A note From Our editor

I started High Flying Design because the most valuable lessons I've learned haven't come from those at the height of success, but from women who are still building their dreams. These women make decisions with incomplete information, keep showing up, and openly share the challenges they face. I wanted to create a platform to support and uplift these women.

Growing up along Essex's sunshine coast, I rarely saw women who had built something of their own or followed a creative path. Although I tried the 9-to-5 route and was “successful” at it, it never truly felt like I was contributing to something that genuinely mattered.

This feels like it matters.
