I've just heard that my good friend and colleague Lady Val Corbett died in her sleep last night. For those that don't know, Lady Val was a force of nature - she started the Corbett Network in honour of her husband Lord Corbett who was a amazing advocate for prison reform. She has been gathering organisations that support prisoner rehabilitation ever since. She also ran a ladies' lunch once a quarter for professional women, and the profits all went towards the Corbett Network. I was honoured to be a volunteer helper at her events. Lady Val wrote a testimonial for my book Wing of an Angel and was a great supporter of Beyond Recovery, the social enterprise I ran for ten years. She also had Derrick and Omar as speakers at one of her events. Sending love to all who knew her - I'm still in shock at the lose of this amazing woman. @Sharon J Crabbe @Anastasia Dobrovolschi @Suzie Yeulett @Helen Crockford @Serena DAfree

This post is an update of the June experience and an opportunity to be part of the July Activation experience. We have four votes for all in - I'll run it if there are five! We can take a couple of days to reset, consider our intentions for the next month and start strong Monday. Then we'll have four full weeks to make a difference to your business / practice. @Rachel Harmsworth @Stephanie Wilson @Louise Knighton @Lindsey Elliott - I'm so happy you're all in. A couple of you will be on the premium members Activate 2026 workshop this afternoon. For those who aren't, take the time to consider what you want from July. What's your intention, and what do you want to see at the end of it? What's one goal that you want to have achieved when you look back on July? For everyone else: WHOS IN?! 🥳

On Thursday, 18 June, I'm running a very special event for you. A live coaching session. One woman. One real conversation. In front of an audience of women who'll recognise themselves in it. It's called “What's In Your Way”, and it's the first in a new series: The Activation Sessions. Here’s what’s different – 𝐰𝐞'𝐯𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐭. No pre-call. No script. No topic list. We’ll sit down together for the first time in front of the room, and see what magic unfolds. I'm doing this because there are too many women in their second or third season of life who used to earn well, who now want to champion their own vision, but are feeling stuck and pretending they're not. I want to do the work openly so the rest of us can stop pretending, too. Free to join. Note: the recording will be available for premium members only. See you on June 18?

As you know I spent a week in Puerto Rico writing my new book! It’s now ready for pre-order if you’d like early access :) I’m trying something new. The book is £3 to pre-order which gives you the ebook as soon as it’s ready and a voucher for £3 off the paperback if you decide to buy that. I’m aiming to have 100 sales of the preorder so will be very grateful if you like to support me 🙏🏻💕🤗 The Guilt Free Calling

I nearly didn’t make my flight to Puerto Rico because of one small mistake. A very small mistake that created a heap of drama! Read more on my Substack here. Do you have a Mothers Day story to share? 👇
