Elle Nagy is a Self-Leadership Artist who helps women consciously create the life they desire through intentionality, balancing mindset with hearts, and taking complete authority over themselves. Through her approach, she “re-empowers” women to tap into their intuitive knowing and creative powers and become their most evolved selves. Elle grew up in a middle class South African household, where money was not always there when you needed it. She remembers wearing hand-me-down clothes, or clothes made for her by her mother or grandmother, and having a sense of shame that her family couldn't afford store bought clothes.Elle feels that life blessed her with the inability to fit in. As long as she can remember she was the "odd one out"; and the clothes and the money were just another expression of this. She remembers the first time she truly felt at home was when she touched the ballet barre at the age of 6; she remained dance obsessed untill the age of 18 when an injury ended her dreams of a dance career.She then went through a series of roles, from chartered accountant to psychologist to restaurant owner to owning a recruitment company. The common denominator in everything she has done is her genuine care for people. In her own words, Elle is a a "follow her gut instinct" kind of lady, and it's never brought her anything bad."When I look back on my life, you just need to be willing to say yes, be open minded, be adventurous, and kind of see what the crumb gives you. Everything is just little crumbs on the way, so I just keep saying yes to things. And then it takes me to the next spot." Elle NagyKey takeaways:- Say yes to life. Elle shared how she has done many things in her life, including being a dancer, a chartered accountant, a restaurant owner and a life coach. She attributes these experiences to her openness to life, and to her willingness to say “yes” to things that come her way.- Understand that life is always changing, and that decisions are not forever. Elle believes that we run the risk of losing the magic and richness of life by analyzing things to death. Recognize that the choices we make are for now rather than forever.- Ask yourself: what’s the worst thing that can happen? Elle has found that, if we keep asking ourselves this question, the ultimate answer will be that we are afraid to die. Once we can accept that death is inevitable, it allows us to consciously choose to live each day to the fullest. She says, death is inevitable, but thriving is a choice.- When going through a challenging period, rather than choosing to be a victim, Elle finds it can help to reframe and ask yourself: what is this coming to teach me? What can I learn from this? Who is it that I get to become through this process?About the guest:Elle is a Self-Leadership Artist who helps women consciously create the life they desire through intentionality, balancing mindset with heartset, and taking complete authority over themselves.
