It’s been a tough week.

Like many providers, we’ve felt the impact of recent NDIS changes. Funding cuts and uncertainty are making it harder for participants to access support.

But every time I spend time with our participants, I’m reminded why we do this.

For more than five years, COCO Support Services has supported people through SIL, respite, community participation and personalised disability supports.

Our focus has always been the same: people come first.

We have SIL homes in Wangaratta, Clyde and Geelong, with capacity to grow where there is genuine need.

We’re also grateful for the incredible Support Coordinators we work alongside, who advocate tirelessly for participants every day.

Right now, we’re supporting participants affected by funding reductions and will continue fighting alongside them.

If you need support, guidance, respite, SIL or community participation, please reach out. And if we’re not the right fit, we’ll help connect you with someone who is.

I’ve been so excited to finally get some new photos done for both StellaFortis Consulting and my personal projects.

A new chapter, a new season, and stepping into my 40s with so much gratitude, growth, strength, and vision. We all change, grow, evolve, and continue becoming who we are meant to be.

These photos capture more than just images — they capture the journey behind everything I’ve been building with love, passion, resilience, and purpose.

Welcome to the Stella Coco era — on another level ✨

A huge thank you to the amazing Felisha for capturing these beautiful moments so perfectly, and to Effie, Ammar, Brooke, and the incredible CoCo team for all of your support, encouragement, and belief in me and the business. I’m so grateful for every single one of you.

The vision is growing, the energy is different, and this is only the beginning 🤍
