Beloved Authentically You Community! We just hit 100 members in the community ~ and I want to celebrate with you! 🥳 🌟 I’m giving you The Confidence Road Map (with a short video tutorial) totally free. Here’s why… Have you ever hyped yourself up to film, hit record, and suddenly your voice feels off, your hands don’t know what to do, and the whole thing ends with a frustrated “delete”? 😅 I’ve been there too (and I’ve been on camera for 20+ years). The truth? Confidence doesn’t come from fancy gear or memorizing a script. It comes from knowing who you are the second the lens points your way. That’s exactly what this Road Map helps you do: ✨ Discover your natural on-camera strengths ✨ Spot the fears + overthinking that trip you up ✨ Create your own “confidence anchor” so you feel grounded every time you hit record This isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about amplifying what already makes you magnetic. 💡 And the best part? You can come back to it anytime you need a reset. 🎁 Grab your free Road Map here. <--- pdf download in this link Thanks for being part of this milestone. I can’t wait to hear what shifts for you once you dive in. To your camera confidence, Elfina 💖

Hi beloved members! It’s been a minute since I shared a proper update. This summer has pulled me in a lot of directions - tending to family, taking care of life, and honestly, somewhere along the way I lost my Skool fire. 😫 IYKYK. But here’s the thing I realized: fires don’t always burn at full blaze. Sometimes they smolder low while we turn our attention elsewhere. And that’s okay. Stepping away doesn’t mean the fire’s gone, it just means it’s waiting for you when you’re ready to return. I talk about this all the time: it’s okay to reset. To give yourself grace. To tend to the rest of life and then come back. When you do, you realize the flame was still there all along, just waiting to be fed again. And so…in true Skool spirit - my Skool fire has been rekindled.🔥 Being back on set recently, in an actual TV production green room reminded me why I love this work so much. (And yes, our Green Room here is every bit as real 😉). That experience reignited me. It reminded me how powerful it is to have a system, a ritual, a flow that gets you showing up confidently no matter what’s happening behind the scenes. And it brought me right back to our mission: impacting a million people by helping you grow your audience and actually love being on camera while doing it. We’re still on our path, step by step, and this community is a huge part of it. So with that fire back, I created something special for you: 👉 The 5 Videos in 5 Days Playbook A repeatable batching system that takes you from A-Z in 5 steps. Is that even possible? 🤓 It’s simple, it’s structured, and it’s the exact process I use to save time while still keeping creativity alive. Normally, I only teach this inside the Green Room but I distilled it into a playbook for you to use right now. Here’s how to grab it. I’d love a little exchange. If you share your experience so far inside our community in one of these ways: - A 5-star Google review (if that feels true to you) here. - Or a short video reflection posted right here in our community → post it & tag me & @Yukta Kandhari

"Work for a cause, not for applause. Live life to express and not for impress. Don't strive to make your presence noticed, just make your absence felt." ~ Author Unknown Because people may not always remember what you say. But they will remember how you made them feel. If you are truly present and dropped into your truth, this energy is felt through the camera lens to your audience and that is the fastest way to cut through the noise of the online world. Feel your way through. Always. Happy Saturday! ~ Elfina 💖

Authentically You is evolving - and I couldn’t be more excited to share this next chapter with you. We’ve officially launched our premium camera confidence program: → "In the Green Room with Elfina" inside our classroom space. (The name comes from my film + TV roots...it’s the space to ground, align and reconnect to our confidence before showing up on camera - which is exactly what our community is all about!) This experience is grounded in the two pillars I’ve seen build lasting confidence from 20+ years on camera and behind the scenes with successful entrepreneurs. ✨ This is for creators, coaches, and thought leaders who are already making content but still feel stuck when it comes to how they’re showing up. You’re showing up, but something still feels off: ❌You’re second-guessing yourself on camera - your message, your delivery, your presence. ❌You’re overwhelmed by the filming, editing, or setup - and the tech is slowing you down. ❌You’re tired of overthinking every post and not feeling like you in your content. ❌You’re constantly thinking about content — but the pressure to keep up, do it right, and stay consistent is burning you out before you even hit record. This space is here to shift that - from the inside out. 🎬 On-Camera Presence We’ll focus on your delivery, clarity, and expression so your message lands...and you feel good doing it. 🛠️ Behind-the-Scenes Systems You’ll learn simplified workflows - filming, scripting, editing, lighting - that make it easier to stay consistent and supported (without burning out). This program was designed from the heart...with creators and thought leaders like you in mind. I’m currently offering a few special bonuses for new members and I’d love to connect if you’re curious about whether this is a good fit. 🔥Book a free confidence call with me here. “Confidence, like art, never comes from having all the answers; it comes from being open to all the questions.”— Earl Gray Stevens
