Trish always fancied herself a writer, but she dutifully picked gherkins and washed dishes in a Chinese restaurant on her way to earning herself an economics degree and a qualification as a chartered accountant instead. Work took her to Canberra where she promptly fell in love with a tall, dark and handsome hero who cut computer code, and marriage and four daughters followed, which gave Trish the chance to step back from her career and think about what she'd really like to do.

Writing romantic fiction was at the top of the list, so Trish made a choice and followed her heart. It was the right choice. Since then, she's sold more than thirty titles to Harlequin with sales in excess of seven million globally, with her books printed in more than thirty languages in forty countries worldwide. Four times nominated and two times winner of Romance Writers of Australia's RuBY Award for Romantic Book of the Year, Trish was also a 2012 RITA finalist in the US.

Based between the US and Australia, Natasha Oakley is a pioneer Super Influencer with over 3.6 million followers and is a leading voice in the social media space.

Alongside her best friend Devin Brugman, the two set up 'A Bikini A Day' in 2012 as an outlet to share their favourite swimwear, which quickly took off as one of the most well-renowned marketing platforms in the industry. The huge success saw the pair co-found their own swimwear label, Monday Swimwear, in 2014, which created a worldwide recognition for the duo, not only as role models, but successful businesswomen. Recently, in 2023, the pair expanded their portfolio with the launch of Monday Body, focusing on eco-friendly activewear and everyday essentials. These days, Natasha counts Model, Presenter, Designer, Producer, Entrepreneur, CEO and Digital Influencer among her credits.

In 2020, Natasha also co-founded, and is the CEO, of The Pilates Class, a highly successful online fitness platform, generating a revenue in the multimillions and becoming one of the most internationally recognised online Pilates classes within 12 months of launching. Tash's booming businesses truly are a testament to her entrepreneurial spirit.
