Who am i
Meet Trudi McMullen
Hey there! I’m Trudi McMullen, the heart and soul behind Balance & Bloom Consulting. As a mum of three and a business strategist, I know a thing or two about juggling life’s many hats. I’m here to help you grow your business sustainably, without sacrificing your precious family time.
My Journey
My adventure started in the lively world of casinos as a croupier. Talk about a wild ride! From there, I wore many hats: an international corporate travel agent, a systems technician for the Australian government, and then took a well-deserved break to raise my trio of wonderful kids. During this time, I kept my entrepreneurial spirit alive by running various businesses from home.
Post-kiddos, I dived back into the workforce, transitioning from an administrative role to marketing and office management. However, the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic brought about extreme burnout while managing a remote team and homeschooling. This experience was my catalyst to becoming a certified Pumpkin Plan Your Biz Strategist and Transformational Burnout Coach.
What We Do
At Balance & Bloom Consulting, we empower parents—especially mums—to grow and scale their businesses sustainably. I help ambitious women, aged 30-45, navigate the tricky waters of balancing family and career. We focus on service-based businesses, giving you the tools to avoid burnout and achieve a thriving work-life balance.
