Get Confident!

Confidence isn’t something you wait around for — it’s something you build. You don’t need to fake it. You need the right tools, the right mindset, and the right guide. That’s what I do. I help you make it real.

Confidence = Success & Happiness

Studies have shown that when you believe in yourself, you unlock doors to greater success, deeper happiness, and more fulfilling relationships. Confidence allows you to take bold steps toward your goals, speak up for what you want and deserve, and connect authentically with others. It’s the foundation for a life where you feel empowered, resilient, and ready to thrive—no matter what challenges come your way.

My Backstory

After graduating from UC Santa Cruz in 1995, I set an ambitious goal: make a ton of money, retire young, and enjoy life. By 22, I was on track. As a top producer at a Silicon Valley tech-consulting firm, I managed over 100 consultants, generated over 2 million dollars of revenue and manaed over 100 consultants throughout the state of California. My clients included Fortune 500 companies like Charles Schwab, Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, AT&T and many more. I had a huge private office with a beautiful view and a closet full of expensive suits.

Just as the ink was about to dry on a promotion that would have increased my annual earnings to a quarter of a million dollars…

The universe intervened.

A repetitive strain injury left me with chronic pain in my hands and arms, and I was rated 40% disabled by the state of California. Overnight, my career, income, and confidence collapsed. I felt ashamed, "less than," and terrified for my future. Basic tasks like eating or dressing became excruciating. With 99.99% of professions requiring hand use, I felt unhireable at 23.

But I refused to give up. I realized my voice was my only tool to survive in a hand-dominated world. Over time, my hands healed enough to live without 24/7 pain, though flare-ups persist. This forced pause gave me space to redefine success—not by money or titles, but by perspective, self-esteem, and fulfillment.

My journey was dark and tear-filled, but I dove in with mindset, confidence and perseverance. I rebuilt my life, pursued my passions, and proved the naysayers wrong—despite my disability and the shame that came with it. Today, I’m proud of who I’ve become and the growth I’ve achieved. I want others to feel that same pride—not just in their accomplishments, but in their inner strength and self-love.

I am living my best life as an author, speaker, and coach. I am thriving in a beautiful home in my dream neighborhood, and engaged to an amazing, loving partner. From tragedy to triumph, I’ve built a life I’m deeply proud of—and I’m here to show you how to do the same.

"Elle was one of the first coaches I worked with in the coaching world when I was new to my profession, helping me with confidence. It was so amazing and exhilarating, and Elle was so supportive and put her heart and soul into it, and she was on top of everything and very organized. I think I took it for granted and just assumed that this is how coaching and coaches work….until afterwards I explored other coaches in niches I was interested in...and quickly realized, oh wow —a lot of people don’t know what they’re doing. Elle was one of the best coaches I’ve ever worked with."

Janice

"I hired Elle to help me write a book. Best decision ever. I had been mulling over an idea for a program but I could not find a way to structure it that made sense to me. The details were overwhelming. Elle not only helped me formulate a plan to organize my project, but also helped me create weekly action steps to keep the writing process on track. Elle’s health expertise was an added bonus as she was able to dive in to and understand the intricacies of my writing project. The weekly accountability combined with her no nonsense approach, is a perfect combination. Highly recommend!"

Julie

"Elle is amazing! I have had a book idea in my head for about 2 years and haven’t been able to write it. Elle helped me get from 0 to 30K words in just a couple of months! She also shared a ton of information about publishing and online presence, which was invaluable. She basically taught me everything I wanted to know about getting a book out there. This was a bargain and I highly recommend hiring Elle if you have something to write!"

Betsy

"My project was to workshop my second book via posting about it on Instagram and Facebook. I have a lot to say and I know that as I post more and more of my thinking, the more the pattern of the book will reveal itself to me. And by posting on social media before I actually put the book together, I got feedback and responses from readers which was extremely helpful to me. Because of hiring Elle for this - I’ve gone from zero posting on social media, to doing it all the time. Also, Elle over-delivers over and over and over. I cannot recommend her enough! Elle is not only an incredible help with writing, she was amazing with helping me understand social media technology. Worth every penny."

"I took in a live, group-coaching version of Elle's confidence course. She has vast knowledge in this area and she provided excellent direction on how to approach uncomfortable situations in a practical and effective way. I was able to apply the principles learned in real-life applications throughout the course. This was definitely one of the best investments I have ever made. I must say this was LIFE-CHANGING!"
