Why the Impactful Voice Project™ Exists
People carry stories they think no one could understand. IVP exists so they never have to carry them alone. I created the Impactful Voice Project™ because I know the weight of silence. I know the fear of speaking without safety. I also know the freedom that rises when a person feels seen, supported and understood. IVP is a place where lived experience becomes personal truth, and personal truth becomes impact.
Truth:
Every story holds meaning. Every voice holds value.
Safety:
People need a place where honesty feels possible and judgement is removed.
Impact:
When a story is shared with intention, it can change lives, communities and systems.

The Impactful Voice Project™ | What Makes Us Different
Most storytelling initiatives focus on the story.
We focus on the storyteller.
The Impactful Voice Project™ is the only Australian movement dedicated to helping everyday people turn lived experience into authority, visibility, and social impact. We don’t curate stories for our own platform or limit who gets to speak. We empower individuals to understand, own, and articulate their experiences with clarity and confidence, and then give them a platform where their voice is valued, respected, and amplified.
Where others create programs for specific causes or demographics, we serve the whole human behind the story. Your background doesn’t determine your eligibility. Your lived experience does.
And unlike writing programs, advocacy groups, or trauma-focused initiatives, IVP bridges a unique gap:
storytelling + personal authority + gentle visibility + social impact.
We guide people to speak with calm confidence, share with purpose, and use their experiences to help others feel less alone. Your voice isn’t just heard here, it becomes a catalyst for change.
Lived Experience at the Centre
This project is built by someone who has walked the hard road, done the inner work and now leads from the integration rather than the injury.
A Safe and Measured Approach
No pressure to disclose anything private. You choose what you share and how you share it. The focus is on your meaning, not your memories.
A Movement, Not a Moment
IVP is building a global space where people are seen, supported and encouraged to speak with purpose.
Our Work Is Built on Three Pillars
Reclaim your voice and be heard in a safe, supportive space.
Turn real experience into insights that help others grow.
Create ripples of change in your life, your business, and your community.

Meet Rose Davidson
Voice and Story Mentor
I’m Rose Davidson, a Voice and Story Mentor who helps people turn lived experience into clarity, confidence, and meaningful impact. My work brings together storytelling, education, and empowerment, because I know what it feels like to live unseen, unheard, and without a safe space of my own.
The Impactful Voice Project™ is where this mission becomes a movement. It is a home for real stories, human courage, and the kind of visibility that creates change. I built IVP so that others can step forward with the support, safety, and dignity I once needed but didn’t have.
Today, I lead a curated, one-of-a-kind storytelling initiative designed to help everyday people — survivors, leaders, creatives, and changemakers — transform their lived experience into something powerful, purposeful, and deeply human.
Your voice matters. Your story matters. And IVP exists to make sure it can be heard.
What People Say About Working With Rose
Over the years I have had the privilege of supporting business owners, survivors, and changemakers through podcasting, mentoring, and lived-experience work. Below are some of the words people have shared about the impact of my work and the spaces I create. Their reflections mean more to me than any award.

Champion Of Unheard Voices
"Rose is compassionate, empathetic, and fully inclusive. She represents everything this award stands for. One of her missions is to help people be listened to and valued, no matter their background. She is supportive and genuine in everything she does, helping people have a voice who normally would not have that opportunity."
Quiet Tenacity
"Rose has consistently delivered her podcast and connected with business owners and DV survivors and supporters for years because she has quiet tenacity. I have watched her growth in business, self awareness, self respect, and self love both behind the scenes and from afar."
More Impact Than She Realises
"She is giving, professional, kind, and funny - and she makes a bigger difference to people's lives than she knows."
Turning Challenges Into Purpose
"She has a heart of gold. Her challenges become learning experiences that help her grow, but also help her make a real difference for others. She has the runs on the board. She has delivered for so many - it is time she is recognised."

What Are the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals?
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global priorities designed to create a safer, healthier, and more equitable world by 2030.
They focus on the biggest challenges facing humanity — inequality, violence, poverty, education, safety, and well-being.
Each goal is a call to action for governments, communities, and organisations to work together for meaningful and lasting change.
At their heart, the SDGs are about building a world where every person has the right to safety, dignity, opportunity, and a voice.
This is the foundation for stronger communities and a future where no one is left behind.
Why These Goals Align with The Impactful Voice Project™
The Impactful Voice Project™ exists to amplify lived experience, spark understanding, and build safer, more connected communities.
