iThrive Connect
The room where leaders deepen perspective, sharpen their decisions, and lead with greater confidence
Running a business can be exhilarating - and profoundly isolating. The higher you climb, the fewer people truly understand the weight of the decisions you carry.
iThrive Connect was built to change that.
Offered complimentary as an investment in the local business community, it brings together a carefully curated group of non-competing business owners, CEO's and senior leaders once a month - in a structured, and confidential setting. Not a networking breakfast. Not a seminar. A genuine peer group - where you connect with your community, share real experience, and get the support to solve whats actually holding you back.

Connect
NETWORKING WITH PURPOSE
Share
Build trusted and meaningful relationships with fellow business owners and leaders who carry the same level of responsibility, ambition, and decision-making pressure. iThrive Connect creates a community of people who genuinely want to see each other succeed - not just exchange business cards.
REAL STORIES. REAL LESSONS
Hear directly from like-minded professionals about how they've navigated the challenges you're facing right now - from scaling and cash flow, to culture, leadership, and difficult decisions. Every session surfaces practical wisdom drawn from real experience that you can apply immediately
Support
PROBLEM SOLVING. ISSUE RESOLUTION
Bring your live challenges to the table and tap into the collective experience of your peers. Whether its a strategic decision, an operational headache, or a people problem - you'll leave with perspectives, options, and honest input you couldn't get anywhere else.
WHO'S IN THE ROOM?
A community of credible, committed leaders
iThrive Connect brings together a deliberately diverse mix of non-competing business owners and senior executives, different industries, complementary experience, and a shared commitment to share and support.
Business Owners & Founders
Entrepreneurs running established businesses who want peer accountability and an honest strategic sounding board.
Senior Executives
GMs and senior leaders navigating complex organisations, teams and stakeholder landscapes
CEO's & Managing Directors
Senior leaders carrying the weight of the top chair who benefit most from peers who truly understand the role and responsibilities.
Growth-Stage Leaders
Operators scaling trough inflection points - where the right connections and conversations accelerate everything.
EVENT CADENCE
Mark the third Tuesday of every month
iThrive Connect meets monthly at one of the Illawarra's most welcoming venues - the Lounge Bar at Towradgi Beach Hotel - 5pm - 6:30pm. A deliberate choice: a setting that feels like a conversation among peers, not a corporate event.
​
Sessions are structured but informal, facilitated by an experienced iThrive coach to ensure every gathering is purposeful, productive, and genuinely worth your time.

​
The community is currently focused on leaders across the Illawarra, with plans to expand iThrive Connect into Sydney during 2026 as the network grows.
