For lives that don't fit a job

Practical courses and mentoring for people building income around the life they've chosen - or the one that chose them.

Start with The NDIS Pathway: how to set up and run your own small NDIS support business, step by step.

Why Little Piece Exists

Life rarely goes as planned.

Maybe you stepped away from work because childcare isn't viable, you're supporting someone with disability or chronic illness, or an ageing parent. Maybe your own health or mental load makes traditional jobs impossible.

You have skills, experience and heart - but work that fits real life feels out of reach.

I know, because that's my life too. Little Piece exists to help people like us build flexible work from home - properly, and without pretending our lives are simple.

No MLMs. No reselling. No hidden upsells. Just practical tools, clear steps and honest support.

Introducing: The NDIS Pathway

From "where do I even start" to your first client.

Everything I've learned running Beautiful Lights, laid out step by step: setting up safely, connecting with clients genuinely, and running a business that's compliant and doesn't burn you out.

What you get:

- Seven modules - setup through to your first client and beyond

- Every template and form I actually use, ready to fill in

- A monthly live session with me

- A student group so there's always someone to ask

I review the content every year and update it when the NDIS changes something big. You keep access to all of it.

Hi, I'm Mel

Little Piece grew from my own experience rebuilding after burnout while caring full time.

I spent over twenty years in professional roles - including audit, HR and compliance at the ATO - before life made traditional work impossible.

So I built something different.

Beautiful Lights has been running for two years, earning around $70k a year working under 20 hours a week.

Little Piece is where I show you how.
