Style coach, personal power advocate, family girl and your right hand; dedicated to helping you make the impact you were born to make!

A message from Alma...

Born and raised in Spain, I went from working in a big corporation as a financial auditor in Barcelona to being a public speaker as an image expert in Canada.

Helping people to find their true essence and give them the tools to learn how to style themselves, has always been my passion.

Now, afters years of experience in the industry, being a mom and living in Australia, I help beautiful and powerful women all my techniques to wake up in the morning and put together looks that will make the impact they deserve. Just because you're a woman and a mom, and a wife, it doesn't mean you're not able to have a confident, bright and powerful presence.

If you're proud of who you're, you'll set the perfect example to your children and your clients, agree? Happy mom, happy family!

My mission: Inspiring you - Fabulous, Smart, and Powerful friend - to proudly show to the world how awesome you are.

My goal: Providing you with the tools to open the door to dressing with confidence and projecting the best version of yourself.

I've worked with top executives, teachers, lawyers, personal trainers, students, and lots of entrepreneurs in the past.

They all had one common goal when they contacted me: feeling confident dressing and grooming in their everyday personal and professional life.

In Alma's world, having a put-together and current image is not on the outside, but on all the positive emotions that come from it. It's all about embracing who we are, loving it and highlighting our favorite bits and pieces!

I've been described by many as professional, positive and energetic; the fact that I am Spanish has a lot to say about my enthusiastic personality!

Those who have attended my events say I deliver empowering, interacting and fun programs.

I thrive by connecting with people and seeing them evolve and bringing out the best in themselves.

Dream & Do - Creative agency for start-ups, business visionaries and dreamers everywhere... Ideas : Graphic Design : Brand Storytelling : Artwork : Creative Content FREE Book for the first 11 Lucky Ladies Lounge Listeners!!! - Get Your Hands on Dream & Do's free book http://www.dreamanddo.com.au/freebook Our purpose is to 'help people create their own destiny by giving them the courage to DO what they always dreamed of.' We offer start-ups and small businesses great design, branding and creative thinking to paint their vision and connect with their customers. We love business and believe in the power of creativity to transform businesses into brands. We believe that creativity is the edge in a knowledge economy and dreaming is the first step to creating a new reality. Today, Dream & Do is a start-up creative agency, buttomorrow, it will be so much more. Dream & Do will be the world class brand for following your dreams and it's 'Dream Team' will be pioneers of creativity. Dream & Do has a small team of highly creative, caring individuals that have an alternative view on the world. We don't have enemies but if we had to pick, it would be trends and monotony. We are thinkers and explorers and are constantly pushing ourselves to the edge of our creativity, expanding it with every project. We are not driven by 'making things look pretty' or winning design awards, but turning incredible ideas into reality for good people that deserve success. Tara Shelton Founder & Creative Director, Dream & Do (BIO From 'B&T 30 under 30' award) It was 2012 and Tara wanted to create gifts for girls, made by girls, minus the cheese factor of inspirational messages. She founded her first company, a beautiful hanky brand called Moi Self. Her hankies were featured in InStyle, Vogue and Hello May, and hanky stocks in New York and Hong Know, Tara's design and creativity was highly recognised with an incredible win of Young Designer of the Year. But one company wasn't enough for Tara. Just under two years ago, she founded her second business, a design and branding agency called Dream & Do in Sydney. It's clear Tara has creativity bursting out her every pore. And creativity is what she says every business needs. Ideally, Dream & Do will move beyond an agency and into a creative space with a café and bookshop attached. One downside in the design industry though, she says, is the lack of originality. "A lot of designers out there simply provide aesthetic answers that are on-trend to briefs rather than strong thinking, design and creativity. There's a lot of talking design lingo and pulling the wool over clients' eyes, which is an inauthentic way to do business. We try to break down those barriers." With a new little bub gracing her apartment the notion of finding balance between work life and home life is becoming much more apparent to Tara. And when asked to describe her attributes in no more than five words, she said: "Passionate, creative, dedicated, positive, authentic."

