Motherhood is often described as the most rewarding job in the world. And it is, but it can also be the hardest.
The sleepless nights, the endless responsibilities and the constant push and pull between family and work can leave even the strongest of us feeling stretched thin.
In this issue, journalist Linda Hooper catches up with two remarkable local women, Philippa Scott and Liz Teece, who know that struggle all too well. Both have faced immense challenges in their personal and professional lives, yet each has found a way to not only cope but to thrive, building businesses and communities that support other women along the way.
As a mum of three grown children, I still remember the juggle well. Those early years of trying to do everything, often without asking for help, are etched in my memory.
What stories such as those of Philippa and Liz remind us is that while the juggle is real, so, too, is the strength we find in ourselves – and in the villages we build around us. Most importantly, they remind us to be kinder to ourselves as mothers, partners, professionals and women. Because the truth is, we can’t pour from an empty cup.
Until next week, happy reading.

The state government is reinforcing its zero-tolerance approach to drugs but has found opposition from groups including AMA Qld.
Some services or trials remain in place in the ACT, Victoria and NSW.
Queensland was the first state to establish a fixed pill-testing strategy by the ALP. Opposition members are condemning the state backflip.
“The benefits of pill testing are life saving,” Opposition Health spokesperson Shannon Fentiman says.
“That is not me saying that as a politician. It is Queensland’s peak medical body.
“Those opposite would not know because they refuse to listen to the experts, just as they refuse to listen to those with lived experience.”
The Australian Medical Association of Queensland opposes the ban and warns it could put lives at risk.
“We are disappointed with the government’s move to ban pill testing,” AMA Queensland president Nick Yim says.
“Pill testing provides an opportunity for individuals to have a conversation with a health professional about their drug use.
A major airline is set to allow small pets in its cabins on some flights, including to the Sunshine Coast.
Virgin Australia will become the first airline in the country to welcome pets on board, with its highly anticipated pets service officially going on sale.
The Australian-first service will initially launch as a trial on flights between Melbourne and the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast, with the inaugural flight scheduled to take off from Melbourne on October 16.
Queensland has become the first Australian state to ban pill testing, with medical experts warning the move could cost lives.
The legal crackdown follows state government moves to scrap $1.5 million in public funding for services run by CheQpoint pill-testing sites: one in Brisbane and the other on the Gold Coast. This will force services to close in April.
The ban, passed in state parliament recently, makes any pill-testing operations illegal.
“The Crisafulli Government has a
zero-tolerance approach to illicit drugs,” Health Minister Tim Nicholls says.
“I want to make it absolutely clear that there is no safe way to take illegal drugs, and this government does not support publicly or privately funded pill testing.
“Drug-checking services send the wrong message to Queenslanders.”
Pill testing, also known as drug checking, is the chemical analysis of illicit or unknown substances to inform the owner of the contents of the pill.
Australia’s first pill-testing trial was held in 2018 at the Groovin’ the Moo Festival in Canberra.
“As doctors, we are concerned we’ll see an increase in presentations to our emergency departments, particularly in the upcoming summer festival season, where we know people may use drugs.”
CheQpoint operator Loop Australia CEO Cameron Francis says the ban is a backward step.
“The government has no plan to address our spiralling overdose crisis, which now claims more lives than the state’s road toll,” he says.
“Our service was ready to operate without government funding.
“For the government to outlaw it through legislation is a short-sighted move that will cost lives.”

Since announcing in March last year its intention to launch pets-in-cabin flights, Virgin has collaborated with international airlines already operating similar services, consulted closely with animal welfare organisations and accessibility groups, and addressed feedback from frequent travellers. It aims to develop a service that prioritises animal welfare and guest comfort.
Virgin will use the trial to capture important customer insights and feedback before planning a broader rollout of the service across its domestic network next year.
Virgin Australia Group CEO Dave Emerson says the airline is thrilled to sell Australia’s first pets-in-cabin flights: “Our guests have been telling us for years how much they want to travel alongside their pets and now they finally can.”

