***"*Create new possibilities "** **Hi Welcome to The Womans Empowerment Network** Click here to watch my intro video [Introduction to the womans empowerment network ](https://youtu.be/LXx-xVPX4lI) **The Woman's Empowerment Network Focuses on connections, helping people develop and thrive.** **Psychology shows that when we approach our life in a holistic way, it improves our mental health and wellbeing -hence we are more likely to thrive and flourish, feel happier and more content. This is achieved through a number of ways such as connecting with others, creating meaning and purpose in your life, having a spiritual or religious framework, getting your needs met, having fun and work that you enjoy.** People can struggle because a need isn't met or they are not attending to any of those aspects above, In this network I bring the things that light me up, have made a difference to my life and what has helped many of my clients in my work as a psychotherapist/coach, service lead , programme designer and yoga and meditation teacher . I originally joined a meet up in 2011 . I found it hard at first to go to events and become more social after bringing up my children and being mostly academic , then a group of us set up a social group in Windsor and I enjoyed three years of weekly events meeting many different people . I knew that other woman like me were also finding it hard to get out and make new friends .

Are you a solo business owner, sole trader and need to meet like-minded people? Can you join us in Fleet on Wednesday morning? Why come? Running a small business can be lonely and it helps to have a supportive community of people who understand. What's more, these people can introduce you to potential clients or suppliers... we encourage you to explore collaborative opportunities too. If school holidays present a challenge you are welcome to bring your children with you. They can either participate in the meeting on have a table of their own. You just pay for any food or drink that they have. You always get a warm welcome from us. My meetings are relaxed and fun but always get the business done. We've kind of ditched the one-minute pitch as a routine part of our agenda but there will be plenty of time to discuss our businesses and get to know each other. Visitors are welcome and invited to attend three events before making a decision about joining. We know times are a bit tough at the moment so we've reduced the meeting fee to £10 and it still includes light refreshments. These attendance fees are payable on arrival (we can take card payments). Remember that these fees are an allowable business expense when working out your profits. Venue We meet at The Wyvern (pronounced wivvern), 75 Aldershot Rd, Church Crookham, Fleet, GU52 8JY. There's parking on site. Attendees invariably say they leave uplifted and inspired. BOOK HERE: https://fabulousnetworking.co.uk/.../fabulous-networking.../ Or send me an email, so that I know you are coming along and you can pay on the day. I really hope you can make it Wednesday but if you can't we'll be back on Wednesday in July in Fleet.
