The Cat's Pyjamas Kindness Co. Ltd

Our story. The Cats Pyjamas Kindness Co. Ltd was founded by Tracy Hill. The business name was inspired by my own father.

Storytelling Events & Workshops | South Wales | Nature, Well-being, Mental Well-being & Creativity 🌱 Storytelling Resources for Children-let your imagination run wild-collaborations welcome! The focus of the company is to provide workshops encouraging self belief, living with grief, and life after loss. Workshops include, story telling, walking in nature and business storytelling. We all have a story to tell, and the method by which we tell them, can generate opportunities, help us overcome challenges and create interest. By telling a story, we open ourselves up to another person or persons and share personal information which has the potential to forge future trusting relationships. He was a man that had an enormous amount of positivity and creativity. He never let his disability define him and it didn’t stop him living a fun and happy life. He was an inspiration and I admired his strength and courage. He fought a tough battle with cancer in later life that defeated him eventually. However, he remained dignified in his fight and found the courage to still laugh and enjoy the little moments in life. He was simply The Cat's Pyjamas. Each of the workshops are designed uniquely and stand alone, and with ‘you’ in mind. They share a common goal and that is to encourage you to be creative, be yourself and share a unique story. Being with others that are going through, or have been through similar experiences as us can help us to feel listened to and worthy. In life we can experience traumatic and life changing events, these can change our direction and our perception. However, having a coping strategy can help us to have perspective. From my own life experiences I have developed many coping strategies to help me through tough times. Having gone through some heartbreaking losses, I have often found myself struggling with ‘life’. But what I know for sure is, life does, and has to go on. Coping mechanisms are different for everyone. For me I have found that being in nature can help me and I feel safe and it's my sanctuary. Likewise, sharing my stories and speaking of my losses has helped me to accept that this is part of life and that acceptance plays a vital role in recovery and healing. You can join me and others on a walking route in nature, a storytelling workshop or a business storytelling event. You will feel safe, listened to and part of a caring community. Kindness starts with being kind to yourself. Only then can you share your kindness with others. It’s perfectly okay to put yourself first. Welcome to The Cats Pyjamas Kindness Co. Ltd

🌊 Now, let’s create a ripple:

💛 Today is World Kindness Day

Lately, I’ve noticed kindness in its simplest, most beautiful forms.
🍂During my walk to work, a stranger smiled at me and made space for me at the crossing.
🍂A kind word, or two.
🍂A thoughtful recommendation

Examples of small moments, yet each one lifted my spirits in ways the giver probably never realised.

It’s reminded me that real kindness doesn’t need an audience — it’s quiet, genuine, and often unseen. The kind that simply is ✨

So today, on World Kindness Day, I’m reflecting on the gentle kind — the everyday gestures that make life softer and more human 🌿

✨ Take a moment today to pause.

Think of a kindness you’ve received lately — something small that stayed with you.
Notice how it made you feel.

That’s the power of kindness — it lingers long after the gesture 🤗🙌

“Did you know that spending time in nature boosts creativity and helps children develop a deeper connection with the world around them?” 🌳

Our nature-based children’s storytelling activity combines the magic of the outdoors with the joy of imagination. Children explore the wonders of nature, collecting treasures like sticks, pine cones, and leaves, and then turn these discoveries into unique stories of their own 🍁

Examples in the photographs, beautifully modelled by our granddaughter 🍃

Available via Etsy 🍂

Can be posted in time for Christmas 💌

“Through hands-on exploration, creative storytelling, and team activities, your child will learn to see the world as a canvas for their imagination—while gaining confidence, communication skills, and a greater appreciation for nature.” - a gift of storytelling, is a gift that lives forever ❤️

🌳🍁 Lessons From The Forest Floor 🍁🌳

🍁The forest remembers how to grow again, there’s transformation through decay 🍂

Autumn into Winter

🍂Beneath every husk, a quiet heart waits to begin again

🍂Winter whispers: rest is its own kind of growth

🍂The forest teaches patience through its fallen leaves

🍂The quiet between seasons is where transformation hides

🍂Every ending in the forest is compost for the next beginning

What lessons can you share from the forest?

