About the Event
Tash Rigby’s journey from a young soccer player in Margaret River to leading Perth Glory through six seasons as captain is a powerful story of growth, resilience, and self-discovery. Now the Manager of Women’s Football at Football West, Tash has learned that embracing vulnerability and authenticity are her greatest leadership traits. But her path hasn’t been without challenges – Tash will openly share her experience with anxiety and imposter syndrome and how her support network played a crucial role in helping her lead with confidence and authenticity.
Leadership coach Monica Beazley, who brings years of experience in elite sports, corporate leadership, and mentorship, will lead this conversation. Monica’s expertise in supporting female athletes and leaders makes her the perfect person to discuss the importance of vulnerability and mental well-being in leadership, both on and off the field.
Why You Should Attend
This event is for anyone passionate about women’s leadership, football, or mental health. You’ll hear firsthand how Tash Rigby transformed personal challenges into leadership strengths, and you’ll leave with practical tools for building your own confidence, managing mental well-being, and embracing vulnerability in both personal and professional life.
While Gaining Ground WA is hosting this event, Women Onside is proud to support and spread the word about this incredible opportunity to learn from two inspiring women in sport. With Kerry Harris providing opening remarks, the evening promises to be full of empowering messages for women in football.
Spaces are limited, so don’t miss the chance to attend!
