November in a nutshell…

The month I embraced balance in all its glory.

🥘 Ate excellent food, and some interesting snacks (egg crisps anyone?)

💦 Drank plenty of water, plenty of fizz too 🥂

🏃‍♀️ A couple of runs, a lot of tv

📺 Rewatched Night Manager season 1 so I’m ready for Jan 1st (want short hair again)

🧍‍♀️ a lot of networking - met lots of amazing women

🧍‍♂️ and men too!

💭 Reflected on 10 years since starting the Facebook group, and that first event 🙌

😮 Scrolled back to my first ever egg post, what the hell was I thinking? 😅

Here’s to balance, and to not sweating the small stuff

What’s brought you joy this month? Anyone else tried those crisps? 😃👌

Yesterday was big.

I spent the day hosting the finals.

Not an egg event, a new room, a new challenge.

Slightly terrifying, but pretty much my dream gig! 🙌

We listened to 12 founders, pitching for money that could change the entire trajectory of their business.

And then watched them bring grilled by the judges….safe to say I had butterflies in my stomach all day 🦋

Such a diverse range of businesses: from sports bra’s , to ready made meals .uk to

The perfect stage for my favourite dress too - Antoinette was 3rd time lucky winning Scottish Edge, so to anyone who doesn’t win, keep going 🏆

Huge thanks to Evelyn, Kevin and Mandy for trusting me with such an important event and to for hosting 🙏

And congratulations to every single founder who got on that stage and pitched their hearts out with such bravery - for that alone you are all worthy winners ❤️

Could you pitch your business on stage?

A post that stopped my scroll....

A few backs I saw a post pop up in Instagram - a padel racket designed for women by women - hello Pounce Padel.

Was thrilled to discover the founder was an egg!

I met Georgie in our office a few weeks ago, we spent two hours talking - incredible to hear her story- and how the hell she's developed this with three small children!

Pounce Padel launched on Tuesday, whoop! I know it's going to be huge success - one of the rackets is already SOLD OUT! So get on that waitlist for the next drop.

Georgie will be sharing her story at our very special Women on Top: The Founders Edition - an evening event at the Kimpton, and will be joined by other founders, including the incredible Anna from Flyte, Flyte is reimagining how people discover and enjoy wine.

An interactive event, we'll be sharing and swapping ideas and contents, to help these new businesses get off to the very best of starts.

We'd love you to join us!

🗓️ Wednesday 26th November, 6pm-8pm
📍 Kimpton Charlotte Square Hotel, Edinburgh

Part Two… because it’s okay to get it wrong sometimes 💁‍♀️✨

When I posted about Kirsten earlier, my very first good egg, I realised I’d missed some of the best photos.

These ones.

The ones that show what it really felt like to see each other again. 💛

I was going to delete and start again, but that’s the thing about social…we often try to make it perfect.

Which can really suck the joy out of it!

So here are some images I meant to share, which show
the smiles, the surprise, the “look who it is!” moment 🥰

An all round joyful morning, seeing Kirsten with her gorgeous mini egg 🐣 the icing on the cake

You never forget your first employee 🌟

Eight years ago, I took that scary step, turning “me” to “we”.

That first good egg was Kirsten 🥰

Back then, egg was just an idea - an idea with an awesome community behind it, but still just an idea!

Kirsten was (and still is!) very smiley, very stylish, and just got stuck in.

It was such a fun time, we even auditioned for Dragons’ Den together, and got through! 👏

Alas we had to turn Deborah Meaden down as I had a major diary clash 👰☺️

Fast forward to last week and Kirsten and I are reunited at an egg event! 🥳

She walks through the doors with baby Billie on her hip, sits in the audience to listen all things leadership….

as Head of Marketing for 🙌

Ten years since I launched the Facebook group, and moments like this remind me what egg was always meant to be.

A place where women grow, babies in tow, where no one has to choose between ambition and motherhood.

And where people return… not because they have to, but because they want to.

Fancy another go at Dragon’s Den K? ☺️😘

You know it was a good night when the WhatsApp chat next day starts:

Huge love to Kirsty, Karen, Jules and the whole dream team for an unforgettable night 🫶

I spent 5 years working as an Estate Agent, a job I absolutely loved. I know how stressful buying and selling can be, and that building relationships, and clear communication at all times, is key. 🙌

Thank you all so much for your birthday wishes, they made me so happy! Might be weird to share it’s your own birthday, but I don’t care 😂 One of the benefits of growing older!

Saturday I headed into Edinburgh, met my pal Tessa for lunch - using vouchers from my 50th (🥳 to not losing them) for

Me oh my the food was incredible! The salmon was superb as was the fizz 🍾 the dessert, view 😍 great service too 🙌

Shopping under the influence is dangerous, so many pretty things, managed to hold back, did take a pic of a perfume I sprayed and like (you can never have too many perfumes) - anyone have this one? Do like an oud.

Another glass of fizz and more gorgeous views at 😍

Caught the 730pm train home and watched Girl in Cabin 10 (purely for Hannah Waddingham 👸) then early bed 🛌

The birthday card really is apt! 😂👌 Thanks T 😘

All in all very lovely and thank you for the extra hour in bed - which used to mean an extra hour on the dance floor but now does really mean an extra hour in bed! 🥳

Hope you’re having a fab weekend, let me know what you’ve been up to! X
