Love & crumpets
|
It's Sunday morning Reader, I have a little ritual with a good pal of mine. We take breakfast pictures and send them to each other. Often they involve crumpets, because we first bonded over our love of bread based breakfast items. They aren't arty. Frequently they don't even look that delicious but I assure you they are. Even when they toaster is a little over enthusiastic like in this offering: It's a small thing but it keeps us connected. She doesn't even need to share words with me, when I see a picture of a crumpet pop up I know she's thinking of me and I feel all warm and loved. I've realised I have a lot of these rituals, with different groups and individuals. I create them with people because it helps me to make sure we connect, and don't just let a whole year go by without seeing each other. That there is a cadence of connection. Connection is one of my top two values so it makes perfect sense that I'd be doing this. I think this is also one of the reasons why I'm never lonely as a freelancer. I've built an ecosystem of connection that suits me and fills me up with what I need. I'm telling you this because Design Your Year has become one of my rituals. For me, it's an opportunity to feel connected to all of you. A chance to connect deeply with myself and figure out what I want at the beginning of the year. A gentle thread of being connected to my goals and my intentions all year long and making sure that I take the time to check in with them and make progress, rather than endlessly putting them off. Design Your Year 2025 is now on sale. I'm super excited to be hosting it for the fourth year and taking a lovely group through the year together. We start on 12th January and then check in with each other quarterly for a reset. I'm looking forward to seeing who will join for 2025. I'd love to see you Reader if you fancy hanging out together and making progress on your goals. Click here for all the details. See you soon, Rosie |

Hey Reader. Holy guacamole, it's December my friend and according to a quick calculation I just did there are 26 days left in 2025. People keep asking me if I'm running Design Your Year again. The answer to this is a big fat YES! This intention setting to the community is the backbone to my year, and I know it's the same for many of you. So, just to reassure that the reason I haven't sent you any comms about it is not because it's not happening. But because I've been spending way too long on...
Hey Reader. Wow, the last few months have been a lot for me. Last night I gathered with my lovely intention setting community and there was a whole lot going on for people, so I’m guessing you might feel the same. I’ve been taking some time out to rest and process after a huge life change (more on this at some future point). But then I realised I haven't been in touch for ages. When I don't email this Wild & Free community for a long time it can turn into this really big thing. I feel like my...
Heyooo Reader, This week's email is about what happens when you learn to better manage your inner critic. This time last week, I was on the way to host the networking event I run once a month for women in business. It was fabulous, full of uplifting, supportive, awesome connections - as it always is. But, that's not what this email is about. Picture this: I'm standing there, on the very busy overground train, drinking my tea and reading my book, surrounded by humans. The train stops, and more...
