    Born from a desire to build social connection.

    Port Phillip livers, lovers and workers are an eclectic mix of social and business groups.  We are unique, diverse, entrepreneurial, creative and have plenty of heart, soul and smarts, but mostly we are authentic, welcoming, and respect and celebrate each others differences.

    Founded by three local entrepreneurs, Georgie Stayches, Vesna Grdjan and Alison McDowell, are passionate about our place, our people and developing social connection.

    In 2019 we celebrated our first International Women’s Day Breakfast and since then we have been building the Live Love Work Port Phillip concept and look forward to bringing you more events and opportunity to build social networks with the people who live, love or work in Port Phillip.

    Navigating Now is a series of webinars hosted by Live Love Work to help businesses Navigate Now.

    Local stories connect people and help build a sense of belonging for locals and visitors alike. That’s why we have worked to introduce local businesses and share their stories and connection to our community.

    In 2023, we celebrated the amazing women who lived, loved, and worked in Port Phillip! We wanted to recognise these women who were making waves in our community, and we invited you to join us as we highlighted these inspiring individuals.

    On Friday 5th March 2021 we celebrated the heart, soul and smarts of the women who live, love, work and run businesses in Port Phillip at our 2021 International Women’s Day Breakfast.

    Thank you for celebrating 2020 International Women’s Day with us. And proudly celebrate we did.

    It was a great event, for a great cause. We were thrilled to see so many women in the room filled with laughter, personality, dreams and kindness, the qualities we all look to embody.
