Elle Stewart of Colour My Pot has been named as a finalist in Creative Entrepreneur Award in the 2025 AusMumpreneur Awards.
Created by sisters Peace Mitchell and Katy Garner, the AusMumpreneur Awards celebrate the achievements of Australian mums in business across a wide range of categories, including business excellence, product innovation, customer service, sustainability, and technology.
“There are so many incredible women right across Australia balancing motherhood and entrepreneurship, and these awards are a chance to share their stories and celebrate their success,” adds Katy Garner.

Elle is excited to be named a finalist in the AusMumpreneur Awards and is proud of her business and personal achievements in the last 12 months, including navigating her staff and studio through Cyclone Alfred whilst recovering from emergency spinal surgery in February 2025.
Balancing business and motherhood comes with numerous advantages, as Elle describes it: “Every day, I am enveloped by love, support, friends, family, and color.”
While managing a thriving business and raising five children with her husband Rory, to whom she has been married for over 20 years, can be quite demanding, Elle offers this encouraging advice to those considering launching their own venture: “Believe that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to.”
Thanks to support from Business Events Victoria, this year’s prestigious event will be held in regional Victoria for the first time, showcasing Geelong as a thriving hub for innovation, creativity, and women-led business.
“This event offers women an opportunity to find connection, support and inspiration while also celebrating their success with others who understand the journey of business and parenting.” explains co-founder Peace Mitchell.
The AusMumpreneur Conference includes keynote speakers, networking sessions, workshops, and panel discussions focused on leadership, visibility, and business growth. It is designed to support women at all stages of business—whether just starting out or scaling nationally.
The event will culminate in a glamorous awards gala at the AusMumpreneur Conference on 11 – 12 August in Geelong, where the 2025 AusMumpreneur Award winners will be announced.
