S AND CHARITABLE CAUSES
The
Lady
Garden
foundation helps to raise
funds for gynaecological
health, to help drastically
reduce the diagnosis and
devastating outcomes. If
you are not aware, there are
5 types of gynaecological
cancers; Ovarian, Cervical,
Uterine, Vulval and Vaginal.
They are often referred to
as the silent killers, not only
because of their complicated
symptoms which can be
missed
by
healthcare
professionals,
but
also
due to a lack of awareness
surrounding the disease.
Ladies, if you are due a
check-up then please get this
booked asap. Equally, if you
feel as though something is
not right then get it checked
out, it could save your life.
It has been a busy month
in the Atkins household.
The charity event had to
be my highlight, as well
as my interview with The
Honourable Isobel Kershaw,
who is Co-Founder and
Director of The London
Finishing Academy. I thought
I would write up my interview
in a Q and A style so you
can read more about their
upcoming courses, which
are truly a once in a lifetime
experience.
If I was stuck in an
elevator with you and was
to ask you, ‘What is the
London Finishing Academy?’ what would you say?
It is an immersive experience for the mind body
and soul, and for people who want to elevate their lives
through the art of self-development.
Who can attend?
Anyone from all walks of life! Someone who feels that
they want to have the confidence to rethink their lives
moving forward. For example, a bride who is looking for
a special experience. Somebody who is changing jobs
looking to feel more confident going into a new network
environment or feel confident when they are fine dining
when client facing. Or perhaps someone who has gone
through a personal challenge such as divorce.
The words ‘Finishing’ and ‘Academy’ could be
confused with someone who is at school age, but it’s
not that is it?
No, we wanted to veer away from calling it a school
because we don’t want people to feel like they are coming
to a classroom. It’s an immersive environment where you
will feel like a guest from the moment you arrive. It’s a
different way of learning and practising certain skills in a
more sophisticated, practical, yet modern way. You will
then have those skills for life.
What are the benefits of attending this course?
It’s completely unique in every way. From the moment
you arrive all five senses will be opened up. From the
beautiful visuals of the room, the smell of the scented
candles, to the taste of the exquisite food! You will be
learning those social skills which will therefore give you
more confidence.
We will make sure that we understand each individuals
personal goals so it’s very much a tailored experience,
rather than learning it in a formulaic fashion. Each expert
speaker will provide you with a wealth of knowledge in
