We free women creates space in women’s lives to reset, reconnect and recharge. Women are brilliant at spinning plates, juggling responsibilities and keeping the whole show on the road – and yet if we give too much, for too long, we often end up pouring from an empty jug.

We Free Women is a not-for-profit organisation that funds retreats and experiences for women who could really do with a break; women who would deeply benefit from the chance to relax and make their wellbeing a priority.

Joy does not arrive with a fanfare
on a red carpet strewn
with the flowers of a perfect life

joy sneaks in
as you pour a cup of coffee
watching the sunlight
hit your favourite tree, just right

and you usher joy away
because you are not ready for her
your house is not as it should be
for such a distinguished guest

but joy cares nothing for your messy home
or your bank-balance, or your waistline, you see

joy is supposed to slither through
the cracks of your imperfect life

that’s how joy works

you cannot truly invite her
you can only be ready when she appears
and hug her with meaning

because in this very moment
joy chose you”
