21 Apr Meet Leah Dortmann
Leah Dortmann is a woman who wears resilience like a crown. From the discipline of the Royal Military College Duntroon to the confronting realities of working in the corrections system, Leah has faced trauma, PTSD, and anxiety head-on. Refusing to let those experiences define her, she chose to rise. Channeling her pain into purpose, Leah found an unexpected outlet in pageantry—quickly making history as the first-ever Mrs. Galaxy Oceania, placing First Runner-Up at Miss Galaxy International, and now reigning as Mrs. Universal Petite Australia 2025. Her journey is a testament to what’s possible when you stop letting your past hold the pen and start writing your own story.
Beyond the stage, Leah is a sought-after keynote speaker, master trainer, and passionate advocate for mental health and self-empowerment. With a Masters of Business (Advanced), she leads with both heart and strategy—coaching women to overcome self-doubt, embrace their story, and own their power. She also serves as a lead cycle instructor and master female trainer, empowering others through movement and mindset. Whether she’s on stage, in the studio, or behind the scenes mentoring others, Leah’s message is clear: resilience isn’t about what happens to you—it’s about what you choose to become because of it.
