This week's Elite Journal post was inspired by one of those moments I'm sure most of us have experienced... When you're dropped into a networking breakout room and suddenly nobody knows who should speak first 😳

It's a tiny moment but it got me reflecting on confidence, connection and showing up as business owners.

💬 I'd love to know if you are the person who starts the conversation or do you wait for someone else to break the silence?

🤯 VAT rules in the UK can get very strange very quickly.

One recent case looked at whether giant marshmallows should be classed differently for VAT purposes compared to standard marshmallows. Seriously.

It’s the kind of thing that sounds ridiculous until you realise how easy it is for businesses to accidentally apply the wrong VAT rate to products or services without even knowing.

If you’ve ever second guessed your VAT setup, you’re definitely not alone. Feel free to message us if you want another pair of eyes on it.

From member Roseleigh Media. We highly recommend her courses and workshops.

It's Small Charity Week this week, and it's reminded me exactly why I created my communications workshops. Over the last few months I've spoken to lots of charities, CICs and faith organisations who are doing incredible work with limited time, limited budgets and very small teams.

Big charities have multiple people working on fundraising, PR, marketing, internal comms. Whereas smaller charities may only have one or two people to do everything.

They understand the importance of communications. They know they need to raise awareness, engage supporters, share their impact and build trust. But they don't necessarily know how - and don't have the funds to put a specialist on retainer. It's knowledge they need - but don't have just yet.

It's why I developed my small group workshops specifically for the sector. I wanted to share them in case they might be useful to you or someone you know. They're practical, affordable and designed for people who don't have a communications background but want to build their confidence and skills.

They include:

PR Made Simple – how to use your stories to raise awareness and tips on working with the media

Social Media Strategy Development – creating a clearer, more purposeful approach to social media

Have A Plan When It Hits The Fan – an introduction to crisis communications and preparing for difficult situations

The Social Media Frontline – helping organisations manage online negativity, protect their people and respond confidently when challenges arise

TikTok Bootcamp – understanding whether TikTok is right for your organisation and how to use it effectively

We’re thrilled to announce our new Ambassador for our Synergy community.

Stella truly understands why strategic networking is essential for business growth and long‑term success. She knows it’s all about building meaningful business relationships and she’s a natural host.

As we look ahead to 2026, our goal is to have a dedicated Ambassador in every community across the UK. Their focus will be supporting our in‑person events and helping us grow vibrant local networks of phenomenal business women.

Ambassadors were a valued part of each community before lockdown, and with our events becoming busier than ever, it feels like the perfect time for their return.

We’re delighted to have this extra support for our visitors and members.
