"How did I miss your posts about this? "

I had so many messages saying you'd missed me promoting my TikTok Bootcamp the first time around and only spotted it when I posted about how well the session went (and how proud I was of my attendees!) The temptation is to blame the algorithm but the truth is we are all busy!

But to make sure you don't miss it this time, I'm starting early.

By popular request, another TikTok Bootcamp for Beginners will be running on Wednesday 28th January.

This half-day online session is perfect if you want to use TikTok to grow your business but don’t know where to start — or you’ve been lurking on the app thinking “I really should figure this out.”

In this practical, hands-on bootcamp we’ll cover:
- Setting up and optimising your TikTok profile
- How to talk to your ideal audience
- Editing basics (yes, I show you step-by-step)
- Creative content ideas tailored to your business
- The algorithm (it’s not as scary as you think!)
- How to read analytics so you can improve your content
…and you’ll leave with the confidence to finally post.

Still not sure? Check out what previous attendee said below!

Spaces are kept small so I can support everyone properly. If you want to join us, you can book your space here: https://www.roseleighmedia.co.uk/eventsandtrainingsessions/p/half-day-tiktok-online-bootcamp-e7wby

Can’t wait to see you there!

I received some really lovely feedback this week from The Leprosy Mission International about the crisis communications toolkit I created for them - and the follow up global training session I delivered to support it.

It genuinely means a lot when an organisation you work with goes out of their way to let you know you've done a good job.

This project was complex, detailed, and required a deep understanding of how their international teams work day to day. I wanted to make sure the toolkit wasn’t just “theory”, but something practical, clear and genuinely useful in the middle of a crisis - and hearing that it’s already giving people more confidence makes all the hours worth it.

Good crisis communications can protect people, prevent misinformation, and preserve trust when it matters most. You never know when a crisis is going to happen, but I help you be prepared when it does.

In their email, they shared that they felt in safe hands throughout the process, that the toolkit is clear and easy to use, and that the training helped their teams feel much more prepared for situations none of us ever want to face. That kind of feedback is the best part of this work.

I’ll be continuing to support them into the new year, and I’m really proud of what we’ve built together so far.

If your organisation needs help strengthening your crisis communications - whether that’s toolkits, training, or hands on support - I’m always happy to chat.

24/11/2025

Over the years, I’ve learned that the difference between a well managed crisis and a communications disaster often comes down to one thing - preparation. And not just any preparation. It’s about knowing your plan, knowing your people, and spotting early warning signs before small issues spiral.

In my experience, most crises don’t appear out of nowhere. They often start as small things: a missed email, a comment taken the wrong way, an incident no one’s quite sure how to handle. That’s where communication makes all the difference.

When I develop crisis plans, guides and run familiarisation sessions, I focus on helping teams:
- Recognise early indicators and escalate appropriately
- Respond with clarity and calm
- Stay aligned internally before communicating externally

Because how you respond in the first few hours doesn’t just protect reputations - it protects people.

My background as a journalist taught me how quickly stories can move, how tone shapes trust, and how small missteps can escalate. Those lessons are with me in every piece of crisis work I do today - whether it’s creating new frameworks, advising senior teams, or guiding staff through real life scenarios.

Some key principles I always share:
- Ultimately our job is to protect people first. Reputations matter, but only after those affected by the crisis itself are safe.
- Communicate early, clearly, and consistently. Share verified facts and keep colleagues informed.
- Escalate quickly. Don’t wait until you’re sure - it’s better to raise the issue when it's a small problem, than let it grow and become a catastrophe.
- Have templates and checklists for your staff - and actually use them.
- Learn every time. If you've dealt with a crisis you'll know some things go well, and other things less so. If we capture what works and feed it into your process - we can make the next crisis run more smoothly.

A strong crisis plan is about confidence and giving people the tools to say, “We’ve got this.”

If your organisation hasn’t reviewed its crisis comms recently, now is the perfect time. We are heading into a new year soon - let's make sure you're prepared in 2026.

Absolute pleasure to have been invited to speak about PR at in Sutton Coldfield yesterday.

Bev Skitt asked if I could run a "5 Steps to becoming a PR Superstar" session - and I'm not used to someone else coming up with my talk titles, but it really gave me focus on what the room might need. A 15 minute planned talk turned into over an hour because of lively conversations, thoughtful insights and great questions. There's something really powerful about being in a room full of brilliant women, running amazing businesses who start to realise that they do have a story to tell and it's worth sharing.

