This week on 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘒𝘢𝘵, I’m joined by the inspiring 𝗘𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗱 — 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸, speaker, author, and a powerhouse advocate for global women entrepreneurs. 🌍

We had such a rich, soul-fueled conversation about what it really means to live and lead with intention.

Elle shares how she went from leading a $3.2B oil and gas project to creating a global community that supports women from 23+ countries — helping them build businesses and lives that feel aligned, empowered, and fulfilling. 🙌

𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼:

▪️ How to break free from the “shoulds” and choose YOUR version of success
▪️ The power of conscious living + holistic life planning
▪️ Why movement (yes, even dancing!) is key when you feel stuck or overwhelmed
▪️ Her multi-author books, podcast, and in-person global events
▪️ Small, intentional shifts that bring you back to YOU

Elle’s mission is bold and heartfelt: to impact 50,000 women in the next 5 years by helping them embrace every area of life, not just business. 💫

Before launching her network, Elle built a powerhouse international career in leadership — from spearheading a multi-billion dollar crude oil system to leading brand-building initiatives in the tech space. Today, she uses that same strategic brilliance to empower women worldwide to step into their fullest potential.
