She Believed She Could… And So She Did: How Elizabeth Tran Built a Thriving Web Design Business

Building a successful business doesn’t start with confidence — it starts with courage.

In a powerful full-circle conversation on The She Believed She Could™ Podcast, Elizabeth Tran shares how belief, mentorship, and taking bold steps before feeling “ready” helped her turn a side hustle into a thriving web design and SEO business for women entrepreneurs.

This story isn’t just about business — it’s about becoming.

Who Is Elizabeth Tran?

Elizabeth Tran is the founder of Digit-Eli, a website design and SEO studio that helps women entrepreneurs and small business owners build beautiful, high-impact online brands. With a background in marketing and a master’s degree in web design, she blends strategy and storytelling to create websites that reflect her clients’ confidence, credibility, and vision.

She has been featured by TEDx, TLC, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and today she is known for helping purpose-driven women step into greater visibility and growth through powerful digital branding.

From Corporate Burnout to Digital Entrepreneur

Like so many women, Elizabeth followed the traditional corporate path after college, searching for stability and security. But repeated layoffs showed her that corporate life wasn’t nearly as stable as it seemed.

Instead of shrinking, Elizabeth leaned into what she already loved — designing websites, helping women tell their stories online, and building beautiful digital brands that reflected real impact. What began as a side project during COVID slowly turned into the foundation for something much bigger.

Why Belief Is the Catalyst for Every Breakthrough

Elizabeth didn’t start confident.

She started scared.

Hiring her first assistant.

Raising her prices.

Leaving corporate.

Each step felt uncomfortable — but each one expanded her capacity.

With Allison Walsh’s mentorship, Elizabeth learned that confidence doesn’t come before action — it comes from action. Every bold move reinforced what was already true: she was capable of far more than she realized.

How Mentorship Accelerates Women-Led Business Growth

One of the most powerful themes of this conversation is the role mentorship plays in entrepreneurship.

Elizabeth credits Allison for believing in her long before the success was obvious — helping her map income goals, create milestones, and reverse-engineer a business that could support the life she wanted.

When someone reflects your potential back to you, you start to step into it.

The Real Secret Behind Successful Women Entrepreneurs

Elizabeth’s journey shows something most people never see:

Successful women don’t have less fear — they just move anyway.

She went from a small side gig to running a profitable web design studio, building a team, and creating financial and lifestyle freedom — not because she had it all figured out, but because she stayed willing to grow.

Why Your Website Is More Than a Digital Presence

Through Digit-Eli, Elizabeth doesn’t just build websites — she builds confidence.

She studies her clients’ stories, accomplishments, and visions, then turns them into digital spaces that reflect who they are becoming. When women can see themselves clearly, they show up differently everywhere else.

A website becomes more than a brand.

It becomes a mirror.

How to Build a Business That Supports Your Life

Elizabeth now earns more than she did in corporate — but more importantly, she has something far more valuable: time.

Time to travel.

Time to plan her wedding.

Time to build a life that feels aligned.

This is what happens when women stop building businesses out of fear — and start building them with intention.

What Confidence Really Means

When asked what confidence means to her now, Elizabeth shared something powerful:

Confidence is being okay with your decisions — even when others don’t understand them.

That’s self-trust.

That’s leadership.

That’s becoming.

Why This Story Matters Right Now

If you’ve ever doubted yourself, waited for permission, or wondered if you were really ready — this story is for you.

Because sometimes all it takes is one woman believing in another… until she learns to believe in herself.
