How Melanie Gleeson changed Australia's wellness industry

Back in 2000 when Melanie Gleeson tried to open a little day spa called Endota, the local council rejected her because they assumed she was opening a brothel. Two decades later she now oversees the Endota empire - Australia's biggest spa network, a booming beauty product business, and a therapy beauty school. While she has helped shaped Australia's billion-dollar wellness industry, she is also a thought-leader in how women work and has many things to say about what women need to thrive and survive in the workplace (and we couldn't agree with her more). See if you do too.
