Wondering how to celebrate International Chocolate Day with us next Wednesday? πŸ‘€πŸ«

Here is a simple step by step guide...

1. Wakey, wakey! Start with a mocha to defibrillate your morning πŸ˜‚.

2. Mud cake, because adulting is hard.

3. Sticky Date & Chocolate (GF) for our gluten-free friends who still want to get their dessert on.

4. Tiramisu, because who doesn't love a good coffee break?

5. Snack attack? Grab our in-store goodies: New Farm Confectionary Milk Choc Macadamia + Passionfruit, Milk Choc Coated Whole Strawberries, or Triple Choc Byron Bay Cookies - yum!

6. Finish strong with an iced chocolate (or iced mocha, because let's be real, you might need another caffeine kick) πŸ˜‰

Today is World Mental Health Day, let's rise together to prioritize our wellbeing! Take a moment to breathe, reflect, and reach out to those around you. A single conversation, a kind word, or a listening ear can be the spark that ignites hope. Let's shine a light on mental health, break down barriers, and build a community where everyone feels empowered to seek help when needed. 🌟

Get a team together! Love well. Play well. Give well!

You can love well in different ways.

Join us for the Lovewell Foundation's Charity Golf Tournament on Friday, 16 October, for a day on the course with a purpose beyond golf.

You can get behind a team, bring your colleagues, invite your clients or friends, sponsor a hole or support the day in another way. Every team registered and every dollar raised helps Lovewell Foundation support women as they rebuild their lives through training, employment and entrepreneurship.

Bring a team, have some fun and help create opportunities and connections that can make a real difference in a woman’s future. Team registration is open, and we’re also welcoming sponsors and partners who would like to support the day.

Love well. Play well. Give well.

Vida Life Counselling is holding an Event at Lovewell

Calling Brisbane small business owners & entrepreneurs!
Running a small business can be incredibly rewarding, but let’s be honest, it can also be exhausting.
Between clients, finances, marketing, growth, staff, admin and the never-ending to-do list, it’s easy to put yourself last.
As a small local business ourselves in Sumner, we get it. That’s why we’ve created Business & Balance: an afternoon for local business owners to step away from the daily grind, connect with others who understand, and invest in both their business and themselves.
We’re bringing together practical knowledge, real conversations and useful strategies around:
🌱 Building a sustainable business and life
🧠 Mental wellbeing & avoiding burnout
πŸ’° Financial wellbeing & business decisions
🀝 Connecting with other local business owners
πŸ’¬ Sharing ideas, experiences and practical tips
πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ Taking time to pause, reset and recharge
And because we know small business owners need to be mindful of every expense, we’ve kept the cost deliberately low, with catering and a drink included.
Whether you’re a new entrepreneur, a solo operator, growing a team or have been in business for years β€” come and spend an afternoon with people who get it.
πŸ“… 6 October 2026
πŸ•’ Doors open 2:45pm | Starts 3:00pm
πŸ“ Brisbane
🍽️ Catering + drink included
Connect. Learn. Reset. Leave with something valuable for both you and your business.

Beyond the Horizon by Nathan

β€œCaptured at sunset at Lovewell Cafe, Mt Gravatt Lookout overlooking Brisbane.
This sweeping view over the horizon mirrors the meaning of Lovewell: a safe haven for women surviving domestic violence, where they work, learn and rebuild their confidence.
The bird beside a coffee, gazing into the fading light, embodies gentle hope-leaving hard chapters behind, just as this sunset opens toward a new horizon.”
