Confident Ladies -Starting Over in Style is a social networking group designed to bring together women who have experienced a significant change in their personal circumstances. Changes such as, divorce, separation, redundancy even child birth, can leave you feeling as though you have 'lost yourself ' and feeling overwhelmed at the thought of 'what do I do now?'
As Bridgett Jones said in her diary, "It is a truth universally acknowledged that when one part of your life starts going ok another falls spectacularly to pieces".
I decided to set up Confident ladies after going through some life changes myself and after each of these I was left thinking 'Ok, what do I do now?' For example, when I divorced after 14 years of marriage I was left with three small daughters and four bin bags full of our belongings. It was scary stuff! I muddled through and over the next year or so I found a full time job, sorted out child care, found a house, sorted a will, sorted out life insurance. More importantly I managed to sort out myself which ultimately led to me sorting out my life. It has been a bit like a game of Snakes and Ladders sometimes I'd feel like things were progressing really well then one of those pesky Snakes would come along and I'd be back a few places again. Last year a big Snake came to get me and I was made redundant, however life has taught me that there is often something good around the corner if you look for it. So that's how Confident Ladies came to be. HAVE A LOOK AT OUR WEBSITE www.confidentladies.co.uk to find out about our events & workshops all designed to get you starting over in style!
