Storytale Studio
Storytale Studio
Speaker Coach Partner
Storytale Studio guides business owners through the territory most brands never explore: who they actually are.
Based in Brisbane, we're strategic storytelling guides for founders building meaningful companies. Guides who help you discover what's already there, buried under borrowed language, market pressure, and the weight of trying to sound like you belong.
Our work is rooted in a simple truth: your brand isn't a thing you build. It's a story you've been living. We guide them to excavate their beliefs, map how decisions have shaped them, assess what needs to exist, and bring everything into alignment.
The result isn't just a brand. It's infrastructure: decision filters that accelerate choices, visual identity rooted in character, and stories that turn the audience into advocates. Because the brands people love aren't built on tactics. They're built on truth.

EKS Consultancy Group
EKS Consultancy Group
Partner
EKS Consultancy Group is founded on the belief that great leadership begins with authentic connection.
Liz has rebuilt her life more than once. She knows what it means to start over, to lead under pressure, and to find purpose in the hardest moments. That kind of experience doesn't make you a theorist — it makes you useful.
With over 15 years of experience across higher education, research, and organisational development, Liz works with leaders and teams who are ready to go beyond the surface. Through EKS Consultancy Group, she offers coaching, keynote speaking, workshops, and training — not to hand people a formula, but to help them find what's already true in them. Because the leaders who make the difference are the ones who bring their whole selves — and aren't afraid to do so.
Elqo
Elqo
Partner
Most people know they need to communicate better, but have no idea where to actually practice. Elqo is an AI-powered platform that gives you a space to rehearse presentations, pitches, and conversations, then get real feedback on what to fix.
You track your speaking metrics so you can see your improvement over time. Imagine a personal speech & communication coach in your pocket: short daily sessions that build a skill most courses skip entirely. If you want to sound more confident the next time it counts, Elqo is worth trying.
