✨ Facilitator Friday ✨

It feels only right that we introduce the person behind Grow and Glow. Today we are introducing our founder, Charley. Grow and Glow exists because Charley wanted to create the kind of support she could not find when she needed it most. Here is what she shared about her experience. 🫶🏻

Hi, I am Charley.

Grow and Glow was created during a time in my life when everything felt heavy and overwhelming. I was struggling and trying to find support, but every option I found felt wrong for where I was. I needed somewhere I could turn up exactly as I was, without judgement, pressure, or expectation.

I searched for a women only peer support group and could not find one. So I created the space I needed.

I want to be really honest though. Creating Grow and Glow did not fix me. I still have my struggles and there are still hard days. This community was never about having it all figured out. It was about not being alone while figuring things out.

Alongside Grow and Glow, I work as a firefighter. Balancing that role with running these groups is not always easy, but it has shown me just how important spaces like Grow and Glow really are.

Grow and Glow started with no big plan. Just a need. I did not know if anyone would come or if it would work. But women walked through the door and they kept coming back. What began as one small group in Epsom has grown into a community built on honesty, understanding, and shared experience.

If you are reading this and wondering whether to come along, please know this. You do not need the right words. You do not need to explain yourself. You are welcome exactly as you are. 🫶🏻

Today I would love to introduce Naomi, one of our very first facilitators and a core part of our Epsom Grow and Glow group. Naomi has been part of the Grow and Glow journey from the early days and brings so much care, strength, and understanding to the women she supports. 🫶🏻

She is always putting others first, whether that is facilitating the Epsom group or being there for the other facilitators.

Here is what Naomi shared about her experience.

Hello, my name is Naomi. I am a mum to five boys, a nanny to two, and a wife to be. I am also a facilitator at our Epsom Grow and Glow group, although this is not how my Grow and Glow journey began.

I joined Grow and Glow because of the road my life has taken. I am a domestic violence survivor and I live with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, anxiety, depression, abandonment issues, and fibromyalgia. These are things I deal with every day, particularly fibromyalgia, which brings many challenges.

For a long time I kept my feelings locked away and felt myself slipping into another period of depression. I began searching for a private therapist so I could talk freely without feeling like I was placing the weight of my experiences onto friends and family.

While searching, I came across a post on Facebook for a women only peer support group called Grow and Glow. I took it as a sign and decided to attend.

Walking in for the first time was terrifying and I nearly turned back, but I pushed myself through the door. What I found was a breath of fresh air. Listening to other women share, knowing I was not alone, and feeling heard and understood without judgement meant everything to me.

As the weeks went by, Grow and Glow began to feel like home. After a conversation with Charley, I was offered the chance to become part of the facilitator team. I jumped at the opportunity and I am so grateful to be part of something so special.

I still attend as a woman who shares her struggles and I continue to feel supported by every member of the group. Thank you for taking the time to listen. I will return that care when you need to be heard too. 🫶🏻

✨ Facilitator Friday ✨

Today we are introducing Ami, one of our facilitators at our Woking Grow and Glow group. Ami brings kindness, care, and a genuine desire to support others, and we are so happy to have her as part of the team. 🫶🏻

Here is what she shared about her experience.

Hi, my name is Ami.

I joined Grow and Glow because I wanted something just for me. I have tried counselling before and it did not work out for me, so I was looking for something different. I have been through some difficult situations and realised I had never fully addressed them.

I love Grow and Glow because it is a welcoming place with women who do not judge. I feel comfortable sharing and being myself, which has meant so much to me.

I have always loved helping people and supporting others. Becoming a facilitator with Grow and Glow feels incredibly fulfilling and I am excited to help hold a space where other women feel supported and heard.

Today we are introducing Hannah, one of our facilitators at our Woking Grow and Glow group. Hannah brings deep understanding, compassion, and a strong desire to support others, and we are so pleased to have her as part of the team. 🫶🏻

Here is what she shared about her experience.

Hi, I am Hannah and I am a facilitator at our Woking group.

Mental health has been part of my life for a long time. Growing up, I saw close family members struggle with their mental health and addiction. At times I felt lost trying to support others, while putting my own mental health to one side. Everything reached a breaking point in 2021 when I had a nervous breakdown.

I was supported by amazing family and friends and, with the help of a therapist, I was able to rebuild and find my feet again. Since then, I have always wanted to give back, but I struggled to find the right place to turn that passion into action.

Through a chance meeting while running a professionals mental health group, I met Charley and learned about the safe space she had created with Grow and Glow. Her passion stood out straight away and I knew this was something special. I began attending the Guildford group and was deeply moved by being in a room with women who listen, uplift, and validate one another. The sense of connection shown to people who had only just met felt incredibly powerful and I knew this was a place where I belonged.

When Charley shared that Grow and Glow was opening in Woking, it felt meant to be. I offered my help and I am now part of the facilitator team. I am really looking forward to meeting the amazing women who will walk through our doors. 🫶🏻
