About Us

Founded in 2017

From small beginnings in Pottsville in 2017, our community was born from a simple belief — women in business thrive when they’re supported, connected and inspired.

What started as a handful of like-minded women meeting locally has grown into a vibrant, empowering network stretching across the Tweed and Byron region. Today, Tweed to Byron Women in Business brings together entrepreneurs, creatives, founders and professionals who value community over competition, and collaboration over isolation.

We exist to:
✨ Create meaningful connections
✨ Share knowledge, skills and real experiences
✨ Support women at every stage of their business journey
✨ Build confidence, creativity and courage
✨ Provide spaces for growth — through events, masterclasses, panels and collaborative conversations

From our early meetups to our sold-out events, masterclasses and now new initiatives like Tweed to Byron Kids in Business, our mission remains the same: to uplift the women (and future young entrepreneurs)

who shape our region.

This is more than a business group.

It’s a community built on heart, honesty and shared ambition.
It’s a place where ideas grow, women rise, and success is celebrated together.

Welcome to Tweed to Byron Women in Business —
where connection creates momentum, and women create the future.

Visibility: shining a light on local women doing remarkable things

Meet Katie, Founder

Katie wears many hats in life – Wife, Mum, Nannie, Sister, and Daughter – and brings with her a wealth of experience, resilience, and a passion for community.

Originally from Sydney, she made the move north in 2015. In the very same week, she sadly lost her beloved brother, which became the catalyst for her to pour her energy into volunteering. Katie quickly became an integral part of the St Ambrose Primary School community, starting their biannual fair and helping coordinate countless events.

Her giving spirit has always been a driving force – from raising thousands of dollars for Breast Cancer fundraising lunches and the Leukaemia Foundation in Sydney, to supporting local causes here on the Tweed. Alongside this, Katie built a career as an event stylist, honing her creative flair and love for bringing people together.

In 2016, she founded Kakes & Biscuits, which began as a teepee business and holiday workshops, before evolving into a Casuarina-based space for community events, creative workshops, and corporate gatherings. By 2019, it became a hub for connection and creativity, and in 2024, Katie expanded again, launching Blossom Creative Events – a dedicated corporate events service that continues her mission to unite people and support the community.

Katie’s journey is one of passion, creativity, and generosity, and we’re thrilled to have her facilitating events for our network of inspiring women in business.