Delivering for Queensland
Thousands of working mothers in Australia are at breaking point, trying to juggle children and work, as well as maintain a healthy relationship with their partners. We speak to two award-winning mums who have turned their stories of adversity into triumph. WORDS: Linda Hooper.
When Philippa Scott’s husband Trevor recently asked her who the most important person in her life was, she had no hesitation in saying “me”.
It’s taken many years of traumatic experiences and health challenges, followed by a period of self-discovery and education, for Philippa to accept this huge mindset shift. Now, she’s running a successful business called Fantastic Futures, helping mums to understand that self-care isn’t selfish – it’s sacred.
The daughter of a preacher, Philippa grew up believing that to be of value, she needed to fill her life with acts of service. She attended 15 schools in 13 years and was also home-schooled for four years.
“I made friends easily but there was never any stability for long-term friendships,” Philippa says.
“When you’re the minister’s daughter, there’s a huge amount of expectation. So, I left home when I was 16 because the pressure was too much.”
Life did not get any easier, however.
“When my boyfriend was 17, he committed suicide,” Philippa adds.
Later, she experienced what is referred to as ‘obstetric violence’ during the births
of her first and second children. It galvanised her into advocating for better birth choices and she started a consumer group called Friends of the Birth Centre Townsville in 2003. The centre officially opened in 2008 and is still operational today. Philippa is now the National coordinator of Homebirth Australia.
In addition to her own maternal struggles, Philippa says she experienced years of burnout: “For mums it’s even worse because we are supposed to work like we don’t have children, and parent like we don’t have a job.”
Philippa was in a high-pressure role, working 50 hours a week as a business manager for a leading automotive dealer, when she was diagnosed with adrenal fatigue.
“I had four children and was studying for a degree in sociology. I had been so busy for so long that my brain was foggy. I went to my doctor and said, ‘I don’t know what’s happening but I’m just not okay’.”
He recommended that Philippa take three months off work.
“That was not possible, so I looked for a different job and discovered Judith Richards who created The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP),” Philippa says.
“Within two weeks of completing the
therapeutic sessions, my whole nervous system had reset and returned to ‘calm’. I started working for Judith, onboarding practitioners to do TRTP training. I quickly trained in it myself.”
Philippa says most people have never experienced ‘calm’.
“Even as children we are raced from activity to activity, never being still and at peace. We never lie on the back lawn anymore. We’re so busy entertaining our
children, keeping our houses Instagram worthy and being on performing mode.”
She says the statistics are shocking: “In the deaths that occur in the first 12 months of having a baby, 24 per cent is maternal suicide and that says to me that those women have an emotional load that is too heavy for one person.”
Philippa is not only the founder of Fantastic Futures but also The Mother Awakening: a movement helping women
heal the root causes behind stress, shutdown and reactive parenting. She incorporates TRTP therapy into her own program: The Regulated Mother Method.
“It’s a complete nervous system transformation for mothers and families, which includes an online, nine-module parenting course with easy activities to do during the week. It’s not teaching people how to change nappies: it’s about relationship parenting, connection, communication, behaviour and the tools you need to be an authentic parent that’s right for you.”
She also has a podcast called The Family Architect and a community space to support it with two live sessions each month when participants can ask questions and access resources.
Philippa’s work has been recognised nationally and she was a finalist in this year’s AusMumpreneur Awards, earning an Honourable Mention in the Women Changing the World category.
“It’s nice to be recognised for what you’re doing but for me, it’s about acknowledging that mothers do matter and that the work we do today impacts future generations in a positive way.”

‘BUILDING A VILLAGE’ OF SUPPORT WAS A GODSEND FOR LIZ
In 2017, Liz Teece, of Nambour, had the world at her feet.
She was co-owner of Northpoint Photos: a successful and fast-growing photographic business specialising in childcare photography. The business had a full diary of work, a stable staff team and strong systems and procedures.
The time was right for Liz and her husband Justin to start a family. Liz fell pregnant easily, with a due date of January 2018. Everything was going according to plan, but the first big hurdle was just around the corner.
“Weeks before giving birth, half my workforce resigned quite unexpectedly,” Liz recalls. “The timing presented a huge challenge as we had wrapped up our shooting for the year, which didn’t allow me the opportunity to train any new staff members. In our line of work, on-the-job training is extremely important.”
Suddenly, Liz was facing the reality of having to be operational almost
immediately after giving birth.
“Any first-time mother can attest to that being terrifying and extremely emotional, as I had a very clear picture of the type of mother I wanted to be. I worked hard – and quickly – to hire new staff, and flew my business partner Jacqui Piggott, from North Queensland, to help train, so they could hit the ground running once shooting began in 2018.”
The second hurdle arrived on the day they brought their daughter Eleanor home from hospital.
“My husband, who was a graduate paramedic at the time, was offered a permanent position with Queensland Ambulance. However, he would be based in Toowoomba, meaning he would now live away five days a week. This limited my support at home significantly and I had to find a way to make my world function.
“As an extremely proud woman, asking for help was difficult. I had to get comfortable asking for it. This meant
asking for help from family and consulting a psychologist to find my way through some of the tougher moments.
“I also employed a nanny to help with Eleanor and support me at home, allowing me hands-free time to be there for Northpoint Photos.”
Liz credits “building a village of people” to help her survive the first year after Eleanor’s birth: “It was filled with challenges. However, it was the meal being dropped off by a friend, my mum and dad driving in the middle of the night
“As an extremely proud woman, asking for help was difficult. I had to get comfortable asking for it”
to walk the hall with Eleanor so I could sleep, and the Sunday family dinners where I could hang out with my family.
“It was also the amazing and compassionate staff I employed that year to give me those much-needed days to figure out how to be a mum and business owner.”
Three years later, Liz had daughter Harriet. This time, she felt more equipped to cope. She trained her nanny to also work in the business and built an office and workshop at home.
Some challenges remain. Justin is still stationed in Toowoomba and has been on the transfer list to the Sunshine Coast for the past four years. They remain hopeful that he will be transferred soon.
Meanwhile, the business is thriving. Liz recently won the award for Sustainable Business Woman of the Year at the 2025 Sunshine Coast Business Woman of the Year Awards.
“I couldn’t be prouder of what we are building at Northpoint Photos – and the fact my children get to be a part of it, well that’s the icing on the cake,” she says.

