A Modern-Day Wonder Woman Nominated for 2025 GC Girls in Business Awards
High-performance business coach, pro athlete and author Alison Wheeler has been nominated for the prestigious 2025 Girls in Business Awards, being held this Saturday. Her nomination originates from her steadfast commitment to empowering female business leaders and elevating the performance of companies across Australia, New Zealand and abroad.
For over 15 years, Alison has worked with business owners, CEOs and executive teams, helping drive stronger companies and bigger results. Before diving into the world of business coaching, she lived the athlete’s life, discipline, resilience, unwavering focus and now brings that same high-performance mindset to the corporate arena.
Alison says: “There is no greater gift to the world than being a fully expressed version of yourself without holding back.” This ethos permeates everything she does, from her one-on-one coaching and retreats to her group scale-fast programs.
Being nominated for the Girls in Business Awards is more than a milestone; it is a beacon of what persistence, grit and bold thinking deliver. Alison describes her journey as: “Years of building, failing, learning and rising again and this nomination is proof that persistence pays off.”
She is not playing small this time. She is owning it, loudly, proudly, boldly. For every woman who’s ever been told to “stay in her lane”, Alison is showing there’s no lane that holds you, you build your own roads.
The 2025 Girls in Business Awards is the Gold Coast’s premier celebration of excellence, innovation and leadership in business. While the heart of the event is to recognise and uplift women in business, this year the awards also celebrate the men who support and lead with purpose. The evening features a red-carpet arrival, live entertainment, a two-course dinner, networking, and a powerful awards ceremony.
Alison’s nomination is not just her personal win, it’s an invitation to the wider business and leadership community to rally behind women who lead, innovate and inspire. She says: “Let’s back other women and show what’s possible.” Her presence at the event promises to bring insight, inspiration and a blueprint for what it means to be a modern-day Wonder Woman in business.
