A leadership breakfast for anyone who fantasizes about escaping the rat race!
Have you ever wondered what life would be like if you had more freedom to do the things you want, when you want, with whom you want?
Do you quickly slap yourself in the face and say stop dreaming – get back to work?
Or even worse maybe you just tell yourself it wasn't ever possible?
When you start to look into those who have achieved what we call the Holy Grail – Financial Freedom, you quickly discover that the thing that sets the financially free apart from those who live their life chained to a salary get there because they believed it was possible.
Your first step toward financial freedom is believing it is possible!
So how does one shift their beliefs? It's easy…you just need proof that it's possible! Solid, valid evidence and experience from real life people living in the same city under the same economic climate and maybe who have even overcome some of the same stumbling blocks that could be holding you back.
Our Wake Up To Financial Freedom Breakfast is a place where you can get up close and personal with some very real and very normal everyday people who have cracked the code and made their way out of the rat race to live a life less ordinary – a life with more freedom and fun, and less busyness and less stress!
Freedom in your life really is possible, but only if you are prepared to do something different, if you do what you have always done you will get what you have always got!
Two years ago when we decided to launch The 7 Effect – FREEDOM was a huge motivator for us both! We had some pretty audacious goals in sight:
1. We only wanted to work 3 days a week (Tuesday – Thursday)
2. We wanted to spend ALL school holidays off, to travel and spend time with family and friends
3. And… we wanted to make just as much (actually, no we wanted to make MORE) money than we were currently earning (BTW - we both had 6 figure incomes at the time)
And now here we are only two years into launching our business and check out the measures:
1. 85% of our weeks we work Tuesday – Thursday
2. In the last 12 months, we enjoyed over 50% of the school holidays also on holidays!
3. And our business is close to paying us both 6 figure incomes
And we are just getting started – as we get closer and closer to the target we realise that the target can actually get bigger and bigger! Our current evolution is all about reducing how much we work for money and mastering the art of making money work for us.
The more you learn the more risks you take the more you realise that it's actually not that scary, in fact, it's really fun playing the game of life this way. They say that your network dictates your net worth and that we are all the average of the 5 people we spend the most time with.
So we want to put you in a room with some of the people we have been spending the most time with, our friends, team members, clients and advisors so you can learn for yourself, and maybe even start to believe that YES – it is actually possible to have financial freedom – even for you!
The road to Financial Freedom is paved with failure, obstacles, rejection, and fear, yet it is also paved with learning, growth, achievement, freedom and fun… your personal experience will depend mainly on which side of the road you chose to stand on most.
If you've ever entertained the idea of chasing a similar dream, then this is the event for you!
Over a delicious cooked breakfast Jodie Nevid from The 7 Effect will facilitate an "up close and personal" panel discussion with 3 truly local and completely fabulous entrepreneurs. Each of them has agreed to share their stories warts and all and give you the real truth about the good, the bad and the ugly that comes with choosing to live a life less ordinary and escape the rat race!
They each got there in their own unique way, their stories will highlight that this is not a "one size fits all" kind of journey. You need to find your own path, and learning from those who have already been down that road is the best way to get start believing it's possible.

Our Wake Up To Financial Freedom Guest Speakers are;
Naomi Nwayco a Project Management Professional™ with 20 years’ experience in Information Technology projects. After going back to work following the birth of her son in 2010, Naomi knew there had to be a better way to make a living that was flexible to her family’s needs while still fulfilling her passion for travel and Project Management.
She educated herself in “flipping houses” (buying, renovating and selling) and after much research and mustered up courage she found the first “renovator’s delight” - a 1960’s asbestos filled rabbit warren. She and her husband renovated and sold it within 2 months. Not quite within original budget, however, still a nice profit for the first project.
Their first reno created massive interest in the market with 99 people lining up to attend the first open. As a result, Naomi was asked to prepare a challenging property For Sale in the same area for some locals. Still not wanting to leave the security of her corporate job, she accepted the challenge, and enjoyed every minute of it.
Then finally in 2014 she took a leap of faith and decided to leave the corporate world behind and immerse herself in property investing full-time... She has not looked back since!
To date Naomi has “flipped” 2 properties, managed 4 pre-sale whole house renovations for clients, renovated countless bathrooms and kitchens, and renovated 3 of her own houses to increase capital growth and cash-flow. Now her and her family escape the Aussie winter every year and spend 2 months of the year living in more tropical climates like Bali.
With a focus now of property development Naomi has a passion for all things real estate, especially the creative side of property. Her advice is to, look for opportunities with what you have and what is happening around you. Just try and stop her talking about property!
Michael Simon always had a goal the be retired by the time he was 35, and he managed to slide in to home base at the age of 34. He’s the father of two beautiful girls Denver 4 and Morgan 7 and been happily married to his soul mate Rebecca for 8 years. Mike left school at 16 to become an apprentice cabinetmaker. He then went on the started his own cabinet making business 6 and 1/2 years later. With an incredible work ethic Mike made his way to success from good old fashion hard work.
Like most self employed business owners, the business soon owned him and he eventually failed because he knew nothing about business. With a true entrepreneurial spirit, he always knew there would be a way out of the rat race, he’s done all the conferences and seminars and walked on fire with Tony Robbins. His determination and faith in the dream kept his mind open and his road has been paved with business, shares, and property. In 2014 he and his wife sold up everything the owned ready to move to Fiji after putting an offer in to buy an eco island resort.
Then much to his wife Rebecca’s disgust (at the time – she loves him all the more for it now) Mike said yes to an opportunity that was presented to him by a mate. The opportunity was to join a network marketing company in the health and wellness industry. After just 7 months in the business Mike and his wife Rebecca were earning monthly incomes that supersede what most people earn in a year!
His success factor is a focus on personal development and never-ending improvement combined with determination to never become one of “those guys” in network marketing.
