Core Values. Wise Choices. For Life
under this brand, we are creating, developing and sharing stories to connect and reconnect with the Diamond within founded upon 12 Core Values, and how they enable Wise Choices For Life: Fiction, biographies, e-learning, motivational works, facilitation tools, touchstones, interactive spaces.
There is so much more.
The origin story is an expression from the heart of the creator to convey a very simple concept to teenage girls, in an enchanting way: Inside we are all beautiful, unique Diamonds and our Core Values enable us to make Wise Choices for Life. Elyssa White imagined a beautiful, spinning Diamond with 12 Core Values, identified over many years, engraved on in it’s facets, to illuminate and inspire. The beautiful Diamond has touched more hearts, and we will keep telling the stories of finding that light within.

“The Message is The Diamond, not only in what it says, but in it’s beauty, even it’s music, it is enchanting. After experiencing the Diamond, even if one of us, like you, or I embrace some of the values in our daily lives, and make wiser choices, that would be amazing". Elyssa White
As the framework for all works produced under our banner, the Diamond itself will be re-imagined into an interactive, multi-media environment, rich with experiential learning resources, real-time support, social connection, in a fun and safe space, crossing cultures, regions, and socio-economic barriers. The Diamond is intended to be an evolving resource with funding and appropriate sponsorship.
We welcome your expression of interest.

12
An original fictional novel by Elyssa White, 12 is a vision quest. Virtual and real Australian worlds collide as teenage girls with completely different lives are called to the core of the Diamond. Core Values and Wise Choices are put to the test and heroines emerge. Characters are based on authentic teenage stories; every girl will see a reflection of herself.
"Alone, Aurionne was able to look directly into the Diamond and the Diamond responded 'Close Your Eyes and Picture your Core as the most dazzling Diamond in the Universe. When you see it clearly in your mind’s eye, concentrate on these Words:
I am Kind. I Respect, Myself and all Beings. I Stand Up, and Know when to Seek Help. I am the Real Me. I find Peaceful Moments. I Search to Know. I Express My Creativity. I am a Friend to All. I Forgive and Give. I am Focussed. My Goals belong to Me. I Honour Who I Am. I Speak my Truth
Words possess Power Aurionne. Repeat this whenever you do not feel it, because the words are coating you. You are constructing your Diamond Armour. You will begin to sense it's protection. It will never leave you".

“I may not yet have mastered all of the Core Values, however Kindness is in my Heart of Hearts”
Elyssa White 2022
"In my personal opinion, born from years of studying core values in my professional life, empirical research, input from many sources and my own life experience, checks and balances (which I am willing to share) I firmly believe if these 12 core values are embraced, even if it is step-by-step, the outcome will be confidence, pride, head held high, wise choices and a clear direction into adult life".
