A Little About Us!
Hey there! We’re Patrick and Kelly FitzGibbon—partners in business, life, and probably a little bit of chaos. We’ve spent years building, scaling, and sometimes reinventing businesses, and along the way, we’ve learned a thing or two about what works (and what really, really doesn’t). We also learnt that life is meant to be enjoyed and challenged a little, and that you should always make time for family and yourself no matter the issues that may pose
Where We’ve Been
From launching startups to leading established ventures, we’ve been in the trenches. Patrick has a knack for turning ideas into scalable operations, while Kelly is the strategy and branding powerhouse. Together, we’ve built companies that didn’t just survive—they thrived. We started out business life together running a small country hotel in Australia and managed to build a eCom business at the same time which allowed us to sell the hotel and start building a brand and company that has allowed us to spend the last 10 years or so traveling and growing together
We’ve had our fair share of wins, but let’s be real—failure has been a great teacher too. Every misstep only sharpened our ability to adapt, innovate, and come back stronger.
Where We Are Now
Currently, we’re running this same eCom business, though it has had several re inventions along the way as well as a medium sized warehousing enterprise that allows us control of the supply chain for our eCom venture. Our focus is on building this Brand, helping other brand owners and people in similar life positions all with the aim of making the work/ life balance posiible and ultimatley retring with enough means to continue what we love doing on a personal level. We thrive on strategy, execution, and making things happen. If you’re looking for fluff, you won’t find it here—we believe in real results, not just good ideas.
What’s Next?
The future is all about bigger impact. We’re expanding our reach through this site and also via expanding our existing businesses. The goal? To help more people and businesses break past their limits and achieve what they didn’t think was possible both personally and professionally
If you’re looking for straight talk, smart strategy, and a team that’s been through the highs and lows of business, you’re in the right place. Let’s build something incredible together.
