Lilly Jones – Patch Foundry

I’ve had the pleasure of working with a variety of small and big clients, locally, nationally and internationally. Helping them build and grow their brands through thoughtful design, marketing, and websites that actually work. I’ve played the role of designer, developer, copywriter, photographer, videographer, marketing coordinator, project manager, and more. I also share what I’ve learnt along the way as an online tutor at UniSA Online, and on-campus tutor at UniSA where I teach students the ins and outs of web design and digital media.

I love collaborating with businesses to strengthen their online presence and find fresh, practical ways to solve problems, big or small. When I’m not designing websites, you’ll find me playing soccer, at the local farmers’ markets, spending time with friends and family, walking my dog or enjoying the beach.

Diala Jamal – own your life

I’m Diala Jamal, a Holistic Health & Mindset Coach passionate about helping women unlock their potential and create lasting change. My journey started in radiography, but my personal battle with malabsorption, chronic fatigue, and lack of direction led me on a path of true healing.

Now, as a certified Ayurvedic consultant and mindset coach, I help women discover their unique body type, restore balance, release trapped emotions, overcome past traumas, and break free from habits that hold them back. My biggest conviction comes from my own transformation—proof that you can move from merely surviving to thriving with purpose and vitality.

I love connecting with women who crave more for their life, as well as referral partners who share my mission to inspire holistic well-being. Let’s join forces to help others feel healthy, motivated, and unstoppable.

Jenny Davies – A J’s Simply Latex

When you first meet me I can be a little quiet and reserved, until I get to know people then I relax. I am fun loving, happy and easy going person who love a challenge and is always willing to help.

15 years ago I packed up my home and life into six boxes and made the big move, on my own, to SA to start a new relationship and have been happily married for 14 years. I have two grown up children, from my previous marriage, now 36 and 39 who chose to remain in the UK, both have happy in life and have successful careers.
Before leaving the UK I worked for a leisure/hospitality company as Business manager firstly at a gallery and craft centre and then a leisure centre. I love technology, am an Apple fanatic, and had always dreamt of working for them. That dream came true in 2013 when I was lucky enough to join an amazing team for the opening of the new Apple Store in Adelaide.

When I retired, in 2018, I imagined spending my time gardening, collecting cacti, playing video games, being Treasurer for the Cactus and Succulent Society, maybe taking up a craft and enjoying the beautiful environment I live in, just having a relaxing time. But that’s not me as I soon discovered that this wasn’t enough, I needed more, I got restless and bored, so I put together a plan to start up an online business.

Rosemary Caruso – Johnston Withers Lawyers

Since starting my career at a small firm in 2001, I have practised in a number of areas, including wills and estates, family law, commercial law, and tax law.
I now specialise in wills and estates and help with practical advice about estate planning, simple and complex wills, enduring powers of attorney, and advance care directives. And when things go wrong, she likes to assist with estate disputes – including making or defending claims against the will or challenging the will itself.

With a particular focus on making the estate administration process as straightforward as possible,I am here to help with grants of probate, and letters of administration.

I joined Johnston Withers in 2022 after heading up one of SA’s largest wills and estates teams for over 10 years. I am a northern suburbs local and have always worked in the Salisbury area and continue to work at Johnston Withers’ Adelaide and Salisbury offices.

I am a longstanding member of the Law Society of South Australia’s Succession and Elder Law Committee as well as the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners’ SA Branch.

I have an academic background in engineering and law, and bring a uniquely analytical perspective to the team and I use this to find innovative solutions.

I understand that wills and estates can be a sensitive matter, and I pride myself on providing empathetic, practical advice to my clients in a timely manner.

Outside of the law I am married with two teenagers who keep my hands full but still find time to squeeze in an early morning F45 session. I also enjoy spending time with family on our 21 acre property in the northern suburbs.

Kate Phillips – Relok8

Hi, I’m Kate Phillips — founder of Relok8, a premium home packing and unpacking service helping busy families move house without the stress. I’m also a mum of three, flight attendant, horse lover, and proud chaos-tamer.

Relok8 was born from my love of turning overwhelm into order. We don’t just pack boxes — we help families declutter, edit, and settle into their new homes feeling calm, organised, and ready to enjoy life again.

