Woman looking to create change
Right now, I’m in the middle of what I can only describe as a big life chapter. We’re packing up our home in the UK, and in just a few short days we’ll be saying goodbye – not just to this house, but to a whole season of our life here. If you’ve ever gone […]
The statistics speak for themselves. In 2024, according to the Mental Health Burnout Report, 93% of women said they felt high or extreme levels of pressure or stress in the past year.

“The project for Lead the Change was me.” When Susanna Petche joined One of many, she had no idea what that would mean. Diagnosed with complex PTSD and recovering from six months of complete burnout, she came seeking something – anything – that could help her feel like herself again. She found not just tools, […]
We all know that woman who is everyone’s saviour… or everyone’s doormat… depending on how you look at it. Maybe she’s you. She’s the one who is always there to listen to anyone with a problem. The one that you call at the last minute to babysit, the one who’s always there to co-host the […]

“Apparently I’m not just a mum.” That’s how Emma closed her speech – on a stage she never imagined standing on, sharing a voice she once believed no one would want to hear. Just a year earlier, she’d arrived at One Woman Conference (a women’s leadership conference) overwhelmed to tears, literally over choosing a lanyard […]

Try to do everything yourself and you’ll burnout faster than you can say “who needs weekends off anyway?” And yet, when working with others has been a painful experience in the past, it’s understandable that it can be tempting to avoid conflict and shoulder the load […]
“Holy sh*t. I’m actually doing it.” That’s what Elspeth Rae said, sitting in her garden one quiet morning – not just reflecting, but realising that she was finally working on her business, not in it. But this moment of clarity came after a long, raw, and deeply transformational journey. In late 2019, Elspeth made a […]
