Jacquie Lawes
The Soul-Led Brand & Empowerment Mentor
I empower ambitious, impact-driven women to step confidently into the spotlight (in their business & life) so they naturally attract the clients and opportunities aligned with their next level.
With 20 years in brand content, premium positioning and marketing, 7 of those specialising in personal brand elevation, I blend strategy, visibility, energetics and embodiment to help you build a business that feels as good as in your body as it looks on paper.
Marcela Heime
Founder of CSR With Purpose
I’m the founder of CSR With Purpose, helping employers turn good intentions into measurable social value by designing CSR, wellbeing, and social-value strategies that benefit people, brands, and bids.
I have worked alongside charities commissioned by the NHS, public health, and local councils for over 15 years, producing programmes that tackle health and social inequalities. I have a deep understanding of the barriers faced by those affected most by inequality and expertise in co-production with disadvantaged communities.
My background spans charity leadership, public health commissioning, and community engagement. As a trustee of The Clare Foundation and Health & wellbeing Ambassador for Heart of Bucks, I champion authentic CSR – strategy with purpose, not one-off donations.
Jo Powell
Independent Travel Agent
I’m an independent travel agent providing tailored travel solutions for both leisure and corporate clients, with access to a wide range of products and destinations.
My life in travel began over 30 years ago as a chalet girl in the French Alps and I’ve been passionate about travel ever since! I’ve worked for major tour operators both in the UK and overseas, progressing from reservations consultant to director. Over the years, I’ve handled just about anything the industry can throw at you – from ash clouds and airline failures to the pandemic.
Eight years ago, I took the leap and started my own travel business and it’s been an incredible journey! Whether you’re planning a quick break or once in a lifetime adventure, I’m here to make it happen. I create personalised travel experiences built around your needs.