I got into PR because I love storytelling and yesterday I broke down what that means for women led businesses and their visibility.

We covered;
What is PR? Really?
How to craft your own story - what makes us unique?
What are PR channels and how do I choose which ones to use?
How do I even contact a journalist, or pitch my story?
How do we utilise PR and turn it into long term visibility?

There were anecdotes, stories, questions and more importantly for me - understanding. Seeing a switch flick and women say "Oh yes this is what I would talk about" It was brilliant. I left feeling energised and reminded why I love this work.

A small and mighty little group, who I hope have gone away inspired to tell their story. Great to see Rowena Wilding Becky Street

If you’d like support crafting your own story to help increase your visibility, I’d love to chat. My 1:1s and consultancy days are always open.

I worried when going self employed that I wouldn't have a Christmas party to go to. I needn't have - because joining so many great networking groups means I have my pick of them!

Yesterday I had my first turkey and trimmings dinner of the season with the brilliant women at Riva Blu in Birmingham.

LoveBiz came into my life at exactly the right time. Not long after my TED Talk, Sue Crooks reached out and said, “You HAVE to come and speak at our International Women's Day event in March.” I did — and the response was incredible. Since then, being part of this community has helped me build not just my business, but my confidence too. The conversations that happen in rooms like this are genuinely powerful.

Yesterday was no exception.

Someone asked me not just how business was going, but how I was coping mentally. It caught me off guard a bit because even though I'm a big advocate of speaking openly about mental health there is still a bit of a stigma when you’re face to face. But this person was asking with genuine care, and a few of us ended up talking about how tough this year has been for women in business, and the mental toll that can take. It was honest, vulnerable and needed.

I also had a brilliant chat about how I package my services. Yes, I specialise in charities and faith organisations, but I love working with any business that has a story to tell and sometimes a retainer can feel like a scary option. So I've come up with - thanks to some feedback from my peers at the dinner - some new ideas that I'll be introducing in the new year.

Networking is about selling your services, there's no denying that, but it's also an important place, particularly for women, to have real conversations with people who understand the pressure, the excitement, and the emotional weight of running a business.

I can't thank Sue enough for creating such a fab space in LoveBiz. If one of your New Year's resolutions is to network more then do consider joining (I may even have a free guest pass for you!)

I definitely feel not only more festive but more focussed as I end the year and look forward to 2026!

A few weeks ago, I delivered an international familiarisation session for The Leprosy Mission International - helping staff from across 27 countries feel confident using their new Crisis Communications Guide.

These sessions bring the guide to life, showing teams exactly how to respond to crises - from safeguarding and media issues to unexpected challenges - and practice real scenarios. We also talk about how to adapt the plan for different country contexts because even the best guide in the world won’t help if people don’t know how to adapt and use it for their team.

The first session brought together staff from comms teams across countries including Australia, India, France, Germany, Nigeria, Nepal, Northern Ireland, and Great Britain. Tomorrow, I’ll be running the second session for those who couldn’t make it.

My favourite part of the training is seeing people realise they are much clearer on what they would need to do in a crisis scenario.

One attendee summed it up perfectly:

“I was impressed with your presentation and the attention to detail. You’ve developed a fantastic resource. Thank you.”

That’s what it’s all about. Building confidence, clarity and calm — before the crisis ever hits.

If your organisation has a plan sitting somewhere but no one’s sure how to use it… maybe a rewrite and a familiarisation session are exactly what’s needed. Contact me to find out how I can support your organisation.

Yesterday I ran my very first TikTok for business online bootcamp - and I must say it was an absolute joy!

We were a small group (last minute drop out meant even more one on one time) and that made it such a relaxed and practical morning. Suzie Jacobs and Louisa Coleby were a joy to host.

In the 3 hour interactive session we talked through;
Setting up and optimising your profile
Understanding your audience
Filming and editing content
Coming up with creative ideas
TikTok Shop basics
The scary (not so scary after all) algorithm
How to use analytics to improve your content
And so much more - we could have spent all day going through everything!

The aim was for the attendees to walk away with a fully optimised profile, the skills they needed to create content and find their why, so they could post straight away. I hope they left with clearer strategies, fresh ideas, and the confidence to show up online. (I've already seen that Suzie has posted her first video and must admit it made me feel a bit proud!)

