World Mental Health Day – The Circles That Hold Me Together 💚
Running a business can be one of the most rewarding and challenging journeys – especially when you’re doing it solo. Over the last few years, as I’ve transitioned from corporate life to running my own creative business, I’ve discovered that true strength doesn’t come from standing alone… it comes from the circles of support that surround you.
For me, these circles overlap like ripples in water – each one supporting me in a different way, yet together forming a knot that keeps me grounded, connected and strong.
🌿 Business Support & Visibility
Pamela from Worsley Creative and the Visibility Society – for the clarity, accountability and confidence to be seen.
🌿 Mindset & Coaching
Shelley from Shelley Bosworth Coaching and the She is Courageous Collective – for reminding me to show up with courage, purpose and belief.
🌿 Mental & Physical Wellbeing
• Sarah from The Motorcycling Yogi – yoga, sound baths, cold water swims and a community full of warmth.
• Sarah from Beautiful Minds Hypnotherapy – a supportive friend who’s helped me find calm through relaxation and hypnotherapy (and soon, walking therapy!).
• Sarah from Layers Pilates – my new favourite discovery! Reformer Pilates has become my reset, especially when shared with friends and family.
🌿 Creative Community
My fellow furniture artists – a wonderful group who understand this world like no one else. Always there for creative chat, practical advice and shared passion.
🌿 Family & Friends
And of course, my lovely family and friends – the constant, unconditional support that ties it all together.
Together, these circles form the foundation that holds me steady – especially when life (and business) gets busy or uncertain.
If you’re looking for support, inspiration or simply a reminder that you don’t have to do this alone – go and give these wonderful women a follow and see what they’re about. 💚
