Louise is a survivor, a mother, a mentor, a CEO, a wife, a leader, a fighter, and a fiercely compassionate human being who refused to let her past determine her future.
She believes deeply in one message: "Your past may shape you, but it does not define you and you can rewrite your story at any moment and build a life that feels like freedom."
Her life is proof that rock bottom can be a beginning, that rebuilds are possible, that reinvention is real, and that love can return after chaos.
Louise did more than rewrite her story. She transformed it into a legacy, and now she guides others as they create their own.
There was a time when Louise’s life looked nothing like it does today. She had no thriving businesses, no team, no awards, no stability, and no safety. She was a mother of four, three of whom have disabilities, fighting every day to keep her children safe, her head above water, her spirit alive, and her dreams intact.
For nineteen years, Louise lived in a world hidden from the outside. Behind closed doors was violence, coercive control, financial sabotage, and a storm she carried in silence to protect her children.
When she finally found the courage to leave, she fled with nothing but her babies, their school essentials, a few clothes, a couple of boxes of precious keepsakes and a heart torn between fear, hope, and the fragile thrill of freedom.
But freedom didn’t come easily. The violence didn’t stop; it escalated. The post-separation abuse brought an entirely new wave of sabotage, manipulation, and control, darker, louder, and more relentless than anything she had endured before.

With the violence escalating and her children beginning to feel the impact, Louise realised she could no longer stay. She needed to protect them, to get them out, but the question that kept her up at night was how she would ever escape.
Louise did not simply rebuild. She reinvented. With no money, no safety net, and no support, she created Hunter Events Group from her kitchen table. She juggled parenting, paperwork, tears, trauma, and determination in equal measure.
She poured every part of herself into her clients and quickly became known for her heart, her organisation, her creativity, and her gift for bringing any vision to life. Within twelve months, the business that began with nothing grew into one of Australia's leading event companies.
What began as one woman wearing every hat soon became a business that managed hundreds of events and built a brand people trusted instantly.
Then the world shut down. The events industry collapsed. Venues closed. Couples cancelled. The phone stopped ringing, but Louise did not.
Her business became the vehicle that allowed her to secure housing, rebuild a home from scratch, and give her children the safety, stability, and fresh start they deserved.
Louise's motto: "If you want it hard enough, you’ll make it happen"
Louise now speaks on stages across Australia and internationally, sharing stories that break silence, ignite courage, and transform lives.
She presents on topics such as:
Motivation, Resilience and Reinvention
Sales Mastery & High Performance Communication
Leadership Development & Personal Power
Business Growth, Entrepreneurship & Startup Success
Event Management, Operations & Industry Training
Domestic Violence & Advocacy
Her story is not one of tragedy. It is one of triumph. Her voice is not just powerful. It is purposeful. Her mission is not only to succeed. It is to lift others as she rises.
