~ Creating Be Brilliant Now ~

~ Born for the Spotlight ~
Julie-Anne began her love for the world of entertainment when she was only 8 years old, modeling in TV commercials, magazines, catalogues and poster boards. Fascinated by the Film, TV and Event industries in particular, she chose to work through her school holidays as an assistant in a Casting Agency. At 18 she had a job in a Video Production Company, by 19 she was managing a Modeling Agency before landing her first role in TV as a Production Assistant at 23. Skyrocketing up the ladder she was a Producer within 15 months.
Over the next 13 years spanned an exciting career producing an array of spectacular light entertainment shows: Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Test Australia – National IQ Test (Australia’s most watched program in 2002), The Ray Martin Show, Comedians For A Cause, The Price Is Right, Sydney 2000 Olympic Games Opening and Closing Ceremonies, Crown Casino Opening Ceremony Melbourne, Australia, TV Week Logie Awards, ADIDAS Originals Spring / Summer Trade Launch, L’oreal Colour Trophy Awards to name a few; harnessing the talent of some of Australia’s favourite stars.
But whilst Julie-Anne’s external world looked like a dream with tremendous success, her internal world was a place of trauma and quiet desperation where she felt alone and out of control.
~ Personal Sadness ~
At the fragile age of 6, Julie-Anne had already experienced her first traumatic event when her dad died suddenly from a heart attack. She never realised the enormous impact the turn of events to follow would have on shaping her life: her beliefs, values, attitudes, decisions and even how she felt about herself. It was a dark unforgiving past fuelled with heartache, and hurt, anger, humiliation, and isolation – she did anything possible to numb herself from the sadness that harboured within.

~ Get strategic. Get a life. ~
By the time Julie-Anne reached her late 20s she knew she had to do something dramatic to set new standards and change the way she thought and felt about herself. She experienced very high, highs and extreme lows and this emotional rollercoaster was taking its toll on her and those she loved most. She felt as if being safe and conservative was the way she was going to move forward more happily, but instead it shrank her confidence. Looking back it was because she was scared. It was as if on a very subconscious level she was thinking, “If I go out into the world again, if I do brave, daring things, I’m going to get into trouble.“ She was sick and tired of living in the shadows of blame, feeling like she was living life on the sidelines – it was time to claim her spotlight but HOW. It took several years to realize she couldn’t do this next step by herself and that’s when she discovered Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP).
NLP is a manual that tells you how to run your own mind. It’s a unique set of tools that help people model excellence in all its forms, changing internal habits that in the past seemed to be hard-wired. The philosophy and techniques she learnt were creative and logical which made Julie-Anne hungry for more. At 35 she took a sabbatical from the industry she loved and devoured everything she could on mind mastery and how we can heal physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
~ New thinking for better results ~
Julie-Anne felt broken, and she fixed it. What had happened to her, tore her apart, and she figured out ways to make herself strong and healthy again, so she wasn’t ruined by her past. She took control. She knows how tough it was and how hard she’s worked to get over the horror. To not only move on but to vanquish it all together. And so re-emerging with a new movement, Julie-Anne established Be Brilliant Now. She is highly sought after, to support you in blasting away your own illusionary obstacles, both personally and professionally. She acknowledges that both strength and change starts at home and in order to continue as outstanding leaders, we must move forward as an example, not a warning. Julie-Anne believes that by partnering together, this is the fastest, most effective and powerful way to support and encourage those we influence to create positive and spectacular results in their own lives. Julie-Anne’s personality and energy allows her to engage on a deep personal level. Known as the Blockbuster Mentor, because without apology (and with your permission) Julie-Anne challenges your thinking, questions your assumptions and nurtures your heart. She’s articulate, passionate and authentic with her soulful desire for brilliance.
~ A Tribute To Dad ~
Living and breathing what she teaches, Julie-Anne is currently in pre-production of her most ambitious project to date. A feature-length theatrical documentary called “Mourning Hope”. On a personal level, this is a tribute to her Dad. On a world-vision level her message is, ‘Don’t wait until it’s too late to live a rewarding, brilliant life that is already within your reach, right now.’
