  • “I was brimming with pride, sitting at our table with my family while my daughter told us all the thing she learnt I was thinking, Like yes, this does make a difference. What you do, does make a difference. I feel stoked as a Mum to be able to give my daughter this opportunity. It is the way forward. I truely believe it.”

  • “This is the space I wish I had growing up. She came home more open, more grounded, and more confident after each session.”

  • "I honestly can’t thank you enough.. my heart is so full  to see my girl so happy to just ‘be’.. to be her authentic self and  feel proud of that… she felt connected, worthy and understood. What a gorgeous and fulfilling experience.. we are so grateful.”

Meet Elle

Hi, I’m Elle — founder of Pretty Bold. Supporting girls through the pre-teen and teen years isn’t just my work — it’s my passion.

After navigating my own challenges with mental health growing up, I know how overwhelming and isolating those years can feel. I created Pretty Bold to be the space I wish I had — where girls are seen, heard, and supported as they grow into confident, connected versions of themselves. Through education and honest conversations about what’s really going on, we empower them to understand and embrace who they are.

There’s nothing more rewarding than watching a girl begin to believe in herself or seeing our mentors create powerful spaces of connection and growth.
