Chels has just launched her first book ‘The Mindful High Performer’- which you must all check out!. Chels was a busy and burnt-out entrepreneur who then suffered severe postnatal depression once she became a mum and ended up in a psych ward! That is when she put on the hand break and started researching the science behind meditation and mindfulness, while also coming up with tools to still be productive, but keeping mental health practices as a priority. Chelsea is a proud ambassador for mental health charities R U OK? and Gidget Foundation Australia. As a result of her research, study and personal learnings, Chelsea created her company EQ Minds in 2016 with the goal of introducing high-performance mental fitness to the public and corporates. She is frequently hired by the likes of Uber, eBay, Google, Estee Lauder, The Australian Defence Force and more to inspire their teams with her science-based productivity and mindfulness methods.
