Biography

IRON [def] - strong will, determined, an unbreakable force
FOENIKS [def] - rebirth, personal transformation, rising to become the highest self

Hello there! My name is Elizabeth and I have been writing creatively for over 10 years. My passion for helping others reach their full potential has driven my career path and I am constantly seeking new ways to inspire and empower. In my workshops, I focus on strategies for individual growth, therapeutic benefit and developing a positive mindset. As a writer, I aim to share my experiences and lessons learned to connect with readers and help them on their own journeys.

The name Iron Foeniks stands for creativity, resilience and personal growth. Being a highly driven Type-A personality, I am passionate about teaching the tools and techniques I’ve learned over the years to foster healthy habits and unshakeable confidence. I truly believe that everyone has the power to create the life they want, granted that they’re willing to work hard and stay true to their vision. Because the real magic happens not when you’re waiting for someone else to change your life… but when you take charge and start creating change yourself. And this – learning to shape your own reality – is the core of what Iron Foeniks is all about.


Levelling up and taking ownership of your life is not glamorous though, as any person who has embarked on this journey will know. More often than not the process resembles buying a packet of seeds to sow – inside of the packet they’re safe, protected from the elements, but they’re not going to grow. In order to grow they have to be covered with soil, exposed to sun and water and only then they will sprout. In this same way, as long as we remain caged in our comfort zone, we’re not going to evolve into our fullest potential.


But how do we navigate this process of improving our lives? Where to start? This is exactly where I can help. Sign up for The Power of Poetry workshops for a fun, interactive opportunity to learn how to use words as a unique tool for inner transformation. Or download my free guide, The Optimized Daily Routinewhere I share an invaluable selection of tips and techniques to supercharge your day. Don’t feel like reading factual books? Perhaps my novel, Behind the Mask, will give you the inspiration you’ve been craving.


All the information shared here is based on extensive research and personal experience, so you can trust that it will be helpful to you. I’m always open to collaborating and sharing knowledge, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’re interested.


Let’s work together to create a world of confident, empowered individuals chasing their dreams.
