The Allowed to be ME Challenge
a free three day challenge for women in education

You give so much of yourself to your school.
​
Supporting. Solving. Reassuring. Holding things together.​​
If this is you...
You know things need to change, but
you don’t know where to start.
This half term, give a little back to you, and return to work
feeling more empowered.
Join our free 3-Day Challenge.
Live on Zoom. 45 minutes a day.
Three short sessions to pause, reflect and reconnect with what you need

Women in education are quietly burning out.
Not because they can’t cope, but because they’ve been coping for too long.
Three days won’t change everything.
​
They can give you a pause, a little clarity and a first
glimpse of yourself again.​
​
That’s often where it begins.
Join us this half-term for our
FREE 3‑day challenge ​
​and start transforming your wellbeing, your boundaries, and your life.

or
day 1
Naming What You Carry
Identifying the invisible load carried by women in education, whatever their role.
day 2
Cost of holding it together
We help each woman see, clearly and compassionately, what constantly holding things together has cost her.
day 3
A Glimpse of ‘being allowed’.
Helping women in education experience what it feels like to choose themselves, even in a small way.

What happens each day?
three sessions, one gentle shift
Somewhere between being needed and getting everything done, you slipped off your own list.
​
You know how to cope. To solve. To support. To keep things moving.
​
But the woman behind the lanyard
has become quieter.
You spend so much time conforming to all the red tape, you feel taken for granted and not heard.
The holidays arrive and it takes days to stop running by which time, you have to go back to work!
And sometimes you wonder: who am I when I’m not being everything everyone needs me to be?

a little gift from us when you join
As soon as you sign up, we'll send you your 'Half Term Reset' booklet. A little gift created especially for challenge participants. It's designed to give a gentle check in with yourself. You'll begin to notice what's energising you, what's weighing you down, and what might need a little more attention right now. By the time the challenge starts, you'll already have begun your reset.
Your Hosts
Hi, we are Nikki & Catherine, qualified coaches, educationalists, mums and business partners. We can't wait to meet you at our Half Term Reset
Nikki Hudson
I've spent years being calm in other people's storms - as an exam manager, a listener, and now as an Impact Coach.
I understand the exhaustion of always being the one who holds it together, the disorientation of losing yourself, and the quiet courage it takes to find your way back.

Catherine Batt
I’ve spent decades guiding, supporting, and holding space for others - as a teacher, a leader, and now as a coach.
My work is rooted in warmth, steadiness, and deep emotional safety. I don’t believe in fixing women. I believe in helping them hear themselves again.
