On Saturday evening I attended our local council’s International Women’s Day awards.
I had been nominated in two categories:
Health & Care
Woman in Business
While I didn’t win either category, I did come home with two certificates and a warm fuzzy feeling.
One of the comments made during the evening described me as an “altruistic businesswoman.”
This made me pause for a moment, because if I’m honest, I’ve never really thought about the work I do through the lens of business success.
As a health professional, my focus has always been helping women understand their bodies and feel safe, strong and confident within them again.
Midlife and menopause are still areas where many women feel dismissed, confused, or unsupported.
If the work I do helps even a small number of women feel more informed, more capable, and less alone in that experience, then the work matters.
Awards are lovely, and I’m truly grateful for the nominations.
Impact matters, and recognitions like this help spread the word that services like mine are out there to help women ❤️
Thank you to the person or people who nominated me; being recognised for the work that I do is something I forever cherish 🥰
Thank you also to for championing Trafford Women, and all the marvellous things that are being done in our region by bold, wonderful, caring women 🙌🏼
