Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th April A LIVE event to empower and inspire women to make the best of who they are and honour the wonder within!
FOOD, HORMONES, CLOTHES, CONFIDENCE, WEIGHT, MENOPAUSE....do any of these effect you?
Join us for a day of insightful and engaging talks from a handpicked line up of passionate speakers, whose sole purpose is to inspire and empower you with their individualised expertise and knowledge, covering all the areas above. Complimented by a small, handpicked selection of stalls and our very own Lily May clothing store.
In the evening, we are offering an *optional* showing of the amazingly truthful movie "EMBRACE" which kick started the body image movement. EMBRACE is the journey of Taryn Brumfitt who, on a personal quest to find out why she and so many women hate their bodies, took the world by storm after posting an unconventional before and after photo on social media.
Plus, we are combining our talks, on additional days, with smaller, more personal workshops. These workshops focus on giving you the opportunity to make a deeper connection with the chosen experts. They are designed to enhance your life, help you to take what you've seen and learnt and make positive changes in the areas you need most.
