Morning ladies,

Self care doesn’t have to cost lots of money! It can be taking time out for a walk, have a bath, meditate, having a coffee. There is so much you can do for yourself that does not make a dent in your purse! Life can be so hectic and sometimes we forget to take time for ourselves. Make sure you do a little something just for you today! Feel free to share your ideas or your plans in the comments below!

Warm wishes,

Shell 🙏

Have you ever been made to feel like you aren’t good enough? That you aren’t worth enough? That you are not capable of certain things? When someone tells us this or we go through a period of time where various people have made us feel this way, we begin to believe it to be true!
It’s not true!
We are good enough, we are worthy enough and we are capable of anything we put our minds too!
We can’t change how others perceive us, we can’t control their behaviours! But…what we can control is how we receive it! Believe in yourself…see you worth and capabilities so that when someone tries to knock you down, they can’t! The only person you are guaranteed to have from birth to death is yourself! Therefore it’s okay to put yourself first, it’s okay to take time out and focus on you! It’s okay!

Warm wishes,

Today was my last day facilitating this group at Roger and Steve’s place. It’s been an experience and one that I will never forget! I have met some extraordinary women that have come through the door! I’ve watched growth in each one of them! If I’ve taught the ladies anything I hope it’s the message below!

It’s the end of a chapter and a beginning of a new one!

This Friday will be the last group session at Roger and Steve’s place 9am-12pm

In the meantime this page will be staying 🙏

Warm wishes,

Hello ladies,

On the back of the sad news that our doors are having to close due to lack of funding that is needed for the service, I have created a petition if you could all sign this petition and share it I would be ever so grateful. To make a difference we need to stand together as a community and make the change happen. Men Only IOW

This video by the musician Youngblood portrays how one tries to exist alongside their insecurities and their darkness by grounding themselves and remembering what is real in life and that the world is so much bigger than them. Our volunteer introduced it to the group today and we all found it very powerful and thought we would share it with you.
