What if the right words could change a child’s world forever? Elizabeth Thomas was on the path most people expect: earn a degree, find a respectable job, live a simple life. But everything shifted when she stumbled upon a lesser-known course in Speech Language Pathology. It was not just a career detour; it became her life’s calling. A life changing moment with a non-verbal autistic child led her to dedicate her career to helping children find their voice. Recognising how inaccessible therapy was, she co-created an e-learning platform that empowers parents, teachers, and caregivers. Through Phonologix, she partners with NGOs and schools to bring tools to those who need them most. Her story is a powerful reminder that hausla (courage) does not always speak loudly, but it always speaks with purpose. And with right financial support, her mission has found the financial wings to reach communities that need it most.
