#097: Start With What You Have! with Mi Elfverson

How a mission takes confidence, bravery and a little bit of crazy!

A mission takes confidence, bravery and maybe a little bit of crazy…such is the experience of this week’s guest. Her own little bit of crazy yielded not only the launch of her career in high-end film, TV and commercial production, but also a working visit to war-torn Bosnia with UN/IPTF peace-keeping forces.

Mi Elfverson is the founder of The Vlog Academy and creator of the EyeStorm community. She has worked with global agencies and renowned Hollywood block busters, including James Bond and Harry Potter films, and here she shares how her experience of creating extraordinary opportunities has led her to support other women to step into their power and share their expertise.

This episode is for women who feel a deep calling to serve, but aren’t quite sure where to start.  


MORE ABOUT MY GUEST: MI ELFVERSON

Mi Elfverson is a brand photographer and business vlog expert, born in Sweden but living in the UK since 1999. After a magnificent 25 years in high-end film, TV and commercial production, Mi founded The Vlog Academy. In beginning to teach vlogging, she discovered a massive difference in confidence between men and women in front of the camera, and she soon created the EyeStorm visibility programme for women, to begin to address the imbalance.

From Stockholm to LA, New York to London, she has worked with global agencies and renowned Hollywood blockbusters, ranging from Kellogg’s and Volvo adverts to the James Bond and Harry Potter films - but nothing gives her more joy than seeing a woman step into her own power and start sharing her expertise.

Founder - The Vlog Academy

I'm a brand photographer and business vlog expert, born in Sweden but I’ve been living in the UK since 1999. I now reside by the sea in Hove.

I’ve always loved visuals and the creation of flow in a story, and I went straight to film school in Stockholm and carried on to study film at university and production at New York Film Academy.

After a magnificent 25 years in high-end film, TV and commercial production, I founded The Vlog Academy, where I now offer training both in front and behind the camera, as well as professional video production and brand photography.

As I started teaching vlogging, I soon understood there was a massive difference in confidence between men and women even at a corporate level – my EyeStorm visibility programme for women was born.

EyeStorm has now grown to become an award-winning community, which supports women to step forward with more confidence and a stronger voice, to elevate women’s position in society and encourage equality for all. We offer confidence training, events, workshops, networking, walks and talks around matters for women in the UK and globally.

From Stockholm to LA, New York to London, I have worked with global agencies and renowned Hollywood blockbusters, ranging from Kellogg’s and Volvo adverts to the James Bond and Harry Potter films - but nothing gives me more joy than seeing a woman step into her own power and start sharing her expertise.

I teach at universities and hold corporate workshops, I’m a keynote speaker and panelist at business conferences and podcasts in the… Read More