🍂🍁🍂

Hello November - Getting Ready for Winter

I was looking at an old sweater I have, the one my Nan knitted for me when I was around 14/15, and it brought up all kinds of nostalgia for me ☺️

Cable-knit sweaters, cosy and snug,
Hot chocolate swirling in my favourite mug.
Candles are glowing, the nights draw near,
Autumn is whispering, “Winter is here.” 🍁

31/10/2025

🍁 Tonight, as the light fades and the air turns cool, we step into the ancient space between endings and beginnings.

It’s a time to gather around the fire (or the glow of a candle) and share stories that shaped us. Stories of loss, of courage, of becoming 💫

Transformation begins with a story shared ✨

Tonight feels like a time to pause, and listen to the stories we’ve lived, the ones waiting to be told, and the ones we carry forward into the darker months 🌘

What story of transformation are you ready to begin? 🍂

🌳 Some Food For Thought 🍃

Sometimes it feels the further I drift from those who don’t understand my spirit, the closer I come to the ones who speak my soul’s language✨

I no longer feel the need to compete, to explain, to contort myself to be seen. That chapter is closed 🙌

Now, I walk the slower path, the one where stories unfold like petals, where depth is more important than display. Where being misunderstood no longer means being broken, but simply being rare ❤️

And in this quieter, truer place, I meet others who carry stories too vast for small spaces.

The storytellers. The feelers. The wild-hearted ones who create from love, not fear. Who understands that success isn’t noise, it’s resonance.

We are not here to win the race. We are here to remember who we are, and find those who do too.

If this speaks to you, you’re not alone.
There’s a circle forming. A fire being lit.
Your story belongs here 🔥

The more conversations I have with others around this, the more I see opportunities for all of us 🍁

🍁🍂 It’s been a few days since our forest alchemy workshop, yet the stillness of that space hasn’t left me. A sense of accomplishment, gratitude, and fulfilment is assuring me we have more to offer 🍁

We shared stories, reflections, and small treasures from nature, including, shells, pine cones and leaves, with each one holding a quiet truth.

There was peace, connection, and a deep sense of being part of something more 💫

We’re already thinking of the next one, and we can’t wait to bring it to life… 🌳✨

🍃 Nature reminds us that well-being isn’t always found in stillness, but in learning how to move gently through our own changing seasons.

Whilst out walking the other day, I came upon these beautiful flowers. There’s something quietly healing about watching the flowers move in the breeze. They don’t rush or resist, they simply flow with what is 🍃

So today, take a moment to breathe with the world around you. Let your shoulders soften, your thoughts settle, and feel yourself swaying softly with the wind 💙

✨ Where in your life could you move a little more gently today?

21/10/2025

❤️ Good morning all, it’s a bit ‘autumnal’ out there today, which is okay. I thought I’d share a story about my journey from coffee shop owner, to storyteller as we have some new people within our community🌳

Eight years ago, I picked up the keys to my very own coffee shop, I was full of vision, hope, and, if I’m honest, a touch of naivety.

Two weeks later, I learned more than I ever expected about business, resilience, and myself.

The early days were rough. Customers stayed away, challenges piled up, and a few people tried their hardest to tear us down. But I stood my ground, learned fast, and found my people, the ones who believed, supported, and returned. I was bullied, stalked, and threatened! But that didn’t stop me!

Then came lockdown, the unexpected turning point. I pivoted during the second week, kept the business alive, and re-discovered my own strength. But when burnout hit, I had an epiphany: I no longer wanted to run on survival mode. Lockdown stripped everything back and reminded me what mattered most to me, vision, creativity, and authenticity ✨

I realised:
I’m not competitive.
I’m a visionary.
I’m creative.
I won’t fit at every table — and that’s okay.
I care deeply.
And I’m done being a people pleaser.

Those lessons became gold; an alchemical journey. They led me to where I am now, balancing a meaningful role in the NHS alongside a business that reflects who I truly am.

Because for me, it was never just about coffee.
It was always about the stories, and it always will be. The stories I have gathered, have become a stepping stone to something more in line with what I want to achieve, and I have no regrets, just a determination and a strong desire to live a fulfilling life 🌳

I’d love to hear about your turning points, or realisations. Life has a ‘funny’ way of challenging us. But it’s our reaction to the challenge that determines who we truly are 🙌💫
