An event held in recognition of International Rural Women’s Day and following Mental Health Awareness Week. The aim is to create as safe, empowering space for women to pause, connect, and gain a few simple, practical tools for looking after ourselves and those around us.

 

🗓 When: Wednesday 15th October, 12–1pm (via Zoom)

🎤 Host: Rebecca Greaves

👩‍💼 Speakers: Kathryn Wright, Charlotte Heald & Deanne Parkes

 

They will be sharing real stories, reflections, and tools around:

💚 Shifting your attention– noticing thoughts, reframing, and practising gratitude

💚 Creating your own “Proud List” to lift confidence and celebrate progress

💚 Building connection, friendship, and community support

💚 Reflecting on resilience – and the tools and habits that help us through challenge

 

If time allows there will be Q&A, and if there’s something specific you would like covered, you are welcome to email deanne@deanneparkes.com

 

This time may not suit everyone, but if you register, you will send you the link afterwards so you can watch it in your own time.

 

Please feel free to share this invitation with your colleagues, clients, friends, and family - all are welcome!

 

This session is designed to leave you feeling encouraged, equipped, and connected - from the inside out.
