What if the only thing standing between you and everything you want… is the image you hold of yourself?
At ELEVATE 2025, my business manager and executive assistant, Elizabeth, stood on stage and shared her story. A story of growth, grit, and identity transformation that proves what I’ve taught for over a decade:
Change your self-image, and you’ll change your life.
Elizabeth isn’t someone who typically seeks the spotlight. She works quietly behind the scenes, building systems, managing client experiences, and supporting me in the daily rhythm of this business. But when she walked on stage, she gave every woman – every leader – a reminder that we all need to hear:
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need the perfect background. You just need to decide who you’re becoming and get to work seeing yourself that way.
From Lost to Aligned
Seven years ago, Elizabeth returned from years of travel feeling completely lost. She was grieving the sudden loss of her best friend. She had no career plan. She felt directionless and stuck in unhealthy relationships. Then, during a walk with me on the Wynnum foreshore, I asked her a simple question that changed everything:
“If you could have anything, what would you love?”
Her answer: “I’d love to own my own home.”
It was the first time she had allowed herself to truly want something. She journaled it. She wrote the vision. She began to reprogram her self-image to match the version of herself who was a homeowner and within 10 months, she bought her first home before age 24.
And she didn’t stop there.
A New Standard, A New Identity
Elizabeth didn’t just change where she lived. She changed who she was.
She went on to buy her second home in 2022 and has now settled on her third property before turning 30.
She healed her body and released 25 kilos; not through punishment, but through love and self-respect.
She left toxic relationships behind, rebuilt meaningful friendships, and called in a relationship that makes her feel safe, seen, and secure.
She upgraded her wardrobe, her energy, her confidence, and most importantly, her self-image.
Every result Elizabeth achieved wasn’t luck. It wasn’t timing. It wasn’t effort alone.
It was identity. It was self-image.
She saw herself differently… and the world rearranged itself to match.
The Work Is Never Done
Here’s the thing about self-image work: it never ends. You don’t do it once. You continue to refine, evolve, and elevate the way you see yourself.
That’s why every high-level leader I work with, no matter how successful, comes back to this work again and again.
Because without a powerful self-image, results slip through your fingers.
You might hit the goal, but you won’t hold it. You might manifest the opportunity, but you’ll self-sabotage it. You might feel excited… but not equipped.
You weren’t born to hustle harder or shrink yourself to fit the past.
You were born to grow into the next, boldest version of you.
So here’s what I want to ask you:
If you could have anything, what would you love? And more importantly, are you ready to see yourself as the person who already has it?
Because when you do, everything changes.