Leanne is the Founder and Owner of Cozy Dozee. After 10 years of working in the corporate world, she stopped work to have a family. Leanne now has 2 beautiful boys, Master V and cheeky Master O, which is what led her to the idea for the Cozy Dozee. After constantly feeling frustrated, watching Master V's head fall forward in the car, Leanne wanted to improve his quality of sleep, relieve his sore neck and stop having to constantly turn around to adjust him. Leanne wanted him to wake up feeling refreshed and happy. She says "I recall the same thing myself in cars, trains or plane trips when I would wake feeling sore and just as tired. It felt like the nap "wasn't even worth it", as it was such poor quality and so….the Cozy Dozee journey began." After almost 2 years of research and development, working with the absolute leaders of the industry and consulting with numerous health care professionals we finally launched this product into the Australia market in November 2013 and Leanne is thrilled that we can now help so many families who had the same problems as our family did.

With a lifetime of experience as diverse as her ability to create magnificence in each transformation, Jane Brown is truly an artist.

Jane learned the art of styling from a young age, growing up in a large family where her parents travelled the world for business, importing antique furniture and silver. With new and unusual pieces from the eclectic to the classic arriving frequently, Jane's flair for integrating pieces to harmonise several personalities into one environment began to shine. Her father's own words sum it up perfectly "Just give Jane a little bit of time and she'll make it beautiful".

Later, Jane's career as an international first class flight attendant enabled her to explore a myriad of cultures, styles and philosophies on life. Through her travels, Jane came to appreciate the importance of a beautiful environment - from castles in Vienna to mud huts in Africa - and the different ways people lived.

Today, Jane's life experience has become her passion, as she brings her natural gifts and talent to the homes and offices of her many clients to create amazing transformations in their homes and in their lives.

TARYN WILLIAMS Founder/CEO of WINK Models and TheRight.Fit Instagram @TarynWilliams

Recognitions: o 2016 Finalist B&T Women in Media Entrepreneur o 2016 SmartCompany 20 Aussie entrepreneurs on instagram o 2105 Finalist Women Entrepreneur awards o B&T Hot 30 under 30 o SmartCompany 30 under 30 o Anthill top 100 coolest companies

It seems fitting for Taryn Williams that she would learn to fly a plane at the young age of fifteen, the exact same age she stepped out into the world and began her modelling career. Naturally, she's been soaring ever since and is truly a breath of fresh air as one of Australia's leading young entrepreneurs.

She has received numerous accolades including being named a Finalist in the 2016 B&T Women in Media awards, 2015 Female Entrepreneur Awards, B&T Hot 30 under 30 and SmartCompany 30 under 30. She is regularly sought out for comment in leading business publications Business Insider Australia, SmartCompany and Startup Smart.

Entrepreneurs are essentially problem solvers, and Taryn is nothing short of this definition. She started WINK Models in 2007 because she wanted to improve the existing landscape with an agency that provided clients with a higher quality service while providing a fair and supportive environment for talent.

One thing that stood out to me was the inefficiencies of the existing agencies. Models weren't getting paid for six months after a job, there was no support or union and I saw hundreds of young people unsure of the trajectory of their careers. This created a negative relationship between agencies and models. The industry needed change and I was determined to make it happen.

In 2016 WINK has flourished into a national business with over 650 talent and turnover in the millions. In 2015 Anthill named the company in its Top 100 coolest Australian companies. In true disruptive style, Taryn is again innovating the industry with her new tech startup, TheRight.Fit, a market network transforming the fashion, modelling and creative industries. When it comes to speaking engagements, Taryn will happily discuss her journey from international model to successful entrepreneur, being your own boss, women in tech, disrupting your own industry, innovation and her tips for getting a great idea off the ground.

Taryn is available for all types of business and lifestyle media, PR opportunities, event judging, fashion collaborations, speaking and expert opinion. For more, contact Samantha Dybac [email protected]

Launched in late 2015, TheRight.Fit has created an efficient way for brands and clients to directly connect with talent on projects, removing hidden commissions and bias.

TheRight.Fit is a community of models, actors, photographers, stylists, videographers, influencers and makeup artists, all in the one place, which means clients can search, book and pay all in one seamless, online transaction. Clients include; advertising agencies, creative directors, marketing managers, casting agents, fashion editorial and more.
