Announcing Edition 37, landing this June and it’s one you’ll definitely want to get your hands on!

Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs, shaking things up when we least expect it. But there’s real magic in how we choose to embrace those twists and turns. And that’s exactly what this Summer Special is all about. Inside, you’ll find inspiring stories of bold reinvention, unexpected love, fearless activism, quiet revolutions, the beautiful chaos of motherhood and the courage it takes to let go of what no longer serves us.

FEATURING…

✨ Our cover story with , former Editor-in-Chief of HELLO! Magazine, who opens up about the moment everything changed. From the outside, it looked like she had it all, but behind the scenes, she was exhausted, disconnected and craving a life on her own terms.

✨ Our Brand Story with Emma Thornton, former founder of TRUE Skincare. Emma shares the heartfelt story of building a business she loved, and the brave, life-changing decision to step away and sell the business.

✨ A lifestyle feature with , international relationship and dating expert. Once a high-flying economist, Sami left the corporate world to help ambitious women unlock romantic success without sacrificing their ambition. Can we really have it all? She shares her take.

✨ A special feature with Yana Smaglo, founder of .fashion.official, who fled Ukraine as war broke out, leaving behind everything she knew. Yana’s story is one of resilience, reinvention and using business as a powerful form of activism.

✨ A Quick Chat with Yasmine McDougall Sterea, former Editor of VOGUE Brazil and now founder [email protected],, a movement empowering women globally and creating lasting social change.

And of course, you’ll find plenty more brilliant articles and thought-provoking reads from our amazing contributors.

As you read, hopefully with a glass of something chilled on a warm summer's evening, I know these stories will inspire you and offer a glimpse into the lives of extraordinary women writing their own rules.

Is Media Training a Head Fake? 🤔📺

Have you ever heard of a ‘head fake’? It’s when what you think you’re learning isn’t what you’re actually learning.

, a former BBC and AFP journalist turned media trainer, argues that traditional media training focuses too much on polish — and not enough on presence.

After 3,000+ interviews, Claire realised the people who make a lasting impression aren’t the ones with perfect facts and rehearsed lines. It’s the ones who feel at ease in their own skin.

In her article, Claire shares how she and her business partner Helen Percival — an ex-journalist and trained actress — help leaders ditch the armour and connect for real. Through body, breath and voice work, they teach clients to stop acting confident and start feeling it.

It’s media training, but not as you know it.

What an incredible CONNECT session today where I had invited the fabulous .coney to join us for an in-depth conversation about building an impactful brand. As expected, she was absolutely brilliant in sharing her expertise and gave us all so much to think about and to be aware of.

The first question I asked the group was to reflect on a moment this past month when someone said to them, “Wow, that really spoke to me,” or “That truly resonated.” They were then invited to share what they did, said or created that made that impact in the breakouts.

I asked this question because, in the pursuit of big goals and bold visions, it’s easy to overlook the small but powerful ways we, as a person, as a brand can impact individuals.

This led us into a rich and inspiring conversation with Janine on how to build an impactful brand that truly connects. We explored so many valuable angles together — but here are just a few standout takeaways:

🌟Never underestimate the ripple effect of your presence. What you say and how you show up can impact one person’s day or inspire an entire community. Your personal brand lives in both your actions and your words.

🌟In a fast-moving, AI-driven world, standing out means staying rooted in authenticity. Let your true voice, thoughts and message lead — technology can support, but it’s your human touch that sets you apart.

In Janine's words: '"Most things are Googable these days, but people can't Google your opinion and your views in the same way."

🌟Stop gatekeeping your brilliance. People need to experience your value before they invest — especially now.

🌟There’s real power in building your own community. When you understand who it’s for and lead with purpose, you create space for connection, support and meaningful growth. Define your people, know your ‘why' and the impact will follow.

Our next CONNECT session is on Wed 21st May.
