Team Lead & Founder
LEAH WALTERS
The dream for Elle was birthed in Leah's heart in 2014. The concept of gathering women together to encourage, inspire, and empower one another, burned with fiery passion in her soul. She credits Jesus for saving her life, redeeming her past and fuelling a passion in her to share the Word of God. Her hope is to see all women fall in love with Jesus, to be changed by His Truth, and to live out their life with love and purpose.
