SLP 476: Making Each Day Count with Lisa Rowe
‘How do you cope? And she would say, ‘Well, what is my alternative? I have to cope. And what is coping? I have to be there for my son, be there for my other children. And I have to endure.’ So, I guess, when you talk about strategies, that’s kind of my strategy. Life’s short, we are lucky to have every single day on this planet. And I think of people who are every day facing surgery, chemotherapy and worse, their final breath. And I am also very aware of what it’s like to be the loved one of somebody doing that. You know, having lost my mother at the age of 50. My strategy is very much based on gratitude. Every single day that I get another day, another go and make it count. Make every minute count for all those who don’t have the opportunity.’ ~ Lisa Rowe
In this week’s show we talk to Lisa Rowe, a prominent figure on the Sunshine Coast, who shares her background, career journey, and personal philosophy of gratitude, emphasising the importance of making every day count. She shares her 24-year tenure at Wishlist, the hospital foundation for the region, and her decision to leave to pursue a new venture with Caroline Hutchinson, focusing on highlighting businesses that prioritise social responsibility. The conversation also touched on the concept of using a magic wand to create an ideal world, the importance of self-care, and the impact of Lisa’s work in healthcare. A very heartfelt and inspirational interview destined to make your heart sing.
About Lisa:
With a rich background in fundraising and organisational leadership, Lisa served as the CEO of Wishlist (Sunshine Coast Health Foundation) for 24 years. In that time, the hospital charity grew from a team of two in a demountable to more than 25, with 150 volunteers spanning two Coffee Houses and three emergency accommodation centres across the Coast and Gympie. Under her guidance, Wishlist directed more than $22 million towards enhancing local public health services through medical equipment, research funding, new facilities, and support initiatives across five local hospitals.
Her definition of self-love is spending time to identify and then create space for the things that fill your cup or de-stress you. That can be time for the things that matter. It’s about forgiveness, and giving to self. It’s about growth and gratitude.
Her favourite quote is from Amanda Gorman:
We ignite not in the light, but in lack thereof.’
