We are all everyday women creating extraordinary in our everyday world.
She is your sister, friend, Mum, your next door neighbour. She's  inspired. She's courageous. She's smart + compassionate. She wants to be known for more than just a great Mum, or sister, or wife or friend. She's passionate + intuitive. 
She is an agent of change. And she is already enough.

I am a woman.
I am full of wonder and compassion.
I absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, want to leave the world 
better than when I got here.
I’m not afraid of a challenge and I love what’s possible.
I am authentic, courageous, supportive and full of wonder.
I am an Everyday Woman Creating Extraordinary in Our Everyday World. 
And who I am is already enough.

About Melissa Haupt

Hello! My name is Melissa Haupt, an Australian who has spent the last 5 years in the USA and so now I actually kinda sound like an Ausmerican. It gets very confusing for people. I'm always asked 2 things in life. 1. How do you pronounce your last name? and 2. Where are you from?

I now live back in Australia with my husband {we met in the US - yep, he's American}. I moved back because in April 2013 I founded Lily Anne Designs - a social selling company that is a vehicle for change. My story is obviously more involved, afterall, I did miss out on a whole lot between birth and April, 2013.  {If you must, there is a little blurb about me below}. 

However, I want this website to be less about who I am and more about the impact we can have in the world. I am here to inspire possibility. {It's my purpose}. 

So, that's the reason for this website. Enjoy being inspired into the word of possibility! 

A little about me:

• I'm an everyday woman creating extraordinary in our everyday world. 
• When I grew up I wanted to teach or be an entrepreneur {not that I even knew how to spell it - I just knew my Dad was one} or be a back up dancer for Madonna. 
• I've discovered the value of not trying to be someone else and just be me. 
• I've lost count of the number of times I have thought “I can’t do this!”.
  
• I believe who you are is already enough and there aint nothing about you that needs “fixing’.
  
• I've learned - It’s never about the money.
• I like to think we're all purposed here for something unique with the strengths and talents to create it.

A little about Lily Anne Designs:

Lily Anne means Pure Blessing. I named the company Lily Anne for two reasons. 

1. Lily Anne is my daughter {whom I have not yet met}. You see my husband and I have been challenged to have children. But, we believe we are destined to have a family and have chosen the names of our children. So, yes.. Lily Anne is the name chosen for our daughter. It means Pure Blessing. 

2. My company is a social selling company created for social change. It supports Australian women's lives with the ability to have their own social selling company that support them in providing financially for their families. This is just the beginning. Stay tuned for more about that. 

So, yes, Lily Anne Designs is a social selling company. Our product is centred around personalised lockets. Beautiful lockets that you can choose from and then hundreds of charms you then choose from to wear inside the locket. It's all about saying "This is who I am and who I hope to be."
