Award Brags
Some of our proudest moments have been when nominated in some very prestigious awards 🏆 and then, to be announced winners, runners up or finalists in these has been incredibly rewarding, satisfying and hugely complimentary to all the hard work by my myself and those who have believed in me and helped me through the highs and lows of the rollercoaster ride of small business.
We have been nominated as a finalist in Australian Small Business Champion Awards 2023, Australian Women's Small Business Awards 2023 and
Australian Small Business Champion 2024 🤩
A super special night was attending the "Australian Women's Small Business Champion Awards 2022" event at the Star Casino in Sydney with my partner, Geoff, my brother Michael and his beautiful wife, Justine 😄. We walked the red carpet and had a hoot, what an honour it was being nominated and such a privilege to attend and meet so many other amazing women in small business - THANK YOU 😊