It’s really important to me to help women feel empowered to use platforms like TikTok to grow their businesses, share their stories, and show up by being themselves and being creative on the platform.

I hope I've taken away some of the overwhelm that TikTok seems to bring - part of the session was spent talking about it not being so scary and you really can't break it by testing it out! (A lesson for all parts of our business I think)

What a great first session and I'm hoping it is the first of many. If you're interested in learning more about the platform and how you can start posting about your business, comment or DM me and I'll put you on the list for future dates.

For the pic I made them get used to seeing their faces on screen so posting is less scary and they can show up as their fabulous selves!

Wow wow wow. What a day at the Fearless Female Finance Festival.

I can sometimes leave networking events and seminars feeling really drained but yesterday I left feeling inspired, proud, almost joyous really.

First up huge congratulations to Karen Heap of and Jo Querelle. To come up with something so inspiring, based on what could be perceived as an inherently dull subject (I’m sorry finance people), and turn it around from “I’m dreading doing my accounts” to “I deserve to earn lots of money and here’s how I’m going to do it” is truly something.

The room was FULL of inspiring women and just being around that energy completely changes how you feel about yourself, your business and (obviously) your finances.

Big thanks to the amazing co host Sandra Godley, who facilitated the event along with Karen so well. All of the speakers were absolutely incredible, and I genuinely mean that. A big shout out to Dawn Owen who I hadn’t met before, but who put a rocket under me from the beginning of the day where we sat and had a chat, to her talk and the end of the day which left me feeling like I knew exactly what changes I was going to make. She really reminded me that a relationship with money is just as much about mindset as it is about numbers.

Events like this also remind me how powerful storytelling is - every speaker had their own story, and that’s what really connected with the room.

I hadn’t expected the day to be such a great networking opportunity (I'd thought seminars and lessons) but I met so many wonderful women – those who were brand new, those whose faces I recognised (but neither of us could work out from where) and those I already know. The conversations were great, and it was just amazing being surrounded by incredible people.

Huge thanks again to the organisers for creating such a powerful space, and to the speakers for sharing their knowledge. You’ve made such an impact.

Over the past few months, I’ve been working with The Leprosy Mission International to update and strengthen their crisis communications.

Together, we’ve developed a comprehensive Crisis Communications Guide that will be used across 27 countries, helping teams respond clearly, calmly, and compassionately when the unexpected happens.

It covers everything from safeguarding and reputational issues to natural disasters and media allegations. And it breaks down things like;
- Roles and responsibilities for everyone involved, with escalation guidance if key people are unavailable
- Step-by-step crisis response processes, from detection and verification to approval and post-crisis review
- Social media guidance, including tone, posting advice, and examples
- Plus ready to use templates and checklists with continuous improvement advice, so lessons learned feed into future responses.

The guide is practical and built to work in real life, not sit on a shelf.

I was brought in to ensure the guide works for their internal structure and teams, drawing on my experience as a journalist and in press offices. That means understanding how stories break, how tone shapes trust, and spotting early warning signs before small issues become crises.

It’s been a brilliant project to work on and it reminds me why I do what I do: I want to help organisations feel like they know what to do with regards to communications when a crisis hits.

If your organisation hasn’t reviewed its crisis comms in a while, it’s worth doing - before you ever need it, because who knows what's around the corner?

I love talking about TikTok - it’s such an underused business tool, and I’m always surprised by how many people still think it’s just for teens and dancing videos.

It’s actually one of the most powerful search engines out there (yes more so than Google), with huge numbers of Millennials and Gen X using it daily to find out information, new business and products. There’s so much opportunity for businesses to stand out - and I want to show you how.

That’s why I created my TikTok Bootcamp for Beginners, and it’s happening next Wednesday (12th November)!

This half-day, hands-on session will take you from “I know I should be on TikTok” to “I’m confidently posting content that grows my business.”

We’ll cover:
How to set up and optimise your profile (from downloading the app to choosing your username)
Content ideas tailored to your business and audience
TikTok Shop and selling directly through the app
Practical exercises and live feedback so you can post with confidence

If TikTok’s been sitting on your to-do list for too long but you really don't know what to do to get started - this is your sign.

It’s practical, friendly, and designed to help you feel confident from day one.

When: Wednesday 12th November, 9.30am–12.30pm
Where: Online via Zoom
Cost: £80

Spaces are limited so everyone gets hands-on support - grab your spot here
