About Elizabeth
Elizabeth is the co-founder of the WALT Institute where she teaches leadership that promotes self-awareness, self-regulation, social intelligence, psychological capital, and agency, with integrity and transparency.
Growing up in New Zealand as the youngest of nine, she suffered bullying, sexual abuse and never felt like she fitted in. Her story shows how anyone can triumph over adversity, deep pain, and limiting beliefs to rise up and step into their own power with authenticity.
She is renowned for her ability to empower women in STEMM to believe in themselves, accomplish greatness and stand out from the crowd. Her articles have been published in international academic journals, American Reporter, Yahoo finance, Medium, London Daily Post, California Herald, and Thrive Global, and she has presented at several international conferences.
