When we speak, it is not so much about what we say, but about how we say it.

Last week, Sarah attended the Speak Up For Your Business workshop facilitated by the always amazing . From all reports, it was inspiring, powerful, thought provoking and energetic. Just like how we want our audience to feel after we've delivered a keynote!

The workshop was a powerful reminder that:

🎤 We all have a message. We need to share it and know how to share it.

🎤 Our voice and breath (and our beliefs!) are connected. What is going on in your body, and where in the body you feel your spoken words, impacts on your voice.

🎤 Storytelling is a powerful way to share your message. It draws people in and gives them a point of connection. What story can you share and why?

And so, Sarah's love for speaking continues. What stage will we see her on next?!

is done for another year!

Anita & Sarah have just spent a few days on the very rainy Gold Coast to hear from great speakers and sponsors about how to do business better - better systems, better work, better team, better outcomes!

This year's theme was all about vision and growth, which is right up our alley! We're excited to get back to the office and implement our learnings.

And although we don't like to pick favourites, the sessions by Ben at .ben and the incredible .nz were absolute stand outs! also delivered a very moving and inspirational keynote which left us with a good dose of perspective and gratitude (and the need to restock the tissues in our handbag)!

Thanks to everyone who made a great success, and to the fellow law firm owners who we had a chance to catch up with and learn from as well!

What's next on the conference calendar?! Con Con in June! Will we see you there?!

Who ya gonna call? MYTH BUSTERS!

As the new pharmacy legislative framework rolls out across Queensland, a couple of misconceptions are gaining traction.
Let’s bust them! 💥

⏳️ MYTH 1: “I don’t need to do anything yet. There’s a 2-year transition period.”

Well… there can be. But it may not apply to you. In some cases, the relevant timeframe is only 1 year (and we’re already almost 6 months into that!).

The transitional provisions are more nuanced than they’re being talked about. It’s worth checking how they apply to your specific situation before it’s too late.

(And please, get advice from an experienced pharmacy lawyer… not your mate down the road.)

🤷‍♀️ MYTH 2: “We can fix the trust deed after we apply. The Council will tell us what to do.”

This isn’t the right approach.

If you operate through a trust, your deed needs to be compliant at the time you apply. Lodging first and planning to tidy things up later usually just creates risk, delay, and unnecessary cost.

Also, the Council can’t give legal advice on how to amend your deed…so waiting for that guidance won't get you very far.

This isn’t about making things harder than they need to be. It’s about working from the correct information and getting the foundations right early.

If you’re not quite sure where you sit on transitional timing or structure, feel free to reach out or send us a message.

Please join us in welcoming Gemma to the team as our Offshore Associate.

Prior to joining Vitality Law Australia, Gemma worked for a number of years in the projects, infrastructure and construction team at a top tier commercial law firm in Brisbane. She also has in-house experience at a well known not-for-profit organisation.  

She recently relocated to Copenhagen with her husband and son, and when not at work, enjoys spending time with her family and sampling Danish pastries.

Gemma's geographical location means that while most of our team are wearing other hats (or sleeping!), Gemma is progressing client matters and is also able to assist with after hours appointments!

We're excited to have Gemma on the VLA team!

2026 has drawn to a close, and what an incredible experience it was!

The team was in high gear! From crucial sessions, client meetings, and exploring the trade show to networking events, we covered it all!

Needless to say, our step count, need for band aids, and caffeine intake all skyrocketed, but it was worth it!

We thoroughly enjoyed reconnecting with clients and industry connections, and immersing ourselves in all things pharmacy! APP is more than just a conference! It is a chance to reimagine the future of healthcare and is a great reminder that we work with a fantastic industry, where change is constant and the future is bright.

In addition to the productive discussions and fun we had, this year's conference also featured a few new highlights for our team:

💚 Proud sponsors!
💚 Feature article in Australasian Pharmacy Magazine! 💚 Session in the arena on partnerships!

And after a rest today, we're back to it tomorrow...with fresh ideas, strengthened relationships, and excitement for APP 2027! 💊

What a fantastic day at the 2026 Smokeball Spark Conference! 🧨

From being inspired by Mark Bouris AM to getting excited about the new developments in our practice management software, it was a great day of learning and connection.

We're excited about what today means for our practice and more importantly, for our clients! Think improved technologies, even better client service and dreams that are going to become realities!

Last week, we welcomed a new team member, Jenna Doran!

Jenna has been a long time friend of VLA and has followed the firm, and Sarah's career journey, for a number of years. When she recently contacted us about an opportunity to join the team, we jumped at the chance! We are so pleased that she made the decision to join us and we are thrilled to have her on board!

Jenna is our Legal Administrator, bringing extensive experience in legal administration and a strong interest in the healthcare sector. She is nearing completion of a Certificate III in Health Administration and is currently studying midwifery, providing her with a practical understanding of healthcare systems and patient-centred care.

In her spare time, Jenna enjoys spending time with her young family and alternating between a beach and bush day trip each weekend. Definitely our type of person!

Please join us in welcoming Jenna to the team!
