We’re so glad you’re here. Truly. Thank you for sharing a little of your story already — it takes courage to step into a new space, especially one rooted in growth, healing, and self-kindness. This Lounge is a place for real life. Messy seasons. Fresh starts. Tiny wins. And the kind of conversations that remind us we’re not doing this alone. Ladies — feel free to keep sharing, jump into a thread that resonates, or simply settle in and explore. There’s no right way to be here. Shine Lounge sisters, let’s give them some love below 💛👇 @Rachael Bermingham - You can read Rachael's intro post here @Lydia Cox - You can read Lydia's intro post here And @Lucy Murphy, I know you dropped into Friday self-time, but we would love to know a little more about you.
