Hey There, I’m Gaye, Founder Of Gaye Fern Designs.
I live in Australia with my husband (my bestie), in a disabilities household that has taught me the true meaning of grace, adaptability, and the power of presence. After experiencing a life-changing brain injury, I was initiated into a slower, more intentional way of living. Executive functioning doesn’t come easy anymore-but every project I complete, every product I finish, is a powerful victory and a joyful celebration. And that’s why I love what I do.
“Heart-led creator, neurodivergen soult, devoted Mumma & Nanna, with a deep love for digital products.”
FROM EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT TO SOUL-LED CEO
Before Gaye Fern Designs, I thrived in a fast-paced career as a Senior Executive Assistant In Australia’s Government Sector.
From writing Ministerials to supporting Child Protection leaders, I proudly reached the pinnacle of my career. One of my most cherished roles was serving the District Manager of Family and Children Services in the Northern Territory, where I was honored to be embraced by local Indigenous communities and even invited to witness sacred Yolngu ceremonies—memories I hold close to my heart.
That chapter of my career shaped me, grounded me, and gave me a whole new set of skills to navigate life with both structure and soul.

Building a Business from the Inside Out
My journey into entrepreneurship has been both experimental and expansive.
I’ve explored many models, but what truly lights me up is sharing what I know—and making beautiful, intentional content that helps others thrive.
Gaye Fern Designs is the meeting point of my skills and my spirit. Here, I get to channel my love for design, email marketing, Pinterest, and my new obsession: AI graphics. Every product I create is done with purpose, love, and presence—and it brings me deep joy to see a vision come to life from start to finish.
As a neurodivergent creator, I honor slowness as a sacred gift. I might take longer to complete things, but when I do—they’re intentional, infused with heart, and energetically aligned. I’ve turned my brain injury into a gateway of deepened intuition and radical self-trust.
This is not just a business. This is healing. This is art. This is soul work.
XOXO – Gaye
