“I believe the girls of Australia have fires in their bellies. I believe they are strong enough, passionate enough and determined enough to blaze a trail that leaves the world with no choice but to embrace their extraordinary talents and ideas.
BUT: I also believe that in order to do this successfully they need to develop tangible, real-world skills, which in the case of GSF.Academy, are taught by women who are doing extraordinary things in their fields.”

If you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed with school, or feeling like you're getting nothing done, I would definitely recommend this workshop to you. Tanya's techniques have significantly increased my productivity levels and time-management skills in studying and completing schoolwork and I definitely walked away from the workshop feeling more on top of things.
Having these strategies absolutely makes me feel more in control and less stressed. The ones I’m using the most are the “To Do List” and the “Quick Wins” and I also figured out my “OOS” which I’m has made such a difference!
I really enjoyed the workshop! Using the ‘10 Minute Kick’ really helps to at least get started, and I’m finding I’m getting more done than intended. I also now get more done in a shorter amount of time because I take breaks and make a list in order of priority. I feel more in control of what I have to do. You won't regret going - it really helps with being efficient in getting work done!