Coast band is already making waves in the music industry after releasing first single and gaining plenty of stage cred.
Atrio of young Sunshine Coast musicians is hitting all the right notes in the world of alternative rock.
As part of Australia’s newest generation of stage shredders, Wave Raiders haven’t taken long to graduate from their first show at Caloundra RSL
to stages across the country. Made up of brothers Pete and Tom and good friend Jayden, the boys range in age from 13 to 15. My Weekly Preview asked the band members all about their journey, riding the wave to musical success off the back of their recent single My Way
How did Wave Raiders first come
together and what inspired the band’s name? Tom: Dad got us our first gig at the Caloundra RSL when we were just 10 and 12 years old. A few weeks out, we recruited my best mate Jayden as our bass player, and that was the beginning of the Wave Raiders. The name ‘Wave Raiders’ comes from our love of surfing waves and sound waves and our desire to shock and excite our audiences.
Tell us about your new single My Way. What is the song is about? Jayden: My Way is about not following the pack and doing things our way. It’s a rebellious anthem about not letting anyone stop us from pursuing our dreams.
Who are your biggest musical influences and how do they show up in your style? Pete: Our biggest influences are Silverchair, The Screaming Jets, The Chats, Green Day and Tool. You will hear this in our gritty, punky and old-school rock sound, with a touch of psychedelia.
Can you walk us through how you write and develop a new track. Is it collaborative or does one of you take the lead? Jayden: Pete or I bring a guitar riff to a band practice, and we develop it as a band from there. We add lyrics, bass and drums – but often in different orders. We road test our songs live and adjust them along the way,
before we record them. It’s a real collaborative approach.
What’s been your most memorable gig so far and what can audiences expect from a Wave Raiders’ live set? Pete: Our most memorable moment so far was when we got up with Spiderbait on the main stage on the last night of the last Caloundra Music Festival and played Calypso with them, shocking 10,000 fans. We were only 10 to 12 years at the time, and it helped us and the music industry realise what we were capable of. At our live shows, you can expect a high-powered set with a lot of movement and shenanigans. Think guitars being played on the backs of heads, rolling around on the ground and jumping off drum kits. We love our audience to have as much fun as we do on stage, and to walk away thinking of it as a memorable experience. No two sets are the same. We’re always mixing it up.
What’s next for the band and are you working on new music or planning any gigs? Tom: We have another single coming out later this year which will show a different side to us, and an EP planned for next year that we think will showcase how we have really matured as musicians. We have so many cool gigs coming up, too, that you can check out on our socials and web page.
With the September school holidays underway, the Queensland Police Service’s (QPS) Operation Xray Spring Break aims to target unsafe driving behaviours during one of the busiest travel periods of the year.
Running until October 10, the operation covers the school holidays and the first week of the new term, when traffic volumes are at their peak and the risk of crashes is significantly higher.
Motorists can expect to see police anywhere at any time, with high-visibility patrols and roadside enforcement focusing on the ‘Fatal Five’: speeding, drink and drug driving, failure to wear seatbelts, fatigue and distraction.
Motorists can also expect to see police patrolling Teewah Beach, Double Island Point and Rainbow Beach to set the tone for expected driving behaviours on the sand. Overt and covert operations will be used to detect and deter dangerous driving.
As of September 18, 218 people have lost their lives on Queensland roads.
“Road safety is everyone’s responsibility,” Chief Superintendent Mark Wheeler says. “Drivers need to plan their journeys, allow extra travel time, take
breaks and be patient with the heavier traffic. We want motorists to remember that every decision on the road matters and every life lost is one too many.”
North Coast Region Assistant Commissioner Kevin Guteridge says police take a zero-tolerance approach to reckless behaviour on roads and beaches.
“Whether you’re driving on the bitumen, a dirt road or the sand, the same road rules apply,” he says.
September 29 will also mark National Police Remembrance Day, which honours the lives and service of fallen police officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice, including the recent tragic events in Porepunkah, Victoria.
A service will be held at Kawana Waters Surf Life Saving Club, Buddina, at 8.30am, with the community encouraged to attend or pay their respects.
Set within the heart of Bokarina Beach, AZZURE places you at the centre of a thriving new lifestyle hub, where surf, sunshine, cafés, dining, and coastal culture come together.

Hello everyone,
Do you love wandering through a gallery looking at art? I do!
The Sunshine Coast National Art Prize Exhibition has been captivating visitors at Caloundra Regional Gallery for the past month – and if you haven’t had the chance to see it yet, I highly encourage you to experience this stunning collection in person.
This year, we received more than 460 entries from talented artists across every Australian state and territory. The 40 finalist works on display showcase contemporary Australian art at its finest.
On September 25, I’m looking forward to discovering which of our finalists will be awarded the $25,000 major prize and which artwork has been chosen as the People’s Choice. It’s always inspiring to see how art resonates differently with each of us.
This year’s winning work will become the 20th piece added to our growing Sunshine Coast Art Collection: a cultural asset that enriches our community today and leaves a lasting legacy for future generations.
A big thank you to the sponsors who help to make this happen.
The exhibition is free and open until October 12.
See you there!

