✨ Celebrate International Women’s Day 2026 with Fingal Enterprising Women Network ✨
Join us for a special FEWN networking lunch during Local Enterprise Week 2026, hosted by the Local Enterprise Office Fingal and facilitated by FEWN Manager Sharon Rossignuolo.
This inspiring event offers businesswomen the opportunity to connect, learn, and engage in an honest conversation about performance, sustainability, and well-being in business. Lunch is included, so come ready to network, reflect, and recharge.
We are delighted to welcome our keynote guest, Clare McKenna — broadcaster, author, and host of Newstalk’s Alive and Kicking.
In her fireside chat, “The Business of Being Well – High Performance Without the Hidden Cost,” Clare explores what it truly means to succeed without burning out. Through personal experience, professional insights, and themes from her bestselling book Would You Be Well?, she will unpack why well-being has become another item on busy to‑do lists — and how business owners can instead adopt a simpler, more realistic approach that genuinely supports performance.
Rather than offering another set of rules to follow, Clare guides us toward clarity, sustainability, and taking only what works. This session goes beyond wellness trends and creates space for grounded, practical insight that empowers businesswomen to feel better, work better, and make better decisions.
This FEWN event is not just a conversation — it’s a chance to step back, reconnect with yourself, and build meaningful connections with like‑minded entrepreneurs who understand the realities of being in business.
What to Expect
- Clear, evidence‑based insight into what truly supports well‑being and performance
- Understanding why all‑or‑nothing wellness approaches fail — and what works instead
