This Is What It Really Means
TESTIMONIALS FROM WOMEN JUST LIKE YOU
Caroline has been both a mentor and a sounding board for me. She’s endlessly generous with her time, always ready to offer guidance, wisdom, or just a listening ear. Whether you’re a client or a fellow broker, you can count on her for honest advice, deep industry insight, and unwavering support.
As a self employed sole trader, getting a mortgage was tricky – until I met Caroline. She found a lender that could work with me and understood my circumstances and I was able to buy my dream home.Since then, we’ve kept in touch and she’s supported me to step up my game business wise as well as in my personal finances.
I was thrilled to be asked to read an advance copy of her book The Leverage Effect. Wow! This really is a game changer and has opened my eyes to even more possibilities for me to achieve more and set myself up even better for a secure future.
I urge all business owners to read this if you want to play a bigger game.
I know what it feels like to carry the weight of building a business while trying to build wealth. I’ve been there – making the big calls, learning from my mistakes, and discovering the power of leverage the hard way.
Hi, I’m Caroline.
For more than 20 years, I’ve guided thousands of Australians through the mortgage and finance maze. But it didn’t start there. My journey began with rejection, setbacks that knocked me flat, costly mistakes, and plenty of self-doubt. I learnt the hard way what it takes to back yourself when the odds feel stacked against you.
I believe money isn’t about spreadsheets and stress. It’s about freedom, choices, and the confidence to back yourself. And with the right strategy, structure, and support, I know every woman can stop playing small and start building the life she deserves.
That’s exactly why I do what I do today, so other women don’t have to stumble through the same roadblocks alone.
The Leverage Effect
is the resource I wish I had when I was starting out.
When I was building my business, no one handed me a guide on how to borrow strategically or how to use property to create wealth. Instead, I learnt through rejection, setbacks, and costly mistakes that could have been avoided with the right knowledge and support.
I wrote this book to give self-employed women the tools I had to figure out the hard way. Inside, I share my own journey: navigating lenders’ secret checklists, setting up your business for growth, and using property to create long-term wealth and the strategies I’ve used with my clients. You’ll also meet women who’ve gone from overwhelm to ownership, and discover how they borrowed wisely, bought like a boss, and built the life they once thought was out of reach.
If you’ve ever thought, “I should be further ahead by now,” this book is your turning point.
