Discovering Meaning Outside Corporate Life: Insights from Tania Taylor

Interview with Tania Taylor, CEO of the Be Centre Foundation and Organizer of The Sydney Skinny

In an inspiring career transition, Tania Taylor, the current CEO of Be Centre Foundation and the mastermind behind The Sydney Skinny, ventured out from the corporate world in search of meaning and impact.

Taylor, a woman driven by passion and purpose, shares her motivations for the life-altering shift, and how she juggles her responsibilities running a play therapy center and organizing an extraordinary charity event.

"Eleanor Roosevelt's quote, 'Do one thing every day that scares you,'” Taylor reveals, “has always resonated with me. I yearned for something more enriching and challenging than the confines of a corporate career. With a desire to truly make a difference, I took a calculated risk and embraced new horizons."

The Sydney Skinny, a unique nude ocean swim, came across her path, reigniting her longing to contribute positively and authentically. Now, as the head of Be Centre Foundation, she ensures children and families confront life's difficulties with the support they need.

Through play therapy, a child-centered method, Be Centre Foundation creates a safe space for kids to process past experiences and emotions in a naturally comfortable environment. Play therapy empowers children to communicate more effectively, master skills, and understand their feelings, ultimately helping them navigate through life's challenges.

Balancing responsibilities at the Foundation and coordinating The Sydney Skinny demands time and energy. To stay grounded and effective, Taylor finds fulfillment in witnessing the effect these initiatives have on the community and people involved. Running, meditation, and dedicating weekends for family are essential elements in her approach to achieving balance.

A day at the Be Centre Foundation teems with activity, stimulating storytelling from its clinical team, promoting a supportive family environment. The team, encouraged to take walking meetings and engage in grounding exercises, keeps the atmosphere energetic and nurturing.

The Sydney Skinny, preferably scheduled on the participants' annual calendar, is a global phenomenon that celebrates acceptance, courage, and melanoma awareness. Over the past 11 years, the event has contributed significantly to supporting melanoma research and education.

Looking ahead, Taylor aims to replicate and expand The Sydney Skinny across various Australian states, ultimately contributing to a national movement against skin cancer, united with the common goal of promoting sun safety and healthier lifestyles.

Collaborations with schools to introduce play therapy principles, and a trial of teleplay therapy are exciting new projects Taylor is passionate about. As the Be Centre Foundation and The Sydney Skinny evolve, so does its mission to make a difference, one step at a time.
