MEET MICHELLE

Founder and Director

Michelle is the Founder and Director of The Aspire Series, including the Aspire Société, Aspire Summit and 55 FACES. She is an author, recognised leader and international speaker dedicated to pioneering social change and impact as well as teaching her methodology in helping women to facilitate change, both in their communities and globally. 

Michelle has a comprehensive career spanning over fifteen years in the challenging Australian Child Protection and community sectors.

Her life's work, living legacy and the Aspire movement has ultimately been about making sure that we all have our words seen, heard and felt, to know that they matter and account for something far greater than our own existence. This aligns beautifully with Michelle's passion in providing spaces of possibility, opportunity and support- the best kind for brewing co-creation.

CREATE CHANGE

ARE YOU HERE FOR THE HIGHER SOLUTIONS?

We get to choose how we want to live and be of service. WE decide which direction change takes. Our stories and lived experiences most often hold our "why".

The Aspire Series is the bearer of a set of guiding principles that make it easy to have a PHENOMENAL impact, far exceeding your imagination and stretching your ideas beyond what you believe is possible. 

The best bit... you already have what you need to create truly meaningful change. Together, we bring this to the surface and make sure that it is seen, felt and heard exactly where you know it is needed.

ASPIRE SOCIÉTÉ  

6 - 12 MONTHS + DEEP IMPACT

WRITE YOUR STORY AND GET IT PUBLISHED

LEAD YOUR OWN CHANGE PROJECT

SHOWCASE IT AT THE ASPIRE SUMMIT

In The Société we are leading it!! Change is OURS and it belongs to our communities because we have decided upon it.

An association of women with a common purpose; we've signed up for BIG transformation by leading the way, radically shifting the view we hold of ourselves in the world and bringing those we care most about along for the ride.

Tuned in, connected to the most powerful expression of your story, your expanded version of self will be facilitating the change that your heart beats to experience.

The highlight, getting on the stage twice at The Summit- once to share about your project, and the second time when you graduate from The Société.

How AMAZING is this already?

 

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SOCIÉTÉ EXPERIENCE

“We all contain a story, a unique expression of ourselves and a vehicle to bring this to the world. This is your chance to be one of a unique collective of women who are all dedicated to sharing this same journey together.”    

~ Michelle Gardiner

ASPIRE SUMMIT

4.5 DAYS IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE + CO-CREATION 

IMAGINE women gathering from around the world, each with real stories and a strong desire to lead and create change. This is where your community, your work in the world, and you as the facilitator meet other women who are there for the same purpose. What could be possible when we are all together, sharing our desire to bring much better to the world and jamming over how to bring it into reality?  

The Summit is a three day, in person, immersive experience filled with speakers, presentations and workshops, led by our community and designed to expand your capacity to lead change. Simply put, it should NOT be missed!

As we speak and share, new ideas will land, collaborations formed and magic will reveal itself. 

The Summit will host our 55 FACES book launch, hold cultural activities and the greatest part- the Gala Evening- where our Aspire Société graduates are formally recognised and celebrated, and our awards for exceptional women leading change and impact projects, announced, celebrated and formally recognised.  

The Summit will be hosted in Bali- the Island of Gods, one of the most beautiful places on Earth, coming soon in 2024.
