⭐ Yesterday I visited Amazon’s London headquarters.

I left feeling connected.
Proud of the work I do.
Inspired by women building businesses and supporting each other.
Thanks to the MILSPO Network and Amazon!

On the way home, completely by chance, I heard this quote from Jeff Bezos:

“We all know that distinctiveness — originality — is valuable.
The world wants you to be typical — in a thousand ways, it pulls at you.
Don’t let it happen.”

And this sparked instant inspiration.

💫 Because building the Women’s Wellbeing Lab was never about creating something typical.

It was about supporting women in a way that actually works for them.

Not bland, generic advice.
Not expensive coaching packages.
Not long waiting lists.

It’s about creating something that genuinely meets women where they are — whether that’s wellbeing tracking, self-paced tools, thoughtful reflection, real human connection, or working with an accredited coach.

Real life isn’t typical.
There is no typical woman.
So support shouldn’t be either.

I came home energised.
Energised to keep sharing the Lab.
Energised to reach more women.
Energised to keep building something distinct.

And I won’t let it be typical.

We talk about consistency as if it means doing the same thing, the same way, every time.

Much of habit advice is built on that idea — drawn from controlled conditions where routines are predictable and interruptions are limited. Useful for understanding how habits form, but less helpful for how they continue.

Across real-world habit formation and behaviour maintenance research, a different picture is emerging. Habits last when they can restart easily, adapt to interruption, and remain present even when plans change.

This isn’t about creating perfect habits.
It’s about designing habits that can continue in real life.

If you want support in applying this approach, the Women’s Wellbeing Lab offers psychology-informed habit-planning tools that account for everyday demands.

Change impacts more than plans. It affects capacity, clarity, and how we see our options.

One of the strongest protective factors we have during change is support. Not because you can’t cope, but because coping is shaped by connection, resources, and guidance.

If you’re navigating change right now, you can join the Winter Wellbeing Reset and use the Women’s Wellbeing Lab for 5 days to feel supported as you take your next step.

When life shifts, it often disrupts more than plans.
It can affect your rhythm, capacity, and clarity all at once.

If this resonates, save it for the moments when you’re in the middle of change and the next step isn’t clear.

And if you’d like extra support, the 5-Day Winter Wellbeing Reset inside the Women’s Wellbeing Lab is open now.

I went for a walk today to clear my head.

With the new year approaching, I’ve been thinking about what’s ahead. Normally I approach change with a strong growth mindset. I believe I can figure things out. I believe effort leads to progress. I believe challenges can be worked through, and are mostly exciting to tackle.

But recently, life changed in ways I didn’t choose — and with it went a sense of control, security, and agency. My “growth mindset voice” kept saying:

“Come on. You’ll work it out. Just take the next step.”

But this time, thinking positively and pushing forward didn’t help.

What did help was self-compassion.
Letting myself acknowledge the loss. Allowing space to feel sad about what was and what could have been. Recognising that sometimes, the most supportive thing isn’t to move on quickly… it’s to pause, reflect, and allow readiness to return in its own time.
And eventually, it did.

Today on that walk, clarity came back. Not because I forced it — but because I gave myself time.

For me, clarity looks like:
➡ noticing what naturally rises when I walk
➡ then using structured reflection to turn overwhelm into clearer areas of focus

That shift — from everything feels like it matters to this is what needs attention first — is often what helps turn paralysis into direction.

What helps you when you feel overloaded by “the next chapter”?

If this resonates, the 5-Day Winter Wellbeing Reset Challenge inside the Women’s Wellbeing Lab (I use my own tools inside the lab) is designed to help you pause, reflect and regain direction without pressure to “do everything”.

A lot of January advice focuses on action — more effort, more consistency, more change.

For many women, the issue isn’t motivation. It’s clarity.

When action comes before awareness, change often feels overwhelming rather than supportive.

The 5-day Winter Wellbeing Reset Challenge offers space to pause, reflect, and focus on one thing at a time.

Save this if January advice has ever felt heavy or unrealistic.

Grateful for a really lovely meeting yesterday with Carl , a fellow business founder — a great meet-up to chat business and life.

Thank you to for not just the mentoring and business support, but for creating opportunities to connect with other founders and business owners from the British military community.

Feeling thankful, reflective, and quietly energised heading into the season ahead.
