FlourishHer

FlourishHer Helping women 40+ create simple yet powerful wellness habits for a thriving midlife.FlourishHer founder. How? Why this mattered to me?

I'm Michelle a 49 year old midlife woman and Wellness Habits Coach. I live in Canterbury with my husband Rob and our 2 teens, Sonny & Martha. I've always worked in roles where people have been at the centre of what I do...... but I'll admit I haven't always looked after my mind & body. An unbalanced diet, excess processed food and alcohol, no exercise and a smoker with no focus on my mental healt

h. My weight was increasing and generally, I wasn't feeling great. Starting a family in my 30's prompted a couple of wellness changes, but the magic moment came for me when at 35, I started my career in Health & Wellness. I learned the key principles in what supports us to live in better health, such as; nutrition, healthy weight loss, sleep, movement and emotional wellbeing . Along with techniques on how to apply them in real life. I've been priviledged to have worked with hundreds of adults, over 1000's of hours and I've seen how small, steps and personalised support can help people thrive in their life. In short it changed my whole life. I walked my talk, explored and applied the health training/behaviour change techniques to myself and by taking one step at a time, I began to thrive in my mind & body, which is where I am today. As a midlife, perimenopausal woman, I'm fully aware of the transition our body goes through during this phase of our lives along with the challenges that may arise. It's my passion and purpose in helping women like you to thrive, feel good and live the midlife you want.

September can feel like a little fresh start…

After a hot summer of busy diaries, holidays, family, work, and looking after everyone else. September can feel like just the right time to pause and come back home to ourselves.

And that’s exactly what we’ll be doing at our next FlourishHer, women’s gathering in Canterbury🧡

WELCOME HOME

An uplifting evening to pause, reflect and reconnect with you.
I’ll also be introducing The Flourish Way , four simple practices that sit at the heart of FlourishHer and my coaching:
Reconnect • Reframe • Nurture • Shine ✨
There’ll be our usual meaningful Flourish Conversations, gentle reflection, practical tools and plenty of warmth and connection.
No fixing. No pressure to reinvent yourself.
Just a little space to remember what helps you flourish.

Tuesday 2 September
The Drapers Arms, Canterbury
6.45–8.20pm

I’d love to welcome you 🧡✨

A little update ….. if you were planning to join us for our exclusive FlourishHer & CHALK evening on 19 August.

☀️August has turned out to be a busy month for many of us, holidays, full diaries and some much needed time out.

I’ve also had an unexpected thyroid operation this month and, although I’m recovering well, my energy is radiating a little lower than usual. Taking some of my own Flourish guidance, I’m listening to my body and giving myself the space I need to recover 🧡

With that in mind, the wonderful CHALK team and I have decided to postpone our evening until towards the end of September.

And there is a lovely upside to waiting a little longer…

September brings a new season and the opportunity to discover even more of CHALK’s gorgeous Autumn/Winter collection.

I’m really looking forward to bringing us together for what I know will be a very special evening.

New date and booking information will follow shortly.

Love
Michelle ✨.

✨ Even the brightest lanterns need tending ✨
We spend so much of our life lighting the way for everyone else.
September is your gentle invitation to pause... and gently light your own.
Not because you're broken.
Not because you've lost yourself.
But because your light matters too 💛.
At our next FlourishHer evening, I'll be sharing ‘The Flourisher's Way’ philosophy that underpins everything I do, from FlourishHer to my one-to-one coaching.
Together we'll create the space for uplifting conversations and illuminating connecting... each leaving with one ever so gentle promise to ourselves.
I'd love you to join us.

✨ Welcome Home ✨

The summer can be wonderful...
Full of family, holidays, laughter, making memories and looking after everyone else.
But somewhere amongst all of that, it’s easy to become just a little quieter ourselves, not lost, just a touch quieter.
September always feels like a gentle invitation to pause, take a breath and come home to ourselves again.
At our next FlourishHer evening, I’ll be sharing something I’ve been gently developing over the past 2 years…
The Flourisher Way
The philosophy that underpins everything I do, from our FlourishHer evenings, to my keynote talks, to my one-to-one coaching.
Together, we’ll explore four simple practices that can help us navigate midlife with greater awareness, self-compassion and confidence:
💛Reconnect
🌼Reframe
☀️Nurture
✨ Shine
There’ll be space to reflect, meaningful conversations, gentle coaching, and the warmth and connection that makes FlourishHer feel so, well flourishing 😊.
If you’ve been longing for an evening that’s less about doing... and more about simply being...
I’d love to welcome you along:

If someone had told me a few years ago that I'd be modelling for a clothing brand in my 50s, I honestly wouldn't have believed them.
When the amazing team at Chalk first asked me, I felt flattered... but were they sure?
But as I got to know the women behind the business, I realised this was about so much more than clothes.
It was about celebrating real women.
As I approached 50, I became more aware of the conversations so many women were having. Feeling overlooked, irrelevant and feeling like the were becoming less visible. Research reflects this too, but hearing it from women in our own community made it feel very real.
It made me stop and think.
How could I encourage other women to step into the light if I wasn't willing to do the same?
So I said yes ✨
Not because I saw myself as a model, but because I wanted to be part of something that celebrates women exactly as they are.
Every photoshoot has stretched me just a little... and with each one, my confidence has quietly grown.
That's one of the reasons I'm so excited to be collaborating with Chalk on 19 August at their Chalk-on-sea Store in Westgate.
It’s not just about fashion.
It’s about women coming together, supporting one another, and remembering that every one of us deserves to feel seen.
I'd love you to join us.
With love,
Michelle 🧡✨
