Week 10. Done. 🎉

And honestly? I don’t have the words. (Rare. Those who know me, know.)

We had a quiz. We had reflections. We had a buffet, non-alcoholic fizz, cups of tea, so much chat, so much sharing - and the most IMMENSE homemade cakes and quiches you’ve ever seen in your life.

You’ve set the bar embarrassingly high for Cohort 2, by the way. Just saying.

Ten weeks ago these women walked in as strangers. Today we hugged goodbye as friends. And I will miss every single one of them like mad.

You’ve taught me things I didn’t expect to learn. You’ve made my cheeks hurt from laughing. You’ve shown me what bravery looks like when life has been really, really hard.

And you’ve blossomed. Every single one of you.
If you’re on the fence about joining the next block - please don’t be. These ladies will tell you themselves. Come as you are. Leave as more of yourself.

It’s completely free, funded by The National Lottery 💛 and I cannot wait to meet you.

👉 To book your place, head to www.glowforwardcic.co.uk/event-list and select the National Lottery tab Weeks 1–10 to RSVP.
The best is yet to come. I promise. 🌸

✨ Fresh air, good vibes & even better company ✨

Today’s walk through Sherbrook Valley from the Punchbowl was just what we needed… and somehow the rain held off for us 🙌

There’s nothing better than stepping away from the busy day-to-day, getting some fresh air in your lungs, and just slowing things down for a while. Add in some lovely chats and new faces, and it turns into exactly the kind of reset we all need 🌿

Honestly, these moments are what it’s all about 💛

If you fancy joining us on a future walk (or trying one of our other feel-good sessions), we’d love to have you!

👉 RSVP here: www.glowforwardCIC.co.uk/event-list

Our walks and yoga sessions are part of the movement programme, and we’ve been so lucky to be supported by Sport England to make these accessible for everyone 🙏

Come as you are, bring a friend, or come solo and leave with new ones 💫

There’s something so special about getting outside, breathing in fresh air, and just talking. 💛

Our Glow Forward walk around Stafford Castle - Derrington circular didn’t even feel like exercise… just good company, laughs, and a chance to switch off for a while.

We were out for just under 2 hours and smashed 10,000+ steps without even realising 👣✨

Little reminder: walking just 30 minutes a day can boost your mood, reduce stress, and improve heart health - imagine what nearly 2 hours can do 🌿

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just need a reset… this is your sign to join us next time. 🌿

🌿✨ Glow Forward Walk & Talk ✨🌿

Honestly… the weather is too good not to get outside right now ☀️

We’re heading out tomorrow for a beautiful Stafford Castle Derrington Circular walk (approx 2 hours), and it’s the perfect excuse to get some fresh air, clear your head, and have a good chat with lovely people 💛

🗓 Friday 20th March
⏰ 10am–12pm (arrive 9:50 so I can tick you in)
📍 Meet at Stafford Castle car park (Visitor Centre car park is ST16 1DJ)

I’ll be there waiting for you - you’ll recognise me from the photo on the flyer, and I’ll probably have my bright orange dry robe on at the start too 🧡 (although I might ditch it if this sunshine keeps up 😅)

There’s zero pressure - come on your own or bring a friend… whatever feels good for you. It’s just a relaxed, friendly walk where you can be yourself and meet like-minded people.

The more the merrier… we’d love to have you 🫶

Just RSVP here to book your spot 💻 www.glowforwardcic.co.uk/event-list

If you want to speak to me beforehand, you can call me on: 07471 526676

Today’s Glow Session at Glow Forward was all about decorating candles with acrylics… and at first, it looked like nobody quite knew what they were doing.

There was a bit of staring at candles.
A bit of “I’m not sure what to paint.”
And a fair amount of guessing what everyone else was drawing.

Then something happened…

Flowers appeared.
Poppies appeared.
Easter eggs appeared.

And somehow the candles ended up looking far better than any of us expected.

Safe to say we may have discovered a few secret artists in the room today 🎨

Creative, relaxing, lots of laughs, and a reminder that when women get together and try something new, it usually turns out even better than planned.

