Personal anecdotes, practical tips and inspirational insights for a balanced life and filling up your cup - the art of self care for female entrepreneurs.

For me, reading is the perfect way to take my mind off my never ending to-do list and immerse myself in another world allowing my busy mind to slow down. In 2023 I read (or listened to) 30 whole books - I always love to see which books other people have enjoyed so I have listed the titles I devoured over the year.

I’ve put together a thoughtful edit of the ultimate gift ideas for your female entrepreneur friends (many of which are from amazing, female-led brands here in the UK) in a handy curation of categories including wellbeing, working from home, stationery and that all-important caffeine fix.

The perfect boost of energy for that mid-afternoon slump with good-for-you ingredients. A great, nutritious snack to power you through your to-do list!
