I still can’t quite believe that I won Highly Commended in the Health, Wellbeing and Lifestyle Awards.
Friday 9th May was such an amazing day. It was the Anthena Awards @bwcedinburgh and the launch party for our book ‘From the Heart‘. But it was also the celebration of 7 months of hard work and recognition of how far I’ve come. We also made it to the Best Sellers list on amazon for a few different categories.
The awards were hosted at the stunning @theghilliedhu in Edinburgh, the food was delicious and it was the first time that all the authors met in person and @radkatelyckova on video call. (We will meet face to face one day.)
Normally I get so overwhelmed when I’m in a room of so many people but the atmosphere was so full of love and support instead of competitiveness.
My highly commended award in the Health Wellbeing and Lifestyle category
My heart is full of joy. My coach @alvinamenzies said now think back to October and look how far you’ve come in just 7 months. All my hard work of deep diving into healing and finding my true purpose in life is finally coming to fruition. 💚
I feel so honoured that someone nominated me for the Health, Well-being and Lifestyle Award. At first I didn’t want to accept it as I didn’t think my business was focused on that area. But the more I thought about it, I realised, it is exactly what I’m offering. Funny that it took someone else to recognise me, before I could see it myself.
For 18 years I’ve been designing and making unique pieces of Jewellery.
My Jewellery is more than just creating works of wearable art. It’s helping people to feel confident in their own individual style.
It’s helping people to feel comforted by remembering loved ones, wearing their bespoke, revamped heirloom pieces, made into their own individual style, and carrying their memories forever.
And it’s also about creating a safe space in my jewellery classes so that you feel supported and guided through your creative healing journey. It’s about getting out of your own headspace, making a special piece for yourself and creating memories with your loved ones together. 💚💖
So I’m pleased to announce that I received Highly Commended in the Health Well-being and Lifestyle Award. I feel so honoured and grateful as all the women in the category have incredible businesses.
Congratulations to @wildscottishsauna who won the category and massive congrats to the other amazing finalists, Zoe Mckenna 🍀 Bharti Rajput MBE PhD 🍀 Renée Turner
as well as the other finalists in the other categories. We are all inspirational women!