Sunshine Coast Council has been meeting with schools to discuss the RideScore Program and how we can better plan for safer active transport around campuses.
In 2026, Pacific Paradise State School will join this fantastic program.
The RideScore Active Schools Program encourages children to choose active, sustainable ways to travel to and from school such as bike riding, scooting and skating. This program helps encourage students to stay active while reducing traffic congestion and emissions around schools.
Pacific Paradise State School parents and carers are encouraged to complete a short survey to identify new paths or crossings needed to help kids walk or ride to school safely.
Your feedback will help shape future infrastructure planning in the local area.

The recent Sunshine Coast Corporate Charity Golf Challenge has reached an impressive fundraising total to support SunnyKids’ Transitional Housing Project.
The event brought together 144 players and corporate supporters with the goal of helping vulnerable families build safe and stable futures.
The $109,531 raised will contribute to the construction of six townhouses, providing secure accommodation for up to 132 individuals per year and equating to 5475 safe bed nights.
SunnyKids CEO Kathleen Hope says the event’s success shows what can be achieved when the community comes together with compassion and purpose.
“We are so grateful to the Sunshine Coast community for rallying behind this year’s Corporate Charity Golf Challenge,” she says.
“Your generosity will directly support our transitional housing project, helping children and families feel safe and hopeful again.”

Ashley Robinson understands that sometimes he has no filter, but he has learnt that putting his money where his mouth is can be expensive.
f you watch the TV comedy Seinfeld, you will probably know who Kramer is. If you aren’t a Seinfeld tragic like me, Kramer is a weird-looking dude who says exactly what he thinks with zero regard to offending anyone.
You know, like when someone asks you: “Does my bum look too big in this skirt?” Most folks will worm their way out of the question without upsetting the owner of the bottom. Not Kramer. His character works on the fact that if you are silly enough to ask, you will get a brutally honest answer with feelings put to one side.
Why do I bring this up? Well, yours truly is a bit the same. I have mellowed, but will usually give an honest answer which sometimes offends people. I used to be way more straightforward back in the day, but having worked the past decade with gen Z, I have had to water my response down a tad.
On top of that, I had an experience a few years ago while playing golf in Canberra. We were playing in two pairs for some cash. I only met one of the opposition players on the day, and he was a big bloke. There was some sledging heading towards the last hole, but he never engaged.
We got to the last green. He had a long putt to win and missed, while I had a 60cm putt to win. When he went to pick his ball up, I said, “Do want a hand to get that as it looks like a bit of an effort to bend over?” He just looked at me, threw his hands in the air and said, “You win. Anybody that looks like you and has a crack at someone about being fat, you are the best!”
As I stood over the putt, I started thinking that he was probably right, and of course I missed the putt. Lesson learnt ... and an expensive one.
So, when I offend people by giving the wrong answer, I usually hit them with that line. If I have told you your bum is too big, you have a bad haircut, you have man boobs in that shirt or any pearls of wisdom about the way you look, take into account where that opinion is coming from and what the Muppet looks like.
We all should live by this quote: “Beautiful has nothing to do with looks. It’s how you are as a person and how you make others feel about themselves.”
Let’s go with that. And if I had adopted that outlook years ago, I would have won golf.
TJane Stephens says many doctors and researchers are prescribing a good dose of nature to help with our ills and as preventative medicine.
hey are called green and blue prescriptions: medical advice to get back in contact with rural or coastal environments to improve our health.
And this is no woo-woo, hippy treehugging stuff – its benefit has been scientifically proven again and again.
Getting outside and away from artificial air, light and surfaces have significant positive effects on our mental and physical health, reducing our risk of cardiovascular disease, as well as symptoms of anxiety and depression, and making us move more.
Getting outside can also have a positive impact on sleep, focus and creativity.
The Australian Journal of General Practice has offered doctors guidelines around green and blue prescribing, indicating it was accepted practice for GPs to advise patients to, say, walk for 10 or 20 minutes outside or commit to regularly meditating near the ocean.
It advised that those with chronic disease and mental health conditions particularly benefitted and that a written prescription, verbal counselling or referral to another provider were all A-OK.
We are only now catching up with this
medical practice that is well established in other countries. In 2020, the UK government pledged £4million to support additional green and blue prescribing in four urban areas hard hit by Covid.
Doctors in several Canadian provinces have been able to prescribe time in nature to their patients, including a pass to access the country’s national parks, since 2022.
In Japan, health practitioners have recommended shinrin-yoku or forest bathing – connecting with nature through the senses – since the 1980s, when evidence was mounting that urban life aggravated depression and disconnection.
It is not surprising that the healing power of the outdoors is now being defined, affirmed and embraced by our doctors. Latin was the international language of scholarship and science during the formative years of modern medicine – when the phrase ‘vis medicatrix naturae’ or ‘the healing power of nature’ emerged.
How lucky are we on the Sunshine Coast to have mountains and sea to bathe in?
Get outside. Go blue. Go green.
Whether it is sunshine, vitamin sea or bush bathing, the Earth’s embrace could be the best medicine ever prescribed.
Sunshine Coast Council has approved a year-long inspection program targeting the region’s regulated dogs, with officers to check compliance of more than 130 animals.
The program will cost an estimated $61,560, funded through registration fees paid by owners of regulated dogs: animals considered either dangerous or menacing.
Councillors voted unanimously at the ordinary general meeting on September 18 to adopt the systematic inspection program for regulated dogs, which will run for 12 months from November 14.
A council officer’s report ahead of the meeting said the program gave authorised inspectors the power to enter private properties and check whether owners of regulated dogs were complying with mandatory safety conditions.
“Council has committed to empowering responsible pet ownership through education, proactive community engagement and regulation programs,” the report says.
“This ensures that pet owners are informed of their responsibilities and can make choices to keep our community safe when managing their pets.
“One of the key education and regulation actions undertaken for community safety is the program.
“In cases where a dog is regulated, council undertakes an annual audit to ensure the dog is being kept in accordance with mandatory conditions, including additional signage, specialised containment,
use of a muzzle and desexing of some animals.”
As of August 18, 135 regulated dogs were on the council’s register, which includes animals declared menacing or dangerous after attacks on people or other animals. Of those, 90 were declared due to attacks on other animals, while 45 followed attacks on people.
The council has wide-ranging powers around regulated dogs, including handing out fines of up to $2503, issuing compliance notices, seizing animals considered a risk or, in the most serious cases, ordering the destruction of the dog. Further action can be taken through the courts, with a maximum penalty of $25,035.
Since August 2024 only one regulated dog in the council area had reoffended, with a destruction notice issued.
Registration fees for 2025-26 are set at $612 for dangerous or menacing dogs, or $470 for desexed menacing dogs. The council is required to offer an incentive to owners of menacing dogs to desex their pet. On current registrations, the council expects to collect about $79,496 in fees.

