Meet our panel!
Lauren Caffrey – The Zone Personal Training

Starting a business at age of 21 was an easy decision to make for Lauren Caffrey.

Eager to gain experience straight from school, she became a personal trainer at a local gym, building on her fitness knowledge and eventually gaining a client base that would allow her to go it alone.

She opened The Zone PT in 2019, and has recently opened a brand new, state-of-the-art gym, which she transformed from a unit into her vision for The Zone Personal Training.

Lena Elhibir – Africup Coffee

Lena is the Founder of Africup Coffee, an eco-conscious, online speciality coffee brand sourcing Africa’s finest organic coffee beans and supporting Africa’s smallholder coffee farmers. She’s carved out a professional career over the past 8 years spanning corporate communications and marketing with global brands, and is passionate about social impact and purpose-driven brands creating meaningful change.
Nicki Wright – Niksskin

Nicki Wright is the secret behind a number of celebrities’ glowing faces, with clients who travel from all over the UK to experience her treatments and expertise. She is utterly unassuming and is simply the North West’s best kept skincare secret, treating all her clients as equal with her goal being wholly to help people achieve their skin goals.

Nicki firmly believes that beautiful skin begins with optimal skin health. Niksskin, founded by Nicki, steps away from the traditional flaw-focused approach to skin treatments and instead, works on the basis that each individual client should be treated as such. Nicki is more than just a facialist. She looks beyond the surface of the skin and focusses on discovering the cause of concerns, taking her clients on their own bespoke skin journey and educating them on their individual skin needs. Nicki’s personal skin journey some years ago opened her eyes to the difficulty of finding bespoke treatments and accurate advice and information about skin health. She felt that the beauty industry lacked heart and honesty in environments that felt clinical, judgmental, un-relaxing and old-fashioned.

Over three sessions, we look at where unconscious bias comes from and how it shapes the world around us.

Reflect on personal biases and learn about ways to challenge and change the way you think.
Why do we tend to prefer people who are like us?
What leads to stereotyping and how do we reinforce stereotypes without realising?
Why are some people constantly overlooked and excluded?
Crucially, what can we do about it?

These sessions give you the opportunity to start the discussion in an open and non-judgemental way and to identify positive action points. Awareness is the first step but we all need to take the next step and start to make a difference.
This course includes useful strategies for personal development and for making your work-place more inclusive and diverse and is a great foundation for future Equality Training.
The training will take place online via Zoom in 3 sessions, Friday 11th, 18th & 25th June, 10.00am – 12:00pm.

Anouska Skeete – Host Oxton

“Host is a multi-functional store, inspired by the small shops of Amsterdam. Their cute little stores are so limited on space, so they provide as many functions as possible. One thing the effects of COVID-19 and lockdowns have opened the doors to is the ability to adapt and people are more open to new ideas. So the fact our shop provides coffee, light bites, cakes and supports small local sells products, is so well received i believe due to this.

“I love being a hub for people to grow their businesses, people’s dreams and ideas start here. Another positive effect of covid is that some people have had the time to stop and tap in to their creative side and make such beautiful products!

We also welcome any health and well-being classes for adults and children so I feel all in all we’re a good vibe for the community.”

WoConnect - Powering Forward: Self-motivation in Trying Times
2021-06-23 11:00 - 12:00
This expert-led masterclass will help you put your foot back on the gas to drive you or your business forward.

Self-motivation is the burning desire that keeps moving us forward. It is our internal calling to create, develop and cultivate. When we think we are ready to give up, or we just do not know where or how to begin, that’s where self-motivation kicks in and drives us forward to our dreams.
However self-motivation is only one part of self-mastery. Our first port of call is self-awareness because how do we know who we are and what we stand for if we are not aware of our self or the environment around us?
In this webinar Claire will explore with you the 6 Steps to Self-Mastery:

Discover how ‘growth’ mindset can motivate you to succeed in all areas of your life from physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual through to family, career, environment and community.

Start to draft a life plan to begin living the 6 steps on a daily basis to cultivate a life of kindness, gratitude, clarity, focus, wealth and abundance.

Identify the tools and techniques that work for you, enhancing self-awareness, self-care, self-discipline to ignite – self-respect, self-trust and self-acceptance.

It’s time to be the creator of your own life.
