Hey, I'm Loretta
The woman behind
Perfectly Popped Balloons.
Built from the ground up, for a reason.
Balloon artist. Educator. Mentor. Founder of the Perfectly Popped Premium Bouquet, the Perfect Pathway Membership, the Success Suite Mastermind, and the Balloon Business Guide.
And before any of that, just a woman who needed things to change — and decided to make them.
Where it Started
Here's where it all began.
There was a time not long ago when everything was falling apart.
We were on the verge of losing our home. I remember lying awake at night, panicking about how I was going to feed my son, keep the lights on, and wondering how things had got so bad. It was the kind of rock bottom that shakes you to your core. The kind that forces you to either crumble or rise.
Somehow, through the fear and the uncertainty, I rose.
Balloons were never meant to be just balloons for me. What changed everything was realising that my purpose runs deeper than creating something pretty. I found myself in the hardest season of my life and from that place, I built a business that not only saved us, but gave me the chance to help others rise too.
I now get to do what I love every single day. And I get to remind others that even when everything feels impossible, there is always a way forward.
And Where it Went
From the lounge floor
to the world stage.
In the beginning I was doing what so many of us do. Trying to juggle everything.
I was a mum, a partner, and a woman carrying the mental weight of holding it all together while chasing a dream I wasn't even sure I was allowed to have. Most days I was creating on my lounge floor, squeezing balloon jobs in between homeschooling and sheer exhaustion.
But I kept showing up. I kept learning. I kept building.
Today I have over 94,000 followers, a reach of three million accounts worldwide, Balloon Artist of the Year 2024, and a Master Balloon Professional title. I have sold out events in record breaking times and headlined training events around the world. But I still take bookings. I still create because nothing compares to the magic of bringing someone's vision to life with balloons.

To help balloon artists realise they are capable of so much more than they've been told.
I know what it feels like to doubt yourself. To feel invisible. To wonder if you are ever going to make it. But I also know what becomes possible when you are given the right support, the right tools, and someone in your corner who truly gets it.
My goal isn't just to teach you how to build beautiful displays. It's to help you build a beautiful life. One where you feel confident showing up, where you're booked and respected, and where your talent finally feels seen.
This isn't about surface level success. It's about real transformation — in your business, your mindset, and your belief in what's possible.
I lead with heart, determination, and the knowledge that solutions always exist. I'll be your biggest cheerleader as we turn your vision into reality.
