👩‍🦳👱‍♀️ We have come so far.

I wasn’t sure about the ‘Give to Gain’ theme on the face of it, as things shouldn’t always have to come from struggle, they should also be built with ease, not transaction.

However, when I look at it from the perspective that when women thrive together, we rise together, that definitely resonates with me.

It’s a huge day to acknowledge and celebrate women over the years and everything that has been achieved.

As I always say, let’s also celebrate the men who live in partnership with women and understand their complexities too.

On International Women’s Day (IWD), I wanted to share this timeline which highlights just how far women have come:

What's the timeline for International Women's Day? How and when did IWD start?

This is exactly the kind of work I’ll be bringing into my Women’s Mental Wellbeing Clubs.

Creating safe, supportive spaces where women can pause, breathe, regulate, and reconnect with themselves is something I care deeply about.

I’m really looking forward to holding this space for women in my local community, Poulton-le-Fylde.

I’ve already spoken with some of you and will be sharing the booking link very soon once everything is finalised.

📍 First session: 10th March, 7:15pm
📍 The Space, FY6

These sessions are gentle, supportive, and open to any woman who feels she would benefit from time to reset, reflect, and restore.

Sessions are £10 and run monthly. I’m also exploring additional venues locally, including a daytime option.

If you’re interested, feel free to comment or message me, and I’ll make sure you receive the booking details.

Quick question: If you were to attend, would you prefer a daytime or evening session?

Can you relate to reacting to a situation in a way you wished you hadn’t?

Knowing why that reaction shows up like it does allows us to re educate our nervous systems in to working in the here and now.

It’s absolutely fascinating

Let me know if you need to hear more on this

All Welcome

Ok! Next Wednesday I’m starting ‘LUNCHTIME LIVES’ on Instagram

It’s going to be a different topic each week and I can not wait to get going 🎙️✨

All you need to do is be around and watch for me going live then watch or listen.

I’m going to be bringing in the topics that matter to us and how we feel.

Join live so you can ask questions and join the conversation.

This will be just like all my spaces - natural, relaxed, uplifting, informative. I’ll also bring a giggle and probably some 🎶 any requests? 🧡

Come on in! On your walk, your lunch, at work, on the treadmill.

Would love to have you.

Look forward to seeing you there.

Balance in life is a lot like learning to drive a car.
At first, it feels overwhelming, mirrors, pedals, steering, awareness, all at once.

It doesn’t happen overnight.
And anyone who tells you it does… isn’t being honest.

I’m still working on certain areas myself. 💛

But here’s the beautiful part:
Once each little piece starts to click, it becomes easier.
More natural.
More confident.

And you start to reap the benefits…

You stop overthinking every move and start trusting yourself.
That’s balance, not perfection, but practice.

Balance isn’t about being perfect in all areas. Just the consideration and acknowledgement of which areas could do with some nurturing will start you off.

✨Go gentle, but intentional.

Every woman with a big vision has a shadow part protecting it.

Most never meet her.

They just feel the hesitation, the edge, the almost-there energy…
and call it “self-sabotage.”

But what if the part holding you back
is the same one trying to lead you forward?

There’s a message in your resistance.
A pattern.
A clue.

If you’re ready to see what’s really been running the show…
your results are waiting.

Take the quiz - link in bio and receive your personalised results. Let’s get curious.

You may have seen previous posts acknowledging just how overwhelming this month can actually be at home and at work, we all know right?

To honour this and support more of you to overcome your sleep issues.. stress.. anxiety.. overwhelm.. people pleasing.. boundary setting…

I have created a Christmas present for you 🎁

3 personalised online hypnotherapy sessions, with recordings for you to keep. You will absolutely feel a shift right from our very first session and you can continue the work after our sessions, by revisiting my recordings and work that we do together.

Just imagine how different you will feel, clearer, calmer, more head space, less noise, better sleep and more. Now imagine not taking action and how you may feel going in to 2026.

Hypnotherapy is my absolute go to with the clients I work with - investing in your subconscious health could just be the move you need to make right now

It can be an expensive and busy month but whatever you do, don’t forget about you

DM ‘December’ to start a conversation about this December deal
