Hi fellow Aussie consultants. Today’s R U OK day, and whilst I believe one should ask this question on any day, it’s a good reminder for us.

Given recent tragic events at EY and the pressures we face with daily, please make sure to speak to your loved ones if required. Mental health is real. I’m happy to lend an ear too.

Aim of this bowl is for us to help each other as best as we can, more so than anything else. I hope everyone is doing ok, happy Friday Jr!

Stay awesome, people 😊