Jana Le – Mind to Mind Psychology

I’m Jana — a Clinical and Health Psychologist and Director at Mind to Mind Psychology in Adelaide. I’ve spent over a decade supporting adolescents and adults with complex mental and physical health challenges, from trauma and chronic pain to neurodivergence and burnout.
These days, I lead a lovely team of psychologists and admin legends, balancing therapy with mentoring, practice growth, and creating a workplace that feels supportive, human, and genuinely connected.

I’ve worked across hospitals, private practice, and regional SA, and I love blending evidence-based therapies with a warm, down-to-earth approach. I’ve also co-authored academic papers in the areas of health psychology and quality of life — but I get just as much joy from meaningful conversations and lightbulb moments in everyday life.

Outside of psychology, you’ll usually find me in the sun with a book or a puzzle, testing out a new recipe, at a sip-and-paint night, or doing something creative like pottery (with very mixed results). I love connecting with curious minds that are interested in building things that matter — and I’m always up for a conversation that inspires growth.

Sophie Perreard – Elevate Coaching and Leadership

About me: I love working with and alongside people, especially women, and seeing the moment a fresh insight turns into confident action. My career has stretched from leading global emergency operations during large scale humanitarian crises (like Darfur, Haiti, Sri Lanka…) to University lecture halls, where I developed and taught courses in Women’s and Child Protection at Aix Marseille University, co-designed Deakin’s Master of Humanitarian Assistance, and launched a Francophone Post-Graduate Program in Humanitarian Leadership. Along the way, I formalised my practice as a professional and life coach, providing a thread that connects every piece of my work.

Today, I blend course and training design, facilitation and coaching to meet people where they are. Clients value my calm and approachable presence, curious questions and the way I tailor learning journeys that let emerging, mid and senior-level managers, women founders and purpose-driven teams experiment and grow safely. Clients trust the evidence-based learning journeys we build together, complete with analytics that show real return on investment, as this is of key importance for me. Whether co-creating a strategy on a whiteboard, coaching on Henley Beach or facilitating team virtual workshops, my goal is always the same: open opportunities for growth and positive impact.

Beyond work, I share Elevate Coaching & Leadership with my husband Phil—after many years, we finally tied the knot on the beach in March 2025. Our ragdoll cats and ‘office assistants’, Ollie and Archie, keep a watchful eye on the home office. The kitchen is my other classroom for experimenting with dishes from around the world. Passionate about gender equity and social justice, I’m a lifelong learner, always studying something new because curiosity keeps life and leadership, moving forward.

Jacqui Woodall – Safe Hands SA

Hi, I’m Jacqui, founder of Safe Hands SA, where we make First Aid, CPR, and workplace safety training practical, relevant, and (dare I say it) actually enjoyable. I’m based in Adelaide and work with businesses, schools, and community groups across SA to build confident responders and stronger compliance.

I believe first aid should never be just a tick-box; it’s about knowing what to do when it counts. I’m also passionate about supporting other small businesses—whether it’s sharing resources, booking local, or cheering loudly from the sidelines.

Rebecca Brock – Brock Fabel Design

I’m Rebecca Brock, Founder and Principal Designer at Brock Fabel Design, a boutique architectural firm based in Adelaide. With over 20 years of experience and a Bachelor of Architecture, I’ve had the privilege of running my own practice while balancing family life. I enjoy a collaborative approach to the design process with a personal interest in sustainable solutions and providing beautifully tailored buildings.

Andrea Shaw – CPR Communications

With over 25 years dedicated to communications and relationship management, one thing stands out above all else – connection is at the heart of everything! I’m passionate about building meaningful relationships and creating genuine connections between businesses, communities, and people. I combine solid business acumen with a deep sense of empathy and understanding, ensuring every interaction is thoughtful, authentic, and impactful. At the core of my work is the ability to relate – connecting with people on a personal level, understanding their needs, and fostering open, meaningful conversations. Whether I’m building relationships with stakeholders, engaging with communities, or collaborating with project teams, my goal is always to create lasting, positive impacts.

Sadie Goddard-Wrighton – Sadie J Wellness Coaching
