You never feel like there is a question you can't ask, cos the lasses just want to help each other. I have made new friends! I have had jeans sent to me from all over the place! And in a year when I haven't pushed myself (health reasons as well as an understanding that my products are not essentials in the current climate) I have still had a brilliant year thanks to the Lasses of the Loungeroonie!"
"The Next Level Lounge is such an amazing resource. There’s great courses of training all in one place, broken down into easy to follow chunks with actionable take always. But it’s much more than that. The Facebook group is a lovely space with weekly live training which is always juicy and I love the motivation stations, it makes a huge difference scheduling that in so you know you’re going to get stuff done.
Hands down the best value for money I’ve spent on my businesses!"
