This might be of interest to you… 🧡

As many of you know at The Incubator Lab we recently hosted two fantastic workshops alongside Marina from Marnie Wills and now we are thrilled to be doing it again this month.

Get in touch via DM or pop a comment below and I will happily share further details with you on how to join us 🧡

It’s the moment I’ve been waiting for… Coffee With Purpose is officially back this week.

Join me starting this Friday at one of our three gatherings:

☕️ Clanfield, Oxfordshire
☕️ Newbury, Berkshire
☕️ Marlborough, Wiltshire

These mornings are intentionally kept small, so if you’d like to join us, I’d really encourage you to book as soon as you can - it also helps me enormously with planning the perfect session for us.

Booking links are in my bio now. I cannot wait to see you all around the table again 🧡

P.S. keep an eye out for details on our AI Workshops with Marnie & Leanna this September too… more on that very soon!

Hello my lovely Shire Collective friends… hope you’re having a wonderful week 🧡

Just a little note to make your week brighter hopefully, Coffee With Purpose is back in September and the ticket links are NOW LIVE!

After our summer pause, I cannot wait to gather with you all again for hearing your updates, seeing familiar faces and the same warmth that makes these mornings so special.

Save the dates in your diaries (and please note we’re starting in Oxfordshire on the first Friday!) 🧡

I’ve been thinking about the ripple effect lately…

The kind word. The introduction that led somewhere. The encouraging conversation you weren’t expecting. We rarely know the impact of these small moments, but they add up to something bigger than we realise.

This community continues to grow because of exactly that… word of mouth, one conversation at a time. It really is the heartbeat of everything The Shire Collective is.

So today, a small thank you to every one of you who has shared us, invited a friend, or simply mentioned us over coffee. You are part of the ripple 🧡

A little pocket of pause for you today…

August has a habit of pulling us in every direction, and if this week has felt like one long juggle, you are not alone.

So here’s your gentle reminder: you are allowed to do less this month, and still be exactly where you need to be.

Know a woman in business who needs to hear this today? Tag her below… let’s remind each other that summer doesn’t have to mean falling behind 🧡

Hello my lovely friends,

It’s been a little quieter over here than usual…

Life has a way of pulling us away from the things we love, even when we don’t mean it to. A few unexpected things came up this week, and this space had to wait its turn. I’m sure you know exactly what that feels like.

So today, I’m just popping back in to say hello, and to remind you (and myself) that showing up imperfectly is still showing up. 🧡

Thank you for being here, even in the quiet moments. More from me soon! Hope you’re enjoying your summer 🧡

Hello my lovely friends 🧡

A little something to carry with you into August… wherever you are right now - whether that we building, resting, juggling summer holidays and business in equal measures - you are exactly where you need to be.

Here’s to a gentle; good month ahead 🧡

Something I perhaps do not mention enough here are my Women’s Circles 🧡

A circle is one of the oldest ways people have gathered - to listen, reflect and support one another.

There is no pressure to speak. No agenda to perform. Instead you will find a gentle space to share exactly as much as feels right for you.

I hold circles for celebrations, friendship groups, organisations and retreats with each one shaped with care and guidance through my training as a Women’s Circles Facilitator and coaching background.

If you’ve been looking for a quieter, more personal way to connect, maybe this is what you need 🧡

A little pocket of pause for you today…

Because somewhere between the to-do list, the emails, and the version of you that is holding everything together, there is a quieter version who just needs a moment.

Not to stop.
Not to fall behind.
Just to breathe.

So today, my gentle invitation is this: give yourself permission to pause. Even for five minutes. Even with the guilt that tries to tell you that you should be doing something else.

You are allowed to slow down and still be building something wonderful.

If you know a woman in business who needs to hear 🧡

07/07/2026

There’s a particular kind of magic in a room full of women who are quietly changing everything 🧡

Building businesses. Backing each other. Showing up not to compete, but to lift each other higher.

This is what Coffee With Purpose is really about, it’s never just the coffee. It’s the conversations that happen after the small talk. The advice that gets passed across the table. The realisation that you’re not doing this alone.

I am so grateful to each and every one of you incredible that take the time to show up and be there for each other, we are truly building something wonderful.

We will pause the Coffee With Purpose mornings over August but gosh I am already looking forward to seeing you all again in September’s gatherings 🧡