As we age, cognitive decline is a natural factor. From memory to mood and function, it’s important to support your brain health with lifestyle, diet and targeted supplements. It could really make a difference in longevity and mental vitality.
Chronic stress, a poor work/life balance, high-pressured lifestyle, excess food consumption and poor dietary choices, limited exercise and lack of sleep contribute negatively to brain health.
Symptoms to be mindful of are cognitive concerns such as forgetfulness, lowered resistance to things outside of your control, feeling overwhelmed, easily frustrated, increased mood swings and brain fog. Continual inflammatory processes in your body such as viruses or bacterial infections, autoimmune conditions or chronic pain can also lead to accumulation of toxic substances, creating neuro-inflammation.
Inflammation and flavonoids –breaking the cycle of inflammation can be
Key amino acids that support our brain are arginine, glycine and methionine. These combine to create creatine and ultimately the energy source ATP (adenosine triphosphate), fuelling cellular energy and cognitive function as we age.
BRINGS A MODERN TWIST Pilates has long been recognised for its ability to strengthen, lengthen and tone the body. But one company has been reshaping how people experience it.
achieved by using flavonoids. Look for supplements that lower brain inflammation with targeted flavonoids to improve mental energy. An anti-inflammatory diet is important, focusing on wholefoods that aren’t processed or sprayed with chemicals.
Sleep support and hydration – let me introduce you to the glymphatic system: an amazing mechanism of the body that ‘washes the brain’ while we sleep, removing neurotoxic waste products and distributing neurotransmitters, glucose and lipids into the brain more effectively. The need for sleep is critical to have this wash process. If you’re struggling with getting a good night’s rest, speak to naturopaths to support your lifestyle – from magnesium and herbal tonics to dietary advice. Brain fog or headaches can be a result of dehydration. Have mineral-rich water to feed your cells by adding some Celtic salt or electrolytes.
Protein, creatine and amino acids – our brains need protein. As we process protein, it breaks down into amino acids, which are crucial for supporting neuro-transmitters.
Healthy fats and omegas – the brain is 60 per cent fat. The myelin sheath that surrounds nerves and the membranes of cells are all made from lipids (or fats). The brain can synthesise all the lipids it requires apart from DHA, and this molecule doesn’t easily cross the blood-brain barrier. EPA polar lipids enable omega 3 transport to the brain, enhancing cognitive function and inhibiting inflammation pathways.
Omega 3 poly unsaturated fats DHA and EPA support brain health in many ways: they increase glymphatic clearance, support blood-brain barrier integrity and can influence neuroplasticity which is the ability of the brain to rewire. Look for a DHA polar lipid with an EPA algal oil or clean fish oil.
Herbal cognitive support – my top five herbs to support brain function, memory, attention and focus are: Ginkgo, Bacopa, Gotu kola, rosemary and Lion’s Mane. Supplementing with herbs and nutrients is particularly useful for times that have a higher cognitive load such as exams.

