Q. What do brokers do to unwind?

Social sport

I’m a social animal. I like to catch up with friends, family.

Over the weekend, we play some sports together – maybe cricket, volleyball, and those sorts of things. It helps to feel surrounded by people and know we have people who trust us – that’s particularly [therapeutic] for me.

Natural living

Getting out of Sydney and exploring is the thing that probably gives me the most energy.

We live up on the beaches and we’re surrounded by nature, so we’re not up in the chaos of city life. That naturally keeps me more grounded I would say.

Good read

The thing I’ll do to relax is read. I’m a true believer that readers are leaders and learners are earners. It doesn’t matter what book. I’m big into business books, self-help, and self- development.

Bit of a stretch

I do Pilates – reformer Pilates – three or four times a week, which has been fantastic. It’s a really good, active workout, that’s sort of still mindful.

Being able to switch off is really important I think, knowing I’ve got the support behind me to say no, so I do have the time to unwind, spend time with my family, and do the things I enjoy doing.
