The Leverage Loop

How to Structure the Business You've Already Built So a Lender Will Actually Say Yes to It, and Finally Move From Earning to Owning Six Months Later.

Then ride the same loop into your next move, and the one after that. Without working more hours, without becoming a “numbers person,” and without betting everything on one big risky move.

Who’s teaching this

Ayda Shabanz speaking at a live event

I’m Ayda Shabanz.

Born in Iran, raised in Australia. I didn’t grow up with money or connections. I left home at 14. I became my own legal guardian at 16. By 30, I’d built a $10 million property portfolio. By 40, I’d exited multiple seven- and eight-figure businesses. Because at some point I started asking a different question: not “how do I make more money,” but what actually turns a business into something you can leverage.

Not theory. The structures she is teaching you to build, built first.

The method

The Leverage Loop

The business builds the property. The property strengthens the business. Round and round, each one funding the next.

  1. 1

    Systemise the business

  2. 2

    Make it valuable and financeable

  3. 3

    Leverage into property

  4. 4

    Property strengthens the business

  1. 01

    Systemise the business

    It runs without you, so its value stops living in your calendar.

  2. 02

    Make it valuable and financeable

    Clean records, clean structure, a position a lender can actually read.

  3. 03

    Leverage into property

    The equity inside the business becomes an asset you own outright.

  4. 04

    Property strengthens the business

    Stability, security, and borrowing power flow straight back in.

  • “From an overworked, underpaid salon owner to six extra staff, a doubled salon space, and a work week down to three or four days.”

    Britanie Dyer

  • “Secured a property off-plan she says she never would have had the knowledge or confidence to pursue on her own.”

    Rachael Hedges

  • “Scaled from $60,000 a year to multiple six figures and launched her own training academy.”

What’s inside

Inside the AY.AM Group Mentorship

Six months. Six live modules. Every week, a live themed teaching session, plus a fortnightly Q&A where your specific numbers, your specific business, get worked through in real time.

  1. 01

    Money Mindset and Financial Identity

    The shift from earning to owning, and the habits quietly keeping smart women broke.

  2. 02

    Know Your Position

    Your entire financial position, personal and business, on one page for the first time.

  3. 03

    The Earning Engine

    A true, honest number for what your hour is actually worth, and a plan to raise it without adding more hours.

  4. 04

    Financial Capacity

    The reserves, debt structure, and lender-ready records that make you genuinely investable.

  5. 05

    Property Inside the Plan

    Your first, deliberate investment property, sequenced, not guessed.

  6. 06

    The Wealth Strategy

    A personalised, written wealth strategy built around you, with your next move mapped in.

The fit

Who this is for

This is for you if

  • You're already earning well through a profitable business or serious career
  • You don't yet have a clear, structured financial position
  • You're genuinely ready to restructure how your business and finances work together

This isn’t for you if

  • You want someone to find, choose, and buy a property for you
  • You're looking for overnight wealth or a guaranteed return
  • You're not willing to look at your numbers or improve your foundations
  • You want unlimited, on-demand access outside a defined structure

This program is education and strategy. Specialist legal, lending, tax, and accounting work is always handled by the appropriately licensed professionals in your situation. Ayda does not sell you the property.

Your application

What happens after you apply

  1. 01

    You complete a short application

    It takes five minutes. We ask about your business, your financial position, and what you want to build, so we can see whether this is genuinely the right fit.

  2. 02

    We review it personally

    Every application is read by a real person, not filtered by software. If it looks like a fit, we invite you to a call — and you can also book a call directly while we review.

  3. 03

    A strategy conversation

    The call is a focused conversation about your position, your goals, and whether the Leverage Loop is the right next move for you.

FAQ

Questions you might have

How much time does this take each week?
One live session per week (roughly 90 minutes) plus a fortnightly Q&A. Between sessions, you work through the material at your own pace. Most women fit it around a full-time business.
Do I need to already own property?
No. The program is designed for women who have not yet bought, as well as women who have. The starting point is your business and financial position, not your property portfolio.
Is this financial advice?
No. This is education and strategy. All specialist legal, lending, tax, and accounting work is handled by appropriately licensed professionals in your situation. Ayda does not provide personal financial advice and does not sell you the property.
What if I'm employed, not a business owner?
The program is designed primarily for business owners, but women in senior professional roles who are already earning well and want to build structural wealth are welcome to apply. The application process will determine fit.
Can I pay in instalments?
Payment options are discussed during the application process once fit is confirmed.
What if I apply and it's not the right fit?
Then we'll tell you honestly. Not every application is accepted, and that's by design, this only works in a room where everyone is genuinely ready.

The choice is yours.

You can keep doing exactly what you’ve been doing. Or you can apply, honestly, and find out if this is genuinely the right fit to build your own Leverage Loop.
