Rekindle the joy in work.
The fashion industry is characterised by burnout...
Long hours, ambitious targets, ever-expanding job roles, climate anxiety, looming regulations and dwindling resources.
More than half of workers in the UK feel that jobs are getting more demanding1, and 51% of long term sick leave is due to stress, depression or anxiety2.

The good news is that
happiness
is a skill we can learn.

![I first met @stella_hertantyo when I gave a talk to the @consciousfashion community about my work in fashion and wellbeing.
Later, I invited Stella to join my Happiness Course.
Based on feedback I collect from clients, I’ve created this space, Happy Talk, a weekly moment to pause, recharge, and stay accountable for your own happiness.
Stella shared:
“This work is the gift that keeps on giving. Roxanne is the perfect guide to help you return to yourself.”
Happy Talk is a warm, welcoming space to practice science backed practices and build positive habits including mindfulness, journaling, breathwork, and gentle movement.
Who is it for:
Those curious about building resilience and joy and looking for an end of week reset, and always open to all Course alumni wanting to refresh their practice
📅 When: Fridays at 1pm, starting Nov 7
💻 Where: Online

![I first met @emilyfurnishingfutures years ago and was hugely impressed by her work as an interior designer.
Even more, I admire her dedication as a social worker and her passion for combining the two to create Furnishing Futures, a
charity transforming empty, neglected houses into safe, healing homes for survivors of domestic abuse.
I’m honoured to be leading a Self-Compassion Workshop this November in the @atrium.london , with all proceeds supporting Emily and her team’s vital work.
Creating Space for Kindness — A Self-Compassion Workshop
Date: 6th November | Location: Atrium
We’ll explore self-compassion through mindfulness, gentle movement, journaling, and reflection.
All proceeds go to @furnishingfutures , helping turn houses into homes filled with hope.
Please join us, experience something gorgeous for yourself, and help give back to this incredible organisation to support their important work.
