You’re already more eco-friendly than you realise

You’re already more eco-friendly than you realise

by Lyn Lapworth

When was the last time you yelled ‘close the door behind you!’ (were you born in a barn??)  or ‘who left the lights on?!’ Why do you think you do that? These are habits we’ve applied over the years, without even realising it’s...
Why being Eco-friendly is more affordable than you think

Why being Eco-friendly is more affordable than you think

by Lyn Lapworth

How it all began In October 2020 a friend of mine made a comment about how she thought being eco-friendly was expensive. This was a real light bulb moment – there and then, I knew I had to do something to prove otherwise. I had 2 young children and as a family...

Nearly there!! We've made it to the Bank Holiday Nearly there!! We've made it to the Bank Holiday weekend. And for those with school aged children, we've made it to half term. This week has been a week of exams for my daughter, and as we head towards the end of the academic year, both my children are really ready for the break. As a mum/business owner, I am often managing my energy so I'm there for my kids when they need the extra support, but also making sure I give enough to my business. Let's face it, as a business owner we never really switch off do we? As much as I love the summer, I'm very aware the next few weeks will be about making sure we all get enough rest. So I'm seriously excited at the prospect of cohosting my Slow Living retreat with the wonderful @shehnaaz_latif on 19th July. It's perfect timing as the schools will have finished for the summer, so it's the ideal opportunity to take some time out before the juggle of having kids at home vs keeping on top of running the business. Ladies, we can't pour from an empty cup, so I am inviting you to join myself and Shehnaaz Latif for a few hours of peace. No questions, no interruptions, no demands. Just relaxation, mindfulness and engaging with nature. Away from it all. Ask yourself, when was the last time you felt fully rested? This day is designed to leave you floating on air. The link is in the bio and if you book before 30th May, you'll also benefit from the early bird price. #selfcare #wellbeing #workingmum #businesswomen
Today is #worldbeeday, so here's why we should car Today is #worldbeeday, so here's why we should care - and simple ways we can help... Bees are pollinators - we know that - but did you know they, along with other pollinators, are responsible for pollinating 1/3 of the food we eat? Did you know that a whopping 90% of wild flowering plants are also dependant on pollination? We have 270 species of bee in the UK and we need to care for every single one if them. Our bee populations are in rapid decline due to loss of habitat, widespread pesticide use and climate change affecting the flowers they rely on for food. So here's 3 simple ways you can help them- 🐝 Plant nectar rich flowers, such as heathers, lavender, dahlias and bluebells - in your garden or a window box if you don't have a garden 🐝 Provide nesting sites such as bee hotels made from bound together sticks of bamboo 🐝 Make sure you provide water for them. They need to drink too - and with the next few days looking hot, this will be vital for them. Find an old dish, fill with water and add stones to it so the bees have somewhere safe to land. And keep checking if it needs topping up. 👌 There's also a fabulous company called Beevive Ltd who sell a tonic for struggling bees, so if you find one that's not looking in great shape, this will bee a life saver. #pollinator #beefriendly #beefriendlyflowers
You are allowed to have fun in the name of work! You are allowed to have fun in the name of work! And yesterday wasn't just fun, it was empowering, inspiring and it filled my heart. I spent a few hours in the company of our @athenawarks network tribe - 103 women to be precise. Most were members, some ladies were just curious about what they've been missing. 103 women! All quietly going about making the world a better place. All out to support each other. All more powerful than they realise. I simply would not be without them. Our leader @iamhollynixon somehow manages to create the most fabulous atmosphere - these rooms have a buzz of excitement. It's a chance to strengthen relationships and build new ones. Thank you Holly - you've created something very special.
