A little About ME

Laura Connarty-Duncan, Founder & CEO. Business Coach

Laura Connarty-Duncan GAICD

 Founder & CEO Champion Women


My Journey - Lived experience


With over 20 years of experience leading and managing businesses—from startups to multinational corporations, local government to government-funded organisations—I’ve worked across sectors and continents. My career spans:

  • Arts organisations
  • Not-for-profits & charities
  • Female-led organisations
  • Local government & government funded organisations
  • NDIS providers
  • Three national associations
  • Male-dominated industries (often as the only woman in the boardroom)


Originally from Scotland, I immigrated to Sydney in 2012 to support my husband’s career. While raising two children without nearby family or community, I juggled leadership roles and business responsibilities. I’ve faced burnout, battled perfectionism, and navigated the pressure to prove I could do it all - at times the first women in male dominated leadership roles, and the only women in the boardroom.


These experiences shaped my mission: 

to support women in business with empathy, strategy, and strength.

Why I Do This

I’m a passionate advocate for women, a speaker, and a leader in professional development and gender equality. I offer professional coaching for women in business, grounded in lived experience and proven frameworks.
