In September I had the absolute privilege of spending a week in Tulum, Mexico with seven other business women. We were all there on Niki Kinsella’s Feminine Energy Retreat to learn how to bring some of Niki’s methods into our lives to support our businesses and lives in general. It sounds a bit …

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Amanda from In Harmony with Horses at her fantastic premises in the Pennine Hills. Amanda was looking to refresh the images on her website and collate a set of images she can use on Social Media. I spent a fascinating few hours with her, …
