Rise Ireland Leadership Conference 27th-28th March 2026
Designed for you to grow !
You are invited to our brilliant, interactive Rise Ireland Women's Leadership Conference.
This specially tailored event is designed to equip, resource and empower female leaders (and emerging female leaders) to develop and grow. As leaders we need to be lifelong learners and we have much to glean from one another, our sessions will inspire, provoke thought and equip you!
JO HARGREAVES IS SPEAKING
Jo is a pastor, psychotherapist, writer, speaker, wife and mother. She is passionate about integrating theology and therapy, scripture and neuroscience and placing God right in the centre of our conversations on mental health and wholeness. As leaders it is vital that we are not only taking care of others well but that we also know how to take care of ourselves well. Jo is going to unpack some incredible tools to equip and enable us to be on this journey of leadership for the long haul.
Jo writes under the name The Faith Filled Therapist writing for various mental health and well-being blogs as well as sharing regular content on her Instagram. Jo loves people and her hope and prayer is that her words will not only meet you exactly where you are at but help you to grow healthily in every aspect of your life but especially leadership.