Today was supposed to be a Glow Forward walking session…

…but my little sidekick is poorly 🤒 so instead we’re having a blanket-and-sofa kind of day.

When plans change, you improvise, right?

So while he’s living his “more blankets please mummy” lifestyle, I’m making the most of the time and practising for my next workshop… which currently involves painting candles and questioning how I once got an A GCSE in Art and the year prize*.

Honestly it’s giving:
craft club during a mild household medical emergency.

The dog, for the record, is completely unimpressed with my artistic process and is mainly focused on when his next treat is arriving.

Mum life. Workshop prep. Life is always life-ing.

Today at Glow Forward we explored the power of journaling and had such a lovely time together. 💗

We spent the session getting out of our heads and onto paper - clearing mental clutter, reflecting on our thoughts and learning simple tools that can support wellbeing.

Journaling can help clear the mental clutter, reduce stress, process emotions, organise your thoughts, set intentions and goals, and reduce anxiety and overwhelm.

We tried a range of journaling styles including brain dumping, mind mapping, future self journaling, the circle of control exercise, and some creative journaling too. It was amazing to see everyone relax, open up and discover what worked best for them.

We’re incredibly grateful that these sessions are funded by the National Lottery, helping us bring free wellbeing workshops to our community.

If you fancy meeting with like-minded women, enjoying a bit of tea and cake, and learning something new, we’d love to see you. Just check out the link in the bio and RSVP to one of our upcoming workshops. I can’t wait to meet you. ✨

✨ INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY GIVEAWAY ✨

There is something powerful about women who choose collaboration over competition.

So a group of heart-led women have come together to do just that. ✨

And when many women are supported? 🌍The world shifts.

🎁 Prize Pool
✨ 1:1 Peri POWER HOUR – quick solutions for peri problems with Olivia
✨ One month inside Sacred Ground + 1:1 spiritual session with Helen
✨ Your choice of a Kweenie Fine Art Print with Kelly
✨ One month Pilates membership + Midlife Strength & Mobility programme with Alison
✨ 2-hour colour analysis via Zoom with Lu
✨ Reiki session with Gem
✨ 1-hour consultation + intro to strength training with Suzanne

This morning’s walk was a good one. We started at Holmcroft Park car park, headed down onto the Isabel Trail, did a long loop and came back round. You can’t beat getting out in the fresh air, moving your body and having great conversations..and the rain stayed away too! 🍀

Thank you so much to those who came along, it was so nice to see you. There’s something about getting outside, moving your body and having a chat that just makes you feel lighter.

Checked my watch at the end and I’d done over 12,000 steps and just over 4 miles, so I’m feeling very accomplished today.😅

If you’ve been thinking about coming along but feel a bit nervous, honestly just come anyway. You don’t need to know anyone - everyone is really friendly. Bring a friend if you like, or drop me a message beforehand and we can have a chat.

You can RSVP to the next walk on our website (link in the bio). Click RSVP and come and join us - you’re always welcome.

And if you’re wondering how you’ll find us… you can’t miss me - I’m always the one in the bright orange dry robe. 🧡

🌿 Glow Forward Walk & Connect - Stafford 🌿

We’ve just completed 6 weeks of yoga thanks to funding from Sport England, and now we’re moving into 6 weeks of community walks in and around Stafford.

If you’d like to get out of the house, clear your head, and meet some lovely like-minded women, come and join us.

These walks are for women experiencing mental health challenges, low self-esteem, or recovering from abuse. It’s a relaxed, friendly space to move your body, have a chat, and get out in nature.

Our first walk:
📍 Isabel Trail Loop (starting from Holmcroft Park car park)

🗓 Friday 6th March 10am – 12pm
🗓 Saturday 7th March 10am – 12pm

The walk will be around 2 hours, with a little stop along the way for a cup of tea and a chat ☕

👟 What to bring:
• Walking boots if you have them (there may be a few puddles!) or trainers
• A drink or flask of tea/coffee
• Snacks if you’d like

✨ If you’d like to meet new people, build confidence, and enjoy some fresh air, this space is for you.

👉 RSVP via the website to book on:  www.glowforwardcic.co.uk/event-details
