     “The Elephant and the Rope” metaphor, drawn from the practice of training elephants in certain cultures, serves as a powerful tale for personal growth and the triumph over self-imposed limitations. Much like the young elephant tethered to a rope, conditioned to believe in the constraints that bind it, my journey mirrors this struggle. My invisible rope, woven from the threads of low self-worth, constrained me in the form of a fear of speaking out. It's a universal experience — carrying beliefs about ourselves that inaccurately define our potential. This elephant has broken the rope and is adorned with butterfly wings to encapsulate the transformative process of change.  Emerging from its cocoon; it emphasises the imperative shift in perspective required for the metamorphosis towards our better selves, symbolising the beauty and resilience that can arise when we challenge our own perceived limitations.
