More about Patrick
Our family is chasing a dream of a new adventure launching an app called Toytle. Our kid safe marketplace equips parents to partner with their kids, empowering them to buy, sell, and trade toys with complete parental supervision, and while learning valuable life skills along the way like financial literacy, communication, and responsibility. We have a unique and inspiring story about experiencing great loss (both the loss of a job, and the death of a Father due to Covid), yet not letting our circumstances dictate our future. We’re honored and excited to share our story to encourage and inspire others however we can.

And here I am on a journey to create a life worthy of me and invite others to do it for them, too.

Over 10 years ago Frankie crowd funded her training as a graphic designer. It’s fair to say she doesn’t look at problems the same way everyone does.

And when pregnancy took her flourishing freelance career a few steps back, when she felt isolated amongst parents with full-time jobs, she didn’t settle. She searched. She got creative.

As her first child was born, so was ‘Doing It For The Kids’. Through a blog, Instagram, award-winning podcast and thriving community, she’s forged a second family of freelancers juggling kids & business.

Finding her feet, her people, her niche.

And along the way, finding a co-mentor in Steve Folland (yep, of Being Freelance).
Together, they took to figuring out how to run their ridiculously big side projects around everything else.