Friday was huge. It involved evolving, inspiring, Friday was huge. It involved evolving, inspiring, making new connections, chocolate planets and chit chat. I spent the day at Time to Evolve, hosted by the fabulous Andrea Lennard @purepegasuscoaching - not just as an attendee but as a speaker and exhibitor too. The room was full of business owners ready to learn about healing old wounds and stepping up to be the best version of themselves. Andrea had carefully selected exhibitors to compliment the theme of the day - evolving in to the people we're meant to be. I spoke about looking after our health by focusing on our immediate environment. Jane Brook @houseofcolourworcester and Suzy Finnegan @getyourglowwithsuzyfinnegan shared why looking after our appearance isn't about vanity, but about confidence and feeling comfortable in our own skin. And there were speakers on numerology, aloe Vera and a fascinating talk from @kelly_reclaimyou of Reclaim You, who introduced us to an entirely new way we can look after ourselves. I will probably be remembered as the lady who gave out chocolate planets though. A huge thank you to the super talented Victoria Thurkettle of @rawsomechocolateuk who's handmade bespoke vegan chocolates were a huge hit! Then Friday evening was a whole other new experience - attending PechaKucha @pkleamingtonspa . If you don't know about it, PechaKucha is a worldwide phenomenon where speakers are given 20 slides with a 20 second time limit per slide, in which to share their story and their expertise. And I had 3 friends on the line up, so couldn't miss it! Keira Smith @rewiretothrive Clare Spiers @griefspecialist_clare and Tina Römer @spiritgate_acupuncture absolutely smashed it! A massive congratulations to @katiejones_design for an incredible event. It was a full house. And Mario Barba @barbacreative is a natural born compere. Needless to say Saturday was a day for resting. 😅
Can someone please tell me what season it is?? Th Can someone please tell me what season it is?? This afternoon I headed out to meet gorgeous friend - and the very first client to complete my RAMP program, @laurengregory_pt We were meeting for a walk and a catch up - and I had no idea whether to go with raincoat, sunglasses, SPF or what!!!? Somehow, we managed to complete our walk AND have a drink outside without getting soaked. Just as we finished our chat and we're saying our goodbyes, the hail started. I'm sure within the space of half an hour we had rain, then sun, then hail and black skies, then blue sky and sun again. I'm currently feeling very British with all this talk of weather. 😅🫣 #fourseasons #springweather #whattowear
We learned something valuable a few years ago that We learned something valuable a few years ago that many of us seem to have forgotten. The positive impact spending time in nature has on our mental health. So for #mentalhealthawareness week, I thought I'd remind why we were encouraged to get out for walks over Lockdown. It wasn't just for physical exercise, it was to support our mental health at a really difficult time. But we seem to have slipped back in to being busy all the time, and not making time to look after our wellbeing. I know that whenever I'm struggling with overwhelm, the first thing I do is head out for a walk. And I usually litter pick along the way to boost that feeling of doing something positive. Any time we spend outdoors can help to reduce stress, boost our mood and restore a sense of calm. I also find it's when I have my most creative ideas. The theme of this year's mental health awareness week is 'take action' so what action can you take to improve your me talk health? 🫶 Checking in with someone else is a powerful reminder most people have something they're dealing with at any given time 🫶 do something constructive, like go for a litter pick or plant some bee friendly flowers. These bring a real feel good factor 🫶 but above all else, be kind to yourself. We all have moments when we're not feeling at our best, so don't give yourself such a hard time for not always being 'on top form' We're all guilty of it, but it's human nature. Kindness is more important than ever. So this week of all weeks, let's spread a little kindness wherever we go. #wellbeing #kindness #mentalhealth
