Weekly round up. 2.
This week has been TOUGH, but it’s also been incredible. A few times this week I have laid in bed, not wanting the day to happen. I’ve wanted to stay in bed and sleep, not because I am depressed, because I am tired. I have felt exhausted. Aunt flow paid her visit, I’m low on…

Weekly round up 1
This is it, I did log on to word press and my brain went oooo booking system, lets sort that. But then I would end up down a rabbit hole searching endlessly at booking systems, overwhelming myself, then doing absolutely nothing about it. Does this sound like you too? You are not alone, this is…

Reflecting on My Journey Through Thrive Tribe
When I joined Thrive Tribe, I honestly thought I was just signing up to get help with my business plan. What I didn’t expect was how much it would help me reconnect with myself. It gave me the space to pause, to reflect on how far I’ve come—and for the first time, I saw it…

My Story: The Will to Prove Them Wrong
Joining Thrive Tribe gave me something I hadn’t had in a long time—space to reflect. Time to look back on everything I’ve overcome. All the battles, all the hurdles, all the dark days I thought I’d never get through. And when I really sat with it, I realised something powerful. It wasn’t luck. It wasn’t…

Why CBD
When I took over the café, one of the first things I decided was to keep the CBD element the previous owner had introduced. At first, it wasn’t because I knew loads about it—I didn’t. But I had my own history with the plant, and that journey is what made me want to keep it…

The Journey So Far
It has been quite a journey so far, and I hadn’t even opened the doors yet! Nothing has gone to plan, and at times I’ve seriously considered walking away. But I’ve come too far, poured in too much passion, and I’m determined to bring The Mindful Mug to life. Finding the Café The decision to…
