Flipping the Script on Your Life Story With Louisa Jovanovich

What if the story you've been telling yourself your whole life - the one that feels so true, so real - is actually the thing keeping you stuck?

Louisa Jovanovich grew up believing she wasn't smart enough, wasn't good enough, wasn't "the one." And yet the evidence told a completely different story: six figures in her twenties, a house at 28, co-writing books, raising two kids, building a business. The real shift didn't come from doing more - it came from realising she'd been carrying the wrong story all along.

In this conversation, Louisa shares how she turned those old narratives upside down, the wild twist of accidentally ending up in rehab at 16, and why rewriting our stories is the key to unlocking freedom, confidence, and a life that actually feels like ours. Let's dive in!
