Surround yourself with people who lift you higher. That felt especially true yesterday at our very first 'Watch Party' - a unique mix of learning, networking and working on our businesses.

For anyone who hasn’t come across it yet, our first ever 'Watch Party' took place yesterday - a unique combination of a livestream Masterclass event that focused on helping business owners map out a stronger, smarter, more sustainable plan for the year ahead.

It was packed with insights, strategy and proper no-nonsense advice on building a business that thrives - not just survives - in the run-up to 2026.

But instead of watching it alone at our desks, we decided to host our very own ‘cinema-style’ setup - popcorn included - and I was joined by other ambitious business owners who were also keen to learn and connect with others too.

And honestly, it was brilliant! The content sparked loads of great conversations: How we’re planning for growth… What needs fixing in our businesses… Where the biggest opportunities for 2026 might be…

But the real value?

Being in a room with people who understand the reality of running a business.

After the livestream Masterclass we headed to lunch, carried on the networking, swapped ideas and then spent the afternoon working on our businesses - a perfect opportunity to Learn, Connect and Grow.

It reinforced, once again, something I’ve always believed:

When you surround yourself with like-minded people, your ambition rises, your thinking expands, and you simply move faster.

I’ll definitely be hosting more of these so if you'd like to get on the list to be kept up-to-date just register your interest here...

They’re good for learning, brilliant for connection and great for helping you focus on what you need to do in your business to help move it forward.

Huge thanks to everyone who came along. Bring on the next one. 🎬🍿
