After 13 years in corporate, I bought Thankly as a part-time creative recovery project while deciding whether to return to the 9–5. Clearly, that didn't quite go to plan.

I thought I'd found Thankly, but looking back, I think it found me.

Having lost both my parents before turning 21, I know how deeply loss and loneliness shape us, and how much it matters to feel remembered.

In February 2025, I began rebuilding Thankly full-time. Fast forward to 2026, and with almost 1 in 3 Australians experiencing loneliness, I believe we're craving real human connection more than ever.

Today, we're a small Melbourne team helping people and businesses share gratitude through personalised cards and thoughtful gifts.

We're still rebuilding, but I'm incredibly proud of our growing community.

Every Thankly helps us build towards our mission: bringing Australians closer through gratitude.

Come be part of our story.
