REBEKAH KAMSKY
(AUTHOR)
Rebekah Kamsky is a mum of two boys, a creative with too many ideas, and an entrepreneur who knows that sometimes the hardest part is just getting started. After years of juggling a constant flow of creative projects, she realised that ideas, no matter how big or small, should never just sit around, they deserve to be brought to life.
Great Ideas Start Somewhere stems from Rebekah's own entrepreneurial journey, created to inspire children to believe in their ideas and take action. When she's not writing, chasing after her boys, or capturing moments through photography, Rebekah runs her business, Little Isle Studio, where she helps others turn their creative dreams into reality, always believing that every idea holds the potential to grow into something extraordinary.