Have you noticed? Changes are happening... If yo Have you noticed? Changes are happening... If you've been out over the weekend, you may have noticed our roadside verges are full of colour. Thanks to many councils embracing #nomowmay you'll be blessed with the uplifting variety of wildflowers decorating the countryside. And I'm here for it! Not just for the fabulous colours, but for what it brings. Our pollinators. Butterflies, ladybirds and all manner of bee species are appearing. And that's a very good thing. Have you noticed an abundance of flowers near you? If you're rushing around, you may have missed them, so I'm encouraging you to slow down as you're missing a treat. Noticing the beauty of nature is something we need more of in our lives. Appreciating how complex and remarkable it is only comes when we allow ourselves the time to really stop and notice. So I'm inviting you to stop and explore for our glorious Slow Living day retreat. You will be given time to slow down and headspace to really think about how nature supports our wellbeing (away from all the demands) The date for your diary is 19th July. Shehnaaz Latif and I will take care of you for the day. Please see the details in my bio. And if you book before the end of May, you'll benefit from the early bird price. 🌸 🌹 🌻 💐 🥀 🌷 🌼 🌼 🌺 🪷 🪻
My voice is hoarse, my cheeks ache from smiling an My voice is hoarse, my cheeks ache from smiling and I'm topped on hugs... It can only mean I've spent the day surrounded by fabulous friends and inspiring women at the @womanwhouk awards hosted by champion of business women @sandragarlickmbe We were treated to fabulous speakers on subjects from sales and scaling to wellness. I got to spend the day with many of my @athenawarks tribe AND we celebrated the fabulous Donna Wilson @focusfinanci3ls winning the very first award of the day! Definitely a day to celebrate. Now I'm going to lie down in a quiet room for a few hours. 😅
Tomorrow is a HUGE day. Not only will I be attend Tomorrow is a HUGE day. Not only will I be attending the @womanwhouk Who awards organised by local legend @sandragarlickmbe but 8th May is important for another reason. The 8th May 2026 is his Highness Sir David Attenborough's 100th birthday. He is, quite simply, a living legend. I can't think of any 1 person that has carried such influence and is so highly respected as Sir David. And rightly so. He has 100 years of life experience. He has been to places we've never heard of, introduced us to creatures we'd never come across and experienced things we will never get to try. And he's seen changes too. Some good, most not so good. From the start of his career in the 1950's to the present, he's witnessed changes, such as how plastic waste has impacted wildlife, he's seen animals impacted by droughts, wildfires and floods and he's constantly reminded us, that we all have a responsibility to protect this planet and all living things that survive here. And who are we to argue? We can all make a few simple changes to the way we go about our lives. We can all make more conscious decisions when it comes to our purchases. We can all stop and think about our own impact - and the legacy we'll be leaving. We owe it to ourselves and we owe it to the next generations. We all have an impact on the Earth every single day and we should choose wisely what we can do to reduce it. In his words “If working apart we are a force powerful to destabilise our planet, surely working together we are powerful enough to save it…in my lifetime I’ve witnessed a terrible decline. In yours, you could and should witness a wonderful recovery.” If more of us work together - what is the worst that can happen? Cleaner air and water. A healthier environment. Fewer endangered species. Sounds good to me. #happybirthday #livinglegend #lifeexperience #inthistogether
Let's dive straight in... We know plastic is the Let's dive straight in... We know plastic is the bad guy. But we're not sure exactly why it's so bad. We know it harms ocean wildlife. But we don't know just how big the problem is, or what we can do about it. It's too big a problem right?? However, there are many, many reasons why we should try. Here's 3 to get you started- 1. plastic is an oil based product - anything you can do to reduce plastic in your life, will simultaneously reduce your carbon footprint. Double win. 2. the more plastic you have in your home, the higher the rate of microplastics you're exposing yourself to. We're currently breathing in 6g microplastics every single week. So it's not just a problem for the wildlife anymore. It's a problem for you and your family. 3. Consumer power works. The sooner we change our buying habits, the quicker our supermarkets will take action - and I'm talking much more than just 'buying lose fruit and veg' - though that's a good start. On 1st July at 10am I'm hosting my 'Send Plastic Packing' webinar. It's designed to inform you of many many simple changes you can make around the home to reduce the various types of plastic. I'll also be sharing some of the products you may be using, without realising they contain plastic. You'll leave with a greater understanding of what you can do to make a difference, to your own health, as well as the health of our environment. Book your seat here today.
