Working in travel is not just about inspiring people to go places; it’s about journeys. Journeys of discovery, exploration, and self-realisation. However, amid the turmoil and constant changes, we often overlook one of the most crucial journeys – the journey within ourselves.
As part of Karryon’s mission to enable connection through Together in Travel, we’re extremely proud to introduce our upcoming in-person Open Mindset event series.
Why? As the travel industry continues its recovery, we believe we have a collective opportunity to evolve our beloved industry for the better.
Launching our first event of the series on October 26, 2023, in Sydney, each Open Mindset lunch will be a masterclass on understanding industry challenges and opportunities together.
Drawing from a diverse spectrum of life experiences of people working in the travel industry, the perspectives shared will provide actionable solutions to integrate into your daily life.
Episode 1: How do we tackle the topic of maintaining mental wellbeing in the travel industry?
For our first event, we’ll delve deep into the topic of mental wellbeing in the travel industry.
Once an avoided topic or one relegated to hushed corners, it is now a critical conversation for a balanced, productive work environment and sustainable, happy workforce.
Sharing its latest insights, Beyond Blue will demystify the complexities of mental wellbeing, providing you with a toolkit to foster a healthier and more resilient workspace.

You’ll then hear from three esteemed industry leaders on a panel moderated by Karryon founder Matt Leedham, who will share their insights, personal encounters and the tactics they’ve woven into their businesses and life journeys to prioritise mental health.
You’ll also hear about inspiring travel industry initiatives that have helped make positive changes in the travel industry and learn how you can.
The Open Mindset format

With a delicious two-course lunch plus beverages, networking that promises more than just a business card exchange, and a chance to take home a prize, this isn’t just an event. It’s a shared experience that promises growth, understanding, and actionable change.
Each event will be ticketed via our partner Humantix – the humane ticketing platform with lower booking fees that all go to charity.
With $10 from each ticket sold to be donated to our foundation partner for the event, Beyond Blue.
While our Open Mindset events are an investment of two and a half hours, the returns will shape your professional journey for years.
All you need to bring to the event is an Open Mindset.
Tickets for the event go on sale on September 28, 2023.