Since 2002, Studio Pilates International has been offering reformer-based workouts that combine traditional Pilates principles with modern technology and a focus on exercise science.
Classes run for 40 minutes and use a mix of guided instruction and audio-visual cues to help participants move safely and effectively through each sequence. This approach allows for a blend of structure and flexibility, with instructors on hand to provide personal attention, even in a group.
Unlike many high-intensity workouts, Pilates is low-impact, making it suitable for a wide range of ages and fitness levels. The emphasis on controlled movement means it can be as challenging or as gentle as you need, whether your goal is improved posture, injury prevention or simply building overall strength and tone.
The studio environment is also part of the appeal. Designed to feel sleek and calming, the spaces are intended to help people switch off from the noise of daily life.
Now with more than 120 studios around the world, Studio Pilates is part of a broader trend that sees reformer Pilates moving from niche to mainstream.
A day after surgery (above) and before (right)
Would you rather sit in the chair under local anaesthetic for more than five hours to get your teeth removed and implants placed? Or would you have the entire process done under a two-to-three-hour general anaesthetic?
If your teeth are failing and embarrassing you, if you are struggling to eat because of poor teeth or if you are anxious because of your teeth and are afraid of the thought of having something done, oral and maxillofacial surgeon Dr Ian Wilson can assist you.
Firstly, a thorough investigation of your teeth and mouth is carried out by taking records, and CT and intraoral scans.
Then, under general anaesthesia and in just one procedure, Dr Wilson removes
your teeth, recontours and augments your bone, and places dental implants.
Then, he secures your new bridges the following day.
The entire process is carried out by Dr Wilson and his team at Suncoast OMS in the recently upgraded, full-specialist, general-anaesthetic facility at the Nambour Day Surgery.
This state of the art facility enables patients from the Sunshine Coast and neighbouring regions to have their poor teeth removed, multiple implants placed and scanned so that temporary bridges can be made overnight.
In addition to the distinguishable results, some procedures are claimable under Medicare.
The cost of implants themselves may be covered if you have top private health hospital cover.
If you are considering options to replace your teeth, call 5452 5146 or email reception@suncoastoms.com.au to arrange a consultation.

It’s important to understand when professional guidance might help in a marriage. Do you and your partner argue about the same things over and over?
Maybe you’ve stopped talking much at all.
Perhaps you feel more like housemates than husband and wife. These changes happen slowly, but they’re worth paying attention to.
What do these signs actually mean?
Every marriage has rough patches.
But some warning signs are harder to ignore.
You might feel emotionally distant from each other. Small things your partner does might really annoy you now. Money arguments happen more often. You might even catch yourself wondering what life would be like if you were single again.
The good news is that noticing these signs early gives you choices. Recent
changes to Australian family law in June this year have made the legal process clearer and simpler.
But that doesn’t mean every struggling marriage needs to end.
Knowledge gives you power.
Many couples work through these problems with counselling or honest conversations. Others realise they’re better apart. Either way, understanding your situation helps you make better decisions.
Talking to a family lawyer doesn’t mean you want a divorce. It means you want to understand your options. This knowledge helps you feel more confident about whatever path you choose.
What should you do next?
Whether you want to save your marriage or you’re thinking about separation, getting proper advice early helps avoid problems later.
The new family law changes make things easier to understand, but you still need someone to explain what they mean for your situation.
If you’re wondering whether your relationship problems are normal or serious, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

The Queensland Tourism Industry Council (QTIC) is encouraging small and medium tourism and hospitality operators to apply for the $2500 Tourism Business Digital Adaption Program rebate, with just under eight weeks before applications close.
The rebate can be used for digital tools and subscriptions that help towards running a tourism business.
The program, delivered by QTIC in partnership with the Queensland government, has already helped hundreds of businesses boost efficiency, improve decision making and enhance visitor experiences by supporting investment in practical digital tools – from website development to online booking systems and AI.
QTIC CEO Natassia Wheeler says the countdown is on for operators to take advantage of the limited opportunity.
“Digital capability is no longer a ‘nice to have’. It’s fundamental to the competitiveness and sustainability of tourism businesses,” she says. “With only two months left before the program closes, we urge operators not to wait. This is a practical way to upgrade digital systems that directly benefit both business operations and the visitor experience.”

