Every member of the Feel the Magic team began as a volunteer - deeply connected to our community and mission. Their journey from volunteering to shaping our organisation is a powerful reflection of their belief in our programs and the impact they have on grieving kids across Australia.
Meet the passionate people who now help guide and grow our organisation below.
From boardroom to mountain peak, James brings grit, gratitude, and heart to everything he does.
James, along with his wife Kristy, is a co-founder of Feel the Magic. Experiencing the loss of both his parents as a young adult, James faced the challenge of navigating grief without guidance. This personal journey inspired him to take action and make a significant impact in the world, especially children.
With a mission to change the way grieving is addressed, James and Kristy established Feel the Magic, dedicated to ensuring that no child should have to grieve alone. James is passionate about providing the right support to grieving children, empowering them to achieve their full potential despite life's challenges.
A proud husband and father to two wonderful boys, Madden and Chase, James resides on the beautiful Mid North Coast of NSW. He enjoys all that the great outdoors has to offer and embraces family life with enthusiasm and adventure.
James is committed to helping grieving kids find a path to healing and hope, driven by his belief in every child's resilience and capability.
