragedies define me and found a way to create joy, even in the darkest chapters of her life. I speak candidly about navigating grief, trauma and public scrutiny, sharing practical ways women can take control of their stories, embrace their inner strength and live fully - even when it feels impossible. I speak with vulnerability, wisdom, and humour, to leave audiences feeling uplifted and equipped with tools to write the next chapter of their lives with intention and joy. To not just survive, but thrive.

The Brunch Club Events

The Brunch Club is the ultimate brunch event for people in business – think TEDx talks over delicious food and drinks. Come and join others just like you in a fabulous casual environment ✨, learn more about the topics you love from guest speakers who are leaders in their field 👸🏻. Have a cheeky beverage 🍹, plenty of laughs and win prizes over our favourite meal of the day – brunch!

The Brunch Club is a strictly no sales, no business cards, no pressure networking event. While I encourage you to meet new people, have a great time and expand your knowledge base – this is the event to come to if you’re sick of 30 second spiels and having business cards forced upon you. I want everyone who comes along to feel comfortable, supported and welcomed! 💕 When you meet a fabulous person that you’d like to connect or collaborate with, forget the business card and be a little creative. Why not take a selfie together and text each other, add each other on social media, swap emails, or tag each other in stories – think outside the box 📦

Each month I’ll be hosting a new speaker to come and share their knowledge with The Brunch Club, where you can feel free to ask questions and get involved in the conversation.

💁🏻‍♀️ To make the most of our time together, I’ve put together the menu options for you to pre-order your delicious meal when you book your ticket. 🥞
