“Women understand women. We have all heard about Mars and Venus, and the world not wholly acknowledging the ongoing battle for equality recognition. Yet, in this complex labyrinth, most women stand together, resilient, understanding and supportive of each other. Nurture these connections – they are your haven, your cheer leaders, your confidantes. Women, stand strong and reach out to one another.”
“We are meant to journey together.” Libbla
The Backstory
From a very loving upbringing, Libbla worked with young people, she nannied, recruited and developed New Look staff, worked in a management consultancy and as a hobby specialised as a personal trainer in core strength, balance, stretching, and breath. She decided to enrich the lives of her growing group of 14 godchildren, nieces and nephews and those she had nannied for by writing a journal about the importance of true Values for Life. To help enhance their Wellbeing – “Wisdom While You Work” soon found its way into schools, becoming a beloved PSHE resource and endorsed by IAPS.
Delving Deeper into Positive Psychology
In 2016, Libbla decided she needed to change and entered into a new phase of personal and educational growth, undertaking an incredible course – Foundations of Positive Psychology with the University of Pennsylvania. Written and certified by the “Father of Positivity” Prof. Martin Seligman, it included sessions and mentorship from world-renowned psychologists like Angela Duckworth, Karen Reivich and James Pawlowski. This underpinned her desire to foster character strengths and positive interventions in others, particularly women in Midlife.
This transformative journey inspired Libbla to pivot her career and step into the Wellbeing Sector, fuelled by the compelling desire to share her newfound knowledge and experiences with other women. She introduced a progamme aimed at mentoring midlife women, concentrating on self-awareness and positivity, change and belief in themselves. Libbla’s style is knowledgeable, positive, strong, warm and inspiring, empowering women with new found strength.
Wise Women.
A midlife woman is a powerfully unique being, an ever-changing confluence of wisdom, challenges and inner strength. Libbla understands these intricate layers and unique challenges that women encounter at midlife; menopause, anxiety, mood swings, brain fog, over-coping, losing yourself, weight gain, empty nests, the loss of relationships and the stress and grief associated with the ageing and passing of parents, relatives, and friends, young and older. She knows first-hand the fear and self-doubt these experiences can brew inside us.