What type of super fund is best for me?
It’s a question I’m often asked. And the answer is: it depends. The main types are: industry funds, wrap platforms and selfmanaged super funds (SMSFs).
Each has its place, depending on your goals, involvement and what you value most. Industry funds: marketed as low-fee options, industry funds have low admin fees but still charge investment and transaction fees. Investment options are restricted. Participants in a ‘balanced’ portfolio possess identical underlying assets. These selections cannot be tailored to individual preferences. Wrap platforms: these offer greater investment flexibility. Admin fees are higher, but you can choose from a wide range of investments and tailor your portfolio to suit. If you already hold property or shares, this flexibility can help manage overall exposure. Fee comparison: for a $500,000 balance in a balanced option – Industry Fund A: ~$3200 pa; Wrap Platform B: ~$3400 pa. That’s a difference of just $200 per year. Always check total fees. Don’t assume. SMSFs: these offer the highest control but come with more responsibility. You manage the investments, tax and admin and must ensure compliance. You will need an accountant for returns and audits, plus sufficient capital to start. They can be excellent but only if you are informed and prepared for the responsibilities.
Which one is best depends on your goals. A qualified adviser can help you choose.
A reverse mortgage can be a helpful option for older Australians looking to access the wealth tied up in their home without needing to sell.
It allows you to borrow money using your home equity as security.
There are no regular repayments required while you continue to live there.
The loan, plus interest, is generally repaid when the property is sold.
That’s usually when you move into aged care or your estate settles the loan.
This can provide a flexible way to supplement your retirement income.
It can also pay for home improvements, cover medical expenses, or simply allow you to enjoy a more comfortable lifestyle.
It’s important to remember that a reverse mortgage will reduce the value of your estate and may also affect your eligibility for government benefits.
Every situation is unique, so getting clear, tailored advice is essential.
If you’d like to explore whether a reverse mortgage is right for you, reach out to the friendly team members at TSC Mortgage Brokers, who are available to support you every step of the way.
If you accept the role of executor of an estate, you take on certain legal responsibilities.
After the payment of estate debts, the primary obligation of an executor is the transfer of the assets of the deceased to the beneficiaries named in the Will.
But what happens if a beneficiary can’t be found?
The executor has an obligation to locate the missing beneficiary.
The types of inquiries an executor may carry out will depend on the size of the gift and the costs involved.
If, after reasonable inquiries have been made, the beneficiary still cannot be found, an executor might consider seeking the protection of an order of the Court.
The Court is able to make an order allowing an executor to distribute the estate to the known beneficiaries.
The Court order protects the executor for the distribution if the missing beneficiary ever turns up to ‘reclaim’ their gift.
Applying to the Court can be an expensive exercise.
If your executor has no family connection with any of the beneficiaries, keeping an up-to-date record of their contact details can be of great assistance to your executor – as well as saving your estate unnecessary costs.
Waste can account for up to 30 per cent of the operating costs of a business. Unfortunately, waste is often simply accepted as the operating norm.
Most businesses put their energy into increasing sales rather than looking for any wastereduction opportunities.
Step 1: Audit – complete a waste audit on your business to identify the wide range of waste issues within the organisation that, when addressed, will improve profitability.
Go through your expenses, line by line.
Step 2: Prioritise – with so many issues requiring attention, the project of driving out waste can be overwhelming.
Setting the priority enables the most important issues to be dealt with first.
Step 3: Teams – creating teams to drive the waste-reduction process (and remove the wastes) doesn’t just happen. It needs to be managed.
Step 4: KPIs – you need to establish key performance indicators (KPIs) before you start driving out waste.
Step 5: Repeat – when most of the waste has been addressed, this step then involves going back to Step 1 and repeating the process annually.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the 40-Hour Famine, and students from Sunshine Coast Grammar School have responded with creativity, courage and compassion.
More than 60 students signed up to
take part in the popular fundraiser, joining thousands of young Australians in raising awareness and funds to combat global hunger.
From sleeping in tents for 40 hours to climbing Mount Coolum 40 times, students have embraced the challenge.
Among those efforts, Year 12 student Jack Taylor swapped the classroom for the skies, completing 40 touch-and-go landings in a light aircraft.
“Flying is my passion and this was a way I could turn it into something meaningful,” Jack says.
“I’ve spent years listening to teachers speak about important global issues and it finally hit me. It’s time to stop just learning and actually do something.”
Sunshine Coast Grammar principal Anna Owen praised the initiative and spirit demonstrated by all the students involved.
“(Jack) is connecting his passion for aviation with his growing awareness of this important global issue”
“What makes Jack’s effort so inspiring is that he is connecting his passion for aviation with his growing awareness of this important global issue,” Mrs Owen says. “It’s exactly the kind of active citizenship we foster in our students.”
Grammar students have raised more than $10,000 for the cause, placing the school among the top-four fundraising schools in Australia and the leading campus on the Sunshine Coast. Donations close at the end of this month.

This week the sun and Mercury both activate your relationship and joint ventures zones, so harmonious partnerships and creative projects are highlighted. If you combine diplomacy with dynamism, you’ll sail through any temporary challenges.
LEO (JULY 23 - AUG 22)
Calling all Cats – are you making the most of your clever mind?
This week, the sun and Mercury activate your communication and education zones, so conversation, passionate debate, informal study, research and creative thinking will take you far.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV 22 - DEC 21)
Jupiter (your power planet) is in your money-from-others zone, which often coincides with financial luck. But this week – with Mercury squaring Jupiter – any gains could be gobbled up by increasing bills, expenses or impulse buys.
1. The historic landmark Cooks’ Cottage is located in which public park in Melbourne?
TAURUS (APR 20 - MAY 20)
Courtesy of Venus (your patron planet) a problem involving a child or close friend should improve, and many Bulls will feel a creativity boost. With the sun and Mercury moving through your health-andwellbeing zone, find a diet and exercise routine that suits you.
VIRGO (AUG 23 - SEP 22)
Personal projects and long-term partnerships (of the romantic, platonic and business variety) are highlighted this week. You may get a knock-back as Saturn tests commitment and perseverance, but don’t get bogged down with negative self-talk.
CAPRICORN (DEC 22 - JAN 19)
The sun and Mercury light up your career zone, so utilise your drive and communication skills to attract opportunities. Then use your can-do Capricorn attitude to take action. Mars (visiting your hopes-and-dreams zone) reminds you to be proactive and set goals.
GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 20)
This week, Jupiter squares your ruler Mercury, which can lead to impulsive behaviour and rash decisions. Slow down and think things through before you speak and act. With Uranus visiting your sign, expect the unexpected!
LIBRA (SEP 23 - OCT 22)
Librans love to be pampered, but it’s time to jump out of your comfort zone! Jupiter is visiting your public reputation zone, and Uranus is revving up your adventure zone, which encourages you to do things differently.
AQUARIUS (JAN 20 - FEB 18)
Flirt alert! With Venus and Uranus in two of your relationship zones (plus the sun and Mercury in Libra), you’re at your flirtatious best as you charm the cynics and dazzle the doubters. (When amorous Aquarians are in charm mode, you’re hard to resist.)
CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22)
Remember that Jupiter (planet of optimism, growth and prosperity) is visiting your sign, which only happens every 12 years. Between now and June 30 (when Jupiter transits into Leo), it will be easier to initiate positive changes than at other times.
SCORPIO (OCT 23 - NOV 21)
Courtesy of the sun and Mercury in your solitude zone, you’re not in the mood to mingle. So keep a low profile this week as you relax and recharge. Plus – with the Moon and Pluto linking up in your family zone – secrets from the past could boomerang back.
PISCES (FEB 19 - MAR 20)
This week’s stars highlight intimacy, secrets and trust issues. With Saturn back in Pisces (until February 14), you will make messy mistakes and experience disappointments along the way. But don’t let them deter you from your chosen path.

