Rebekah Hatfield

Rebekah Hatfield (Bek) is a Bundjalung, Darumbal, and Wiradjuri woman dreaming along the Northern Rivers of New South Wales. A storyteller at heart and a weaver of words, disciplines, and community, Bek works across multiple platforms to uplift voices and create spaces where culture and collaboration can thrive.

With a background in Media (Journalism & Communications), Filmmaking, and Business, Bek has always sought to merge creative vision with real-world impact. She founded Ngoodjida in 2020 as a way to share stories and strengthen connections, while also navigating her career in the Higher Education sector. What began as a creative outlet has grown into a national consultancy, where Bek brings cultural integrity, strategic insight, and a deep respect for First Nations knowledge systems to every project she undertakes.

Her work is grounded in the revitalisation of First Nations culture, language, and governance. Whether through consulting, teaching, or weaving, Bek believes storytelling is not just about capturing voices—it’s about empowering communities to self-determine their futures.

Beyond her consultancy, Bek is an artist and weaver, creating pieces that carry story, spirit, and connection. Through teaching and collaboration, she passes on knowledge and celebrates culture—guided by the belief that stories are threads of understanding, weaving meaning through our world, and carrying the power to heal, inspire, and transform.
