✨ Fresh Start Fridays ✨

We often make room for everyone else’s needs… but forget to do the same for our own. Today, choose one small way to carve out space just for you.

Try one of these simple self-space rituals:
- Sit quietly for 2 minutes with no agenda
- Say “no” to something you don’t have capacity for
- Put your phone out of reach for a short break
- Check in with yourself: “What do I need right now?”

What’s one thing you’re making space for this weekend?

Walk & Talk - 13th December - 9am

Book in for our next Event in December by using the link below.

If you're a woman in business, or aspiring to be, then come and meet up with like-minded women for support, exchanging ideas and collaboration. If you're too busy during the week to network, as you're supporting your clients, then come and join us one Saturday a month at 9:00 am before your weekend starts! We'll walk and talk, getting fresh air and exercise as well as inspiration and motivation from each other. If you want to stay on for coffee afterwards that would be great too!

We'll meet at 9:00 am under the covered area next to the Antiques Centre on the town side of Exeter Quay in front of The Prospect Inn. Bring along business cards and any other information you'd like to share. Be dressed for the weather and the weekend, not for business! It's a very informal networking event so just come and relax and enjoy the company.

We all know that networking can benefit your business in so many ways.

You can build your support network.
You can create collaborations.
You can build relationships with people.
You get fresh ideas.
You’re energised and inspired.
You can grow your business.
You can access new information that may be helpful.
You can build your confidence.
You can get a different perspective.
You can build and promote your business brand.
You can establish your expertise.
It helps you get outside your comfort zone.

By Walking and Talking you get the added bonus of being outside in the fresh air and exercise!

The benefits of Face to Face networking are even better.

Promotes good mental health as it gets you out of your office and mixing with like-minded people.
You build stronger connections.
More effective conversations than online as you don’t have to wait for the pause in the connection!
People are more collaborative and engaged in face-to-face conversations.

So, why not come and join us and become part of a supportive, energised and collaborative group of women?

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin or running on fumes lately, take a few minutes for this — it might be exactly what you need today.

✨ Fresh Start Fridays ✨

This time of year naturally invites us inward - toward calm, gentleness, and small acts of care that help us feel grounded.

You don’t need to keep up with the rush around you. You’re allowed to move slower, breathe deeper, and choose what nurtures your well-being.

Try a gentle grounding moment this weekend:
- Take 5 slow breaths before starting your day
- Step outside and notice one thing in nature
- Wrap yourself in something warm and comforting
- Write down one thing you’re grateful for, even if it’s tiny

What’s helping you feel grounded lately? Share a little moment below.

Say Yes to Yourself: Unlocking Success in Business and Beyond

Say yes to yourself — it’s one of the most powerful decisions you can make as a woman in business. Too often, female entrepreneurs and leaders are taught to say “yes” to everyone else first: to clients, teams, families, and colleagues. But when you prioritize everyone else’s needs above your own, your energy, dreams, and vision can take a back seat.

Practical Ways to Say Yes to Yourself

• Invest in your growth. From mentorship to skill-building, every investment in yourself fuels long-term business success.
• Protect your time. Schedule space for strategy, creativity, and rest — they’re as important as meetings and deadlines.
• Celebrate your wins. Big or small, acknowledging progress builds momentum and motivation.
• Trust your instincts. Your intuition is a powerful business tool — let it guide you.
