About Helen

I am a mum of a large brood (7 children) and Oma to 6 grandchildren. (My grandchildren have been my invitation to learn how to play again!) I am married to Philip and we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary in 2024. I love reading, podcasts, history, walking/hiking, all things water and laughing. I love to read about the mystics and am attracted to all things mystical. I have enjoyed working in the non-profit space for many years. I started to try to slow down my life in 2015 and have been on a quest for a ‘slowed down spirituality’ ever since. I love that Spiritual Direction offers a place to deeply listen to the whispers of God’s divine presence (or absense) in an unhurried space. My two core values are spirituality and curiosity. I believe a lot of people are looking for Spiritual Direction but they don’t know it exists! I am so grateful that I have been introduced to a network of contemplatives in the last few years. My life is rich and full.

Built my first site in 2000 and steadily learned what it takes to make websites work. Dabbled in WordPress back then, still do. Since building my first Squarespace site in 2016, I’ve been impressed with the relatively streamlined approach to website design and development that Squarespace offers compared to WordPress. SEO was a major challenge from the start — I’ve spent a lot of time keeping up with what’s required to get sites working, ranking well on a SERP. I have confidence with what Squarespace offers for SEO.

Having worked for more than 10 years in the web team of an inland, regional university in Australia and dealing with frustrations that come with working for a large corporate enterprise, the idea of setting up my own web design business became my goal.

Set up my business in late 2017. Opted for a sea change, too: I now live on Coochiemudlo Island 45 minutes from Brisbane. Love working from home. Love working for small business clients. Still get casual work with the university.

Challenges? The main one is pricing my work for small businesses. Doing quality work, doing the research to be up to date in the industry, takes time; it’s hard to factor in this time to my pricing while being competitive in the market and affordable for many small businesses.
