WORK HISTORY
Founder and Mentor @Inspire Uk
Inspire UK is a not-for-profit business I run to support women as business leaders.It was originally founded having acquired a failed business one week before the pandemic. Previously, it was known as The Inspire Network, and we continued to trade under this name for several years before rebranding as Inspire UK and completely changing our focus!Inspire UK has two main objectives:1) to see women rise as leaders in business2) to encourage and support the success of women as female foundersWe welcome women who seek to connect and enjoy community with their peers, being authentic as humans first and business-people second. Connection on a regular basis creates opportunities for collaboration, personal development, enhanced wellbeing, as well as the business benefits that come with being part of a community.The Inspired Women Mastermind is a confidential community with a maximum membership of 30, facilitating quality, easy-to-access, meaningful and expertly-led peer masterminding, along with additional meetings online to support business growth. Enjoy opportunities to bring challenges to the table to workshop with other founders and business owners. In addition to group meetings, there\'s 1:1 mentoring, coaching or strategic input available 3x per year at no additional charge.The Inspire Network provides a fun, honest, heart-led networking opportunity to connect with women in business who aren\'t necessarily business owners, but equally be employed within business and seeking solidarity and camarderie. Fun and friendship first, business second!Drop me a DM if interested in knowing more or discussing how we might partner together.I personally have relationships with each of our members within our Mastermind (max 30 members at any time), and lead all sessions and provide all 1:1 business mentoring/coaching/advisory services to our members. I also facilitate all Inspire Network online meetups. Supported by my small team, who make it all possible.
