Email Profile Print Profile

Yasmin Grigaliunas is a Director and Founder of the award winning circular economy enterprise, the World’s Biggest Garage Sale (WBGS). An entrepreneur of impact and a circular economy pioneer in Australia, Yas recently closed a $4M equity capital raise to expand nationally, with Officeworks as a key investor and shareholder. Together, through expansion of reuse, repair, resource recovery and recommerce initiatives, Yas is thrilled to work with partners and investors to bring the next phase of growth, seeing her Circonomy vision come to life.

Beyond the 'showreel', Yas revels in the 'real reel'... the space and place where it's HOT… Honest, Open, Transparent! HOT is just one of the many sound bites Yas creates to synthesise knowledge and storytell through broad and deep lived experiences as an outlier.

Yas evokes emotion, inspires introspect and is boldly blunt in her unapologetic unleashed and unfiltered style. Be BRAVE, which for Yas means... Being Raw Authentic and Vulnerable Everyday.

It is positively polarising to experience the essence and energy of a truth teller human living whole. Yas is completely comfortable sharing the gritty, shitty and unpretty, evoking emotions to help others navigate their own natural flow state. Traversing transitions and championing change is where Yas is most fearless… with a friendly and fanatical fortitude to encourage and empower others to find fullness and flow.

Be warned... you'll feel one of two things when you hear Yas speak, and that’s energised or exhausted! Don’t worry though… because whatever your response, you’ll be ready to take a nap, or take things to the next level in your own life.
