in themselves from an early age.

We provide experiences that open girls minds to a world of opportunities.

FOUNDER’S MESSAGE:

“I created She Shines On to inspire girls to believe that they can follow their dreams.

As a young girl, I was passionate about dance, theatre and television, but when it came time to choose a career, I heard that tired refrain – you can’t make a living in the arts – so I became a lawyer instead.

After graduating, I lasted only 7 weeks (yes, weeks!) working in a law firm before realizing I wasn’t being true to myself.

I vowed to change this. I travelled to all 7 continents and took part in numerous personal development trainings, which lit the spark in me to create the life of my dreams, boldly and without hesitation. I began taking TV hosting courses all over the world (Los Angeles, Sydney, London), and at this very moment, I’m in LA pursuing a career in TV.

Through these experiences, I began to see that if you believe in yourself then you really can turn your dreams into reality. That’s what I want every girl to believe who comes on tour with us. There’s no greater joy than following your dreams and being true to who you really are.

Meet She Shines On. Travel, personal development, and dance all rolled into one. It’s my passion, and I want to share it with you. So you can pursue your passions, whatever they might be. ”

OUR TEAM:

Here’s the people who light the spark.
