Part 1 - Meet some of our lovely sponsors for our 2nd birthday event on Monday 14th September, 9.30am at the Wheatley The Wheatley Arms

➡️

First up we have the fabulous Natasha Cadman Branding Photography - She has decades of experience in both wedding and family photography, but her true passion now lies with branding photography!

She’s recently teamed up with her (also very talented) husband Jim to create Natasha combining Tash’s love of taking photos and Jim’s website building skills. The perfect pair to help kick start your brand and website traffic!

Tash will be there, camera in hand to snap some image of the day!

Candy from Pebble Hypnotherapy Candy Squire-Watt is also one of our very valued sponsors for the event.

Candy is a solution focused clinical hypnotherapist, and helps people overcome their emotional and physical challenges using a combination of talking therapy and hypnosis to help them refocus and regain control of their emotions and their lives.

The kindest soul and one of our longest standing members, we’re thrilled to collaborate with Candy for this special event.

And last but not least the gorgeous Zoe from Löyly & Jää Sauna | Woodfired Horse Box Sauna and The Dip & Dales Edit By Zoe

You can catch Zoe at one of her cold dip and sauna locations in West Yorkshire - Draughton Heights in Skipton and Olicana Park in Addingham.

Her fabulous locations allow you to move between the sauna heat, open air and cold water in the most natural way possible. Helping us to connect to both nature and ourselves.

If you haven’t tried one of Zoe’s location yet, we can HIGHLY recommend it, especially after a short hike with the girls!

Thank you Zoe. It’s a pleasure to collaborate with you.

Happy 1st of the month, ladies! And 1st of September at that!

There’s something about September that just feels like a fresh start, isn’t there?

We’ve seen lots of people talking about how they see September as the new ‘New Year’ — and we couldn’t agree more! After a slower summer, the kids are back at school, routines are returning and suddenly everyone seems to have that let’s get things DONE energy! 🔥

So, what better time to reset, refocus and get your business ready for the final few months of 2026?

Today, we’re so pleased to announce this month’s networking sponsor, the lovely Cecilia from Cecilia Costello | Brand Photographer & Visibility Expert 📸

If you’ve not met Cecilia before, make sure you give her a follow and connect with her. She creates beautiful, professional imagery that doesn’t just look good — it helps you show up confidently, elevate your brand and connect with the right people.

And don’t just take our word for it…

Here are a couple of kind words from her clients.

💬 “Cecilia’s skill, professionalism and passion make it an absolute joy to work with her. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

💬 “So much more than a photo shoot! Having seen Cecilia’s work before, I expected great photos. I’m not comfortable in front of the camera, but we had such a fun day.”

And honestly ladies… if professional photography has been sitting on your “I really need to do that” list, September is your sign!

More to come on Cecilia and her amazing business soon!

Have a great week ladies!

A little snippet from the radio interview with at this week.

When we took a look back this week about how far the group has come and got the opportunity to talk about it all on the radio, it really was quite overwhelming. (In a good way!)

We can’t wait to celebrate with you all on Monday 14th Sept (link in bio for final couple of tickets!)

This group of women is absolutely incredible and we’re so grateful to each and every one of our members who show up each month. Whether that’s in our monthly meetings, connecting and collaborating with others, engaging on our Facebook group, joining in with group activities … you ladies make this networking community what it is.

Cheers to all of you 🥂

A final golden nugget from our August sponsor, REconnected Magazine

We asked founder Ros, what’s one thing you wish you knew before starting your journey?

That building a meaningful business takes much longer than building a busy one.

“I used to think growth was all about numbers, but I’ve realised it’s about trust. If you keep showing up, keep serving people well and stay true to your values, the right community will find you.

Slow growth isn’t failure, sometimes it’s the strongest foundation.”

Thank you for your sponsorship this month! And if you’re not following REconnected Magazine and their journey then please make sure you do.

Ros has some incredible events happening this Sept so head over to her page to find out all the details!

Have a great bank holiday everyone!

✨ MEET OUR NEXT GUEST PANELLIST… RACHEL PERU! ✨

We are SO excited to welcome the incredible Rachel Peru to our Inspire & Connect 2nd Birthday Brunch! 🥂

Here’s a snipped of Rachel’s story…

At 46, a friend signed Rachel up to walk in the annual Ilkley Macmillan Fashion Show. What started as a one-off experience sparked a whole new chapter. After six years volunteering at the show, Rachel sent a few simple snapshots to modelling agencies…

And the rest is history. ✨

She was signed by a London agency and landed her first major international campaign in the Bahamas, modelling alongside celebrity A listers! (We won’t say who, but we will be asking her all about this at the event!)

Since then, Rachel has become a powerful voice for women, body confidence and challenging ageist stereotypes, proudly embracing her natural silver hair and size 16 curves.

She’s also hosted podcasts interviewing more than 150 inspiring women over 40 and launched her own premium swimwear brand, Liberté – Free to Be, created with fuller-busted women in mind.

Rachel is proof that your next chapter can be your most exciting one yet. ❤️ There’s just no stopping this powerhouse!

We cannot wait to hear her story, wisdom and advice at our 2nd Birthday Brunch!

📅 Monday 14th September
⏰ 9.30am–11.30am
📍 Wheatley, Ben Rhydding
🎟️ £27 per ticket

Come for the brunch. Stay for the connections. Leave feeling inspired to step into your next chapter. ✨

We’re so excited to welcome Sarah Dunning as our guest speaker at the Inspire & Connect 2nd Birthday Celebration!

Sarah’s mission is simple: to help you live your best life.

A business owner, investor, public speaker and founder of The Be Well Club, Sarah has completely transformed her own life over the past 15 years — from struggling financially and living with low self-esteem, anxiety and limited choices, to creating a life that looks completely different today.

Having helped hundreds of others transform their lives too, Sarah’s own journey is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we believe in ourselves, take action and have the courage to create change.

We’re really looking forward to having Sarah join us on our guest panel, where we’ll be chatting openly about her experiences, what she’s learnt along the way and the changes that can help us all move towards living a life that feels more fulfilling and purposeful.

Expect an honest, inspiring conversation — with plenty of opportunity for you to get involved too!