Arare beachfront property in one of the southern Sunshine Coast’s most sought-after streets has hit the market, offering sweeping ocean views and direct beach access.
The multi-level home has been designed to maximise its coastal setting, with panoramic windows framing vistas across Shelly Beach, the shipping lanes and out to Moffat Headland.
Located at 22 Victoria Terrace, Shelly Beach, the five-bedroom home is spread across three levels and combines family-friendly functionality with luxury finishes.
Ray White Caloundra director Andrew Garland says that this is an ideal
family home that delivers on ‘exclusivity’.
“It’s a generously sized home that would suit a larger family,” Mr Garland says.
“There are five bedrooms plus a study and multiple living areas.
“It’s very private and, to access the front of the home, you have to go down a private road off Shelly Beach Park.
“It has that unique appeal of exclusivity.”
The ground floor includes four bedrooms, a rumpus room, home office and outdoor entertaining space that flows onto a private pool framed by a bush backdrop.
The upper level is dedicated to open-plan living, complete with a chef’s kitchen, walk-in
SHELLY BEACH
pantry, theatre room and parents’ retreat.
Floor-to-ceiling glass captures the ocean from every angle, while a wide balcony provides a great vantage point to watch ships pass and whales migrate.
An observation deck on the third level delivers uninterrupted, 180-degree views of the coastline, while a three-car garage offers ample storage space.
“The home is elevated on a hill, so it gets a great outlook,” Mr Garland says.
“This time of the year, you see the whales playing around in the ocean.”
The 684sqm property is metres from petfriendly Shelly Beach and within walking distance of local shops and schools.
Property features:
• 684sqm oceanfront allotment with panoramic ocean views
• open-plan living area that seamlessly flows onto the large northeast-facing deck
• generous rumpus and poolside deck with easy access to the in-ground pool
• three-car, lock-up garage with ample storage space
• pet-friendly Shelly Beach is on your doorstep
• close to restaurants, shops and the Caloundra CBD.
• a short stroll to public transport.

An expressions of interest campaign has been launched to secure a large-scale, mixed-use estate with long-term development potential.
One of Southeast Queensland’s largest ‘englobo’ land opportunities – already approved for a comprehensive, master-planned community – has hit the market.
The 181-hectare developmentapproved site at Elimbah is being offered for sale via an expressions of interest campaign.
‘Englobo’ refers to undeveloped land that is zoned for future urban purposes and is capable of being subdivided into smaller parcels.
Located at the intersection of Pumicestone Road and Clinker Road, 250 metres from the Bruce Highway interchange, the site presents an opportunity to secure a freehold interest in a large-scale, mixed-use estate with immediate and long-term development potential.
Jointly marketed by Ray White Special Projects Queensland and Cushman & Wakefield, the site is already approved for a master-planned community incorporating residential and employment-generating industrial land
uses. Development approval is in place for the first 288 residential lots, with the broader scheme accommodating up to 1400 lots in total.
Lot sizes are planned to suit a range of market needs.
“This is a landmark opportunity in terms of both scale and strategic positioning,” Ray White Special Projects Queensland’s Tony Williams says.
“The combination of residential, business and industrial zoning, with approvals already secured, sets this apart as one of the most compelling land offerings currently available in Queensland.”
The estate includes an approved 4.05-hectare service centre site at the Pumicestone Road frontage.
Morgan Ruig, of Cushman &
Wakefield, says the site’s infrastructure readiness and zoning mix make it especially attractive for developers with a long-term view.
“This is a rare instance where residential, industrial and business land are approved and integrated into one estate, with significant frontage and direct access to major transport infrastructure,” he says.

The week kicked off with small, fun waves around 2-3ft at Mooloolaba and Noosa Main Beach.
From today (Thursday), a fresh swell builds to 3-4ft, giving the Alexandra Headland and Sunshine Beach crew some punchy peaks, while the Noosa points smooth things out.
The weekend holds steady around 3ft –ideal for early sessions at Coolum or a cruisy glide along First Point.
As October rolls in, waves are likely to ease back to 2ft runners but still plenty of fun for a paddle at Moffat or Golden Beach.
