I'll be honest, work really hasn't felt like work this week and when I think about it, it rarely does and i'm so grateful for that.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I've had the deep privilege of spending two days in inspiring company with my guests on Vision and Vitality. I was touched, as I always am when I get the honour of doing this work, by their authenticity, honesty and willingness to show up with their whole selves. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The support that each one of my lovely guests showed for each other was beautiful and I know that it has sown the seeds of deep friendship that I hope will continue for a long time to come. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'm heading to Somerset today and have the great joy of supporting the lovely Dena of @reformbarrepilates on her first retreat. I'll be offering meditation and mindfulness for her guests over a weekend designed to help them relax and recharge and I can't wait. Not least because I know Dena will whip me into shape in her Barre class!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Whatever you're up to this weekend I hope you find time for your own rest and relaxation and look forward to spamming you from Somerset on my stories while i'm away. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy Friday folks.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ x⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #dotheworkyoulove #empoweredentrepreneur #visionandvitality #businessretreat #meditationteacher #retreatfacilitator #loveyourwork
Day two of vision and vitality and we've got a lot to get through. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yesterday we explored our values, what it means to have a mission that matters and took a walk to the future, today is all about the plan. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What's coming up this year, and how can we create space for what matters is the name of the game. After a very cosy and relaxed evening around the fire and an early night, everyone should be up for a productive session this morning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I want all of my lovely guests to come away with absolute certainty of direction and focus, feeling inspired and revitalised. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Can't wait to get started, but first, Yoga. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #businessretreat #visionandvitality #cotswoldsretreat #businessplanning #holdthevisiontrusttheprocess
Sometimes even a dead end can be beautiful. If you're stopped from moving forwards, there might be good reason you'll only be able to see with hindsight. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Take it as an opportunity to pause and smell the roses, the right path will reveal itself in time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ image by @cathypyle ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #allingoodtime #havefaith #gowiththeflow #holdthevisiontrussttheprocess
To begin, all you need is a glimmer of an idea, something that gets you excited, that feels right and plays to your strengths. Over time, with a little space and attention it can grow into something beautiful, something that takes firm root and spreads, but first you must begin. #everythingstartssomewhere #jfdi #youcandothis #takethefirststep
Wow I'm bowled over lovely folks, thank you so much to everyone who has booked to join me at my celebration on 8th May. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had no idea while I was writing the empowered entrepreneur that it would go out so widely in the world and be so well received. I periodically pinch myself at what is possible when you silence the inner critic long enough to see a big project through. To date the book has reached over 15 countries and has taken on a life of it's own. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'm continually delighted by messages from people taking the time to write and share their stories and their entrepreneurial journey. It makes my heart so happy.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I really didn't think i'd do another one but I got over that thought quite quickly and I'm planning to start the next book in the autumn once my current book project with Michael Ledzion @sportsforschools is off to the printers. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For now i'm happy celebrating the successes of the past year and look forward to seeing you at the event. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There are just 6 tickets left. If you'd like one, there's a link in my profile. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Have a lovely Wednesday folks, I'm off to spent it with the beautiful Vanessa of @senserspirits and there are some seriously exciting things to come form this lady and her team, watch this space folks. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #empoweredentrepreneurbook #booklaunch #inspiredentrepreneur #mywritinglife #grateful #brandbuilding #brandfoundations #coach

Good morning folks, how are you? This week has got off to a flying start for me, I've just finished reviewing @thebrand_stylist 40 for 40 Edit and just wow, Fiona has put such an extraordinary amount of time and effort into pulling this together to benefit the entrepreneurial community and I know you're going to love it when she launches it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's a varied week ahead for me. Along-side my usual 121 sessions I've got a day with the creative director of @senserspirits tomorrow working on brand and messaging for their new offering that's in development, and a trip to Cardiff on Friday for a day with my lovely clients @fullstopaccounts. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the mean time the Smalls will be keeping me out of trouble with their usual home ed' shenanigans. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Later today bookings will be opening for the Empowered Entrepreneur Celebration and book signing on 8th May. Those on my list get first dibs on tickets and i'll make them available to the lovely Insta tribe after 2pm. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Whatever you're up to today I hope it's a good one and you find some time to take a moment in the great outdoors. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #theempoweredentrepreneurbook #booklaunch #empoweredentrepreneur #inspiredentrepreneur
Hello lovely peeps, today i'd like to introduce to you my final panellist for my book event, Noel Ashton. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Noel and I began working together a few months ago and in that short time I am already in awe of not only his creative work but his personal mission to bring us to greater connectedness with ourselves and the earth through a new programme launching later this year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Noel is an artist-sculptor, storyteller, advocate for wildlife, author of five books and has a unique and profound connection to the natural world that is conveyed in all his work. He may have the soul of an artist but Noel is also gifted with the keen mind of a scientist. After graduating in Environmental & Geographical Science from the University of Cape Town, Noel pursued his passion for the marine environment and spent over twenty years developing a complex process of morphologically mapping the world’s whales and dolphins, enabling him to create highly accurate scientific illustrations of each species. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There's so much more to Noel's personal journey and he's built up some pretty impressive credentials over the years that i'll share on the blog soon. His standing in my eyes as an Empowered Entrepreneur however is more to do with his heart than his history. Noel cares passionately and deeply about his work, about humanity, about making a difference and leaving a legacy that matters. He's not afraid to have a big vision, to show up every day and take the small steps that will take him towards it. He's deeply rooted in authenticity, his work being a natural extension of his own personal journey of self discovery that means it is wholly congruent with who he is and what he stands for. Noel has ridiculous humility for someone so gifted. He has great power in his storytelling ability and wields it with such responsibility that it is both humbling and awe inspiring. I look forward to more opportunities to bring Noel and his work to the UK from his native South Africa. #empoweredentrepreneur #theempoweredentrepreneurbook #booklaunch #noelashton
