Let’s continue to uplift and support one another, not just today, but every day.

What would you do if you didn’t let fear hold you back?

25/06/2024

It all starts with you…

Want to change how people see you, treat you or talk to you?

It starts first with how you see yourself, treat yourself and talk to yourself.

You have to practice loving yourself, being kind to yourself and treating yourself with respect. That means practicing self care, speaking positively about and to yourself and treating your body like a temple inside and out.

Imagine how you would show up if you did that?

Imagine how others would see you and behave towards you as a result?

Decide today that things will be different and that you have the power to change them 💜

The women who make a name for themselves dream BIG! They dream up things that might not even exist yet, but there is one thing guiding them through their journey….

Their mission.

When you have a strong enough mission and WHY, then nothing will stop you from going for your big scary goals!

Keep dreaming big - we’re rooting for you 💜

Ladies. Our founder Siobhan Harper-Nunes is running for West Midlands Mayor.

Siobhan says:

“My campaign was designed to promote issues around access to information & decisions, community involvement, left behind regions and of course climate change. If it achieves nothing else it will force other candidates to address these issues publicly.”

We are proud of Siobhan’s example to women and especially women of colour everywhere.

If you like what she’s doing, support her crowdfunder so she can have a bigger impact.
