Hey, I'm Shay. Marketing right-hand gal. Content & Social Media Manager. Business BFF. Global Explorer. Health & Wellness Enthusiast. Foodie. Mum. 

I help wellness, lifestyle and parenthood brands grow online with purposeful content, engaged communities, and a lot less overwhelm.

Post Two_edited.jpg

With over 12 years of experience (and a mum’s instinct for what actually resonates), I’m here for founders and brands juggling all the hats, the ones who care deeply about what they do but need someone to take content and comms off their plate.

About Us

Let’s keep it simple.

Not sure what to share, when to share it, or how to keep up with all the content things? That’s where I come in. From socials and emails to blog posts, product pages and partnerships, I help founders and small teams build a consistent online presence across the platforms that matter. Marketing doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. Just do the right things, well.

Storytelling is my power.
I bring calm to the chaos and help you show up with content that connects. Not as an agency, but as someone who gets it - your brand, your values, your goals.

A little about me.

I’m a South African living in the UK, with 12 years of marketing experience across global brands, startups, and founder-led businesses. After eight years in Hong Kong, where I co-founded a parenthood-focused consultancy, I now run Shayped.
 

I know what your customers are feeling, searching, and scrolling through, because I am one. A wellness-obsessed working mum of two, who reads food and skincare labels, practices reformer Pilates, and knows what makes a brand feel truly helpful.
 

When I’m not deep in strategy or content plans, I’m wrangling two beautiful, snack-loving small humans, saying yes to a cheese board, or testing my glutes in class.
 

Three words that describe me? Grounded. Organised. Caring.
