Dear fellow doers and thinkers, especially the ones who find it hard to stop: this oneâs for you.
Taking a real holiday, the kind where you allow yourself to fully disconnect, is not just a break. It's an invitation to just BE.
âš The goal? It's a trick question, there is no goal!!!
âš The magic? It often happens when you stop trying.
No pressure to be productive. No expectation to generate breakthroughs. Just... space. Wander. Nap. Gaze at the sea.Â
Free from constant input and to-do lists, your brain will start to defrost, stretch out and wander around to explore new corners too.
So whether youâre hiking a quiet trail, floating in a lake, or simply sipping coffee with nowhere to be, enjoy the stillness and let some creativity sneak in without pressure on it to do so.
Itâs not wasted time. Itâs an investment in yourself.
Because when you return, youâll bring back something rare: not just new energy, but a calm, confident spark that comes from being fully human, not just endlessly bu...

Social media stress? That's what brought us together at the Canva AI workshop hosted by Julie de Meyer as you can tell from the picture!
Â
We explored:
đŻ 2025 Instagram trends
đš Brand kits for that polished look
đ Seamless carousels + animated video posts
đ€ AI tools to speed up and level up our designs
Â
We didnât just learn, but we created our carousels on the spot too. Fast, fun, and tailored to our businesses. Julie kept us calm and curious, even when the tech got fancy. đ
Â
Key takeaway: With the right tools, social media gets way easier, and getting on top of your social media game becomes a reality.
Â
Iâm excited to launch something new for our community: a Book Club, starting this September! đ
Our very first session will be on 24th September, from 16:00 to 17:30, and weâre kicking things off with Atomic Habits by James Clear, the go-to book for building better habits (and finally ditching the ones that drive us nuts). Havenât read it yet? No problem. Just come along, enjoy a relaxed apĂ©ro, and join the discussion.
The insightful AimĂ©e DuBrule will guide the conversation, helping us explore the bookâs ideas and how we can actually use them in our lives and businesses. This isnât just about talking theory, itâs about finding practical, real-world takeaways and sharing whatâs worked (or not!) for each of us.
Curious to learn more about Aimée, read her member profile article here.
When?

24th September 2025

đ· With apĂ©ro, obviously
Free to join & celebrate the launch of a new event!Â
Whoâs it for?
Itâs for you, the awesome community members: if you love a good book, great...
Donât lose sight of how far youâve come and above all, don't stand still.
Hereâs the thing no one tells you:
If you only focus on whatâs missing, you might give up, not because youâre failing, but because you think you are.
Itâs dangerously easy to ignore your wins.
To obsess over whatâs not working, whatâs not done, whatâs still not good enough and ultimately the money that is NOT coming in.
But if you donât pause to see your progress, hereâs what can happen:
You lose motivation when progress feels invisible.
Motivation thrives on feedback. If you canât see whatâs working, your brain registers effort without reward, which is demoralising and can lead to you wanting to quit.Â
You miss the âcompound interestâ of consistency.
Just like savings, small efforts build up. But if you ignore your daily actions, you undervalue your long-term growth, and may abandon a process right before the tipping point. (Think: James Clearâs concept of delayed results from Atomic Habits.)
You overlook your...
Saboteurs arenât villains... originally!
Theyâre just our defence mechanisms on overdrive. The inner voices that think theyâre helping us and keeping us safe, but often end up hindering us instead. đ
The workshop led by Helen von Dadelszen was insightful and fun:
âš We laughed.
đ€Ż We had âahaâ moments.
đŁïž We shared openly, same fears, different flavours.
đ We saw ourselves more clearly and were able to pinpoint how they show up.
đŻ And we played a cheeky game of cat and mouse with our saboteurs.
This workshop wasnât about fixing anything, it was about awareness and leaning into who we are naturally.
Creating a safe space to understand how we self-sabotage, and how to shift into our wiser, calmer selves. đ§ââïž
Some takeaways?

Aimée DuBrule - "I help high-performing leaders navigate leaders through complex transitions to navigate their professional journey with clarity and purpose"
She is a part of the "Grow my WHY" MasterMind group and has been a member since November 2023.Â
Â
AimĂ©e is also the author of the blog "mind stuff".Â
She is an optimistic high achiever that fell prey to depression when her successful life imploded around her all at once.
In her articles she writes openly and rawly about picking up the pieces and painfully sorting through the aftermath.
Aimée helps high-performing leaders navigate mid-career challenges, find better work-life balance, and leaders through complex transitions to navigate the next chapter of their professional journey with more clarity and purpose.
She offers 1:1 and is developing a framework that combines mindfulness, positive psychology, and mental fitness to equip leaders with practical tools for resilience and insight during times of change.
Aimée literally...
July and August are our official "snooze"Â months. No in-person events, no formal gatherings. Just sun, space, and the sweet sound of not having to be anywhere.
The B-inspired Community takes a well-deserved breather during this time, and I hope you do too.
So often creativity happens in the "space in between". Growth doesn't always come from the hustle; sometimes it comes from hammocks, hikes, and half-finished books.
There are no in person events happening during this time, nor MasterMinds meetings. All memberships are put on pause and your 6-month period will resume in September.
Â
But if you donât want to go entirely off the radar, here are a few ideas in which to use the extra space:
- Revisit your âideas Iâll do laterâ folder. Delete what is no longer relevant and fall in love with what you were not ready for at the time but now is perfect!
- Make a playful and useful âStart Hereâ guide for new clients/followers from the luxury of your sun lounger.Â
- Batch-schedule content with a ...
Self-Confidence vs. Self-Esteem - Know the Difference. Own Your Power.
Is your confidence a show⊠or does it go deep?
Most of us use self-confidence and self-esteem like theyâre the same thing. Theyâre not. And knowing the difference? Thatâs where things start to shift.
Join us for a fun, practical and slightly mind-bending session with Karin Casutt, she brings with her a wealth of HR experience, is a people strategist, and all-around human potential explorer, as we uncover what really shapes how you see yourself (and how to upgrade it).
Read more about Karin in her member profile article here.
This is about understanding the psychology behind confidence and esteem and building both in ways that actually stick.
Youâll discover:
â
The difference between confidence and self-esteemÂ
â
How to spot, and stop, the beliefs that quietly sabotage your growth
â
A simple mindset shift to build self-worth that doesnât crack under pressure
â
How to feel more confident without having to âfake it t...
Well⊠here's the real story.
Â
We just hosted our second Speed Networking event.
Yes, it was:
âš Fun
⥠Full of energy
đ€ A place where real connections were made
đŹ And I got some lovely feedback
Â
And stillâŠ
Â
đ My communication in the run-up was a bit off.
đ I had hoped to hold it outside, the group was large, and indoors felt like a recipe for heat and noise overload.
đ Trying to be transparent, I told people to âlayer up â weâre going outside come hell or high water.â
đ Turns out... hell came with rain and freezing temperatures. đ„¶
đ The brave ones showed up ready for battle, but understandably, many opted out.
Â
đ Inside, the space just didnât work as well this time.
đ Weâd used it before with no issues, but more people, different setup⊠it didnât flow as well.
đ I had to shout. I gave myself a headache. By round three, I gave up and we pivoted to casual networking.
Â
Was it a successâ
Yes. 100%. And Iâd do it again.
Â
Was it smoothâ
Nope. And thatâs ok.
Â
I...
