Powerful conversations about healing, accountability and respectful relationships took centre stage in Mackay when the Zonta Club of Mackay hosted two She Is Not Your Rehab events featuring internationally recognised speaker Matt Brown. Bringing together frontline workers, educators and community members, the events encouraged honest reflection on trauma, personal responsibility and the importance of breaking harmful cycles for future generations. Held with the support of local organisations and volunteers, the free sessions highlighted the Mackay community's commitment to creating safer, stronger and more connected communities. Through storytelling, shared experiences and practical tools, attendees were reminded that meaningful change often begins with a single conversation.
