What we do.
At SA Woman we are all about elevating South Australian women and girls so that they can build connections, be seen and recognised for their achievements, contribution and innovation and forge their own path in a career or business they love.
We believe that all women deserve to be seen and recognised for their contribution to South Australia. We see inspiring stories and heroes everywhere. At the supermarket checkout, in our schools, in our small businesses, in our healthcare industry, in our leaders, in our girls and beyond. From all regions of SA, to all industries backgrounds and experience – we are here for all women working to make South Australia great!
We have three core pillars to support our mission:
Connected.
Build Connections.
SA Woman is here to support women to build new connections and foster relationships. We are about redefining networking – the SA Woman way. We are here to connect women and girls with the support and resources they need to soar. To connect the community with the women behind the companies, brands and businesses. To create a place online and in person where women feel they belong to a community of women who want to see them rise.
Seen.
Be Seen.
SA Woman is dedicated to bringing women to the forefront. It is time our women and girls are seen for the achievements, impact and innovation they bring to South Australia. We will celebrate, we will share their stories, we will show our women of the future and the world what our State has to offer in business, in career and in the community. EVERY South Australian woman is worthy of being seen, it is our mission that they are.
Elevated.
Forge your own Path.
SA Woman is committed to supporting women and girls to forge their own paths to success – however that looks to them. By creating connection, sharing stories and creating a movement of women soaring high and empowering one another, we are dedicated to showing women and girls what is truly possible. We can’t be what we can’t see, it’s time to see it! It’s our time!

Karen Conlon – SumTotal Accounting and Business
I have worked in the Accounting Industry for in excess of 30 Years.
During that time I have worked in a number of different industries, but have always enjoyed public practice the most.
This has led me to study further and have specialisations around Self Managed Superannuation funds and more recently in Succession, Asset Protection and Estate Planning.
My hobbies include: Knitting, Sewing and Long Range Rifle Shooting
Natalie Michels – Alite Mind
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been someone others turn to, a person they feel safe sharing their thoughts and emotions with. I’ve always held space for others, listened deeply, and supported them through their challenges. Counselling felt like a natural path for me, and I’m proud to be a registered counsellor with the Australian Counselling Association. I combine evidence-based strategies with wisdom-based practices to help people create lives filled with meaning, purpose, and resilience.
Over the years, I’ve faced major surgeries, endured a domestic violence relationship at a young age, lived with chronic pain, and was diagnosed with lymphoma cancer a decade ago. These experiences gave me firsthand insight into suffering, feeling stuck, and being completely overwhelmed.
Beyond my work, I’m a mum to two wonderful young adults, a wife, and an animal and bird lover. Our home is often alive with the sounds of our two exotic parrots, and our labradoodles Poppy and Holly. I have a special admiration for pelicans and love to unwind by the beach, where I often meditate, birdwatch, and connect with nature.
