Just listening in my hospital bed and am inspired. Woke up at 5am this morning, scrolled on instagram for a while, then remembered Substack and thought I have the time to read what everyone is writing about and have been inspired so wrote a couple of notes (only a minute read) but it feels so good. Listening to this podcast I am inspired again, thank you! Not sure how I’ve done it mind but have two substacks, will see if I can merge but thank you so much to you both, met you Claire at Suzy’s Alnwick story fest last year following an invitation from the incredible Juliet Thomas
😲 when is that heart leap necklace coming back in stock?! I never treat myself to anything like that but that is one present to myself I’d really like💛
That’s the sign of a great conversation! Ps I loved what you were both saying about how having a subscriber list is akin to a business, a great reframe for my mind as I consider my next steps xx
Yesss I love that. It was amazing to hear how you think about it all and how life has changed since your time in London as editor, I could relate in some ways after many years in PR. It was wonderful to hear your zest for all you do and how the ideas are flowing, your new publication sounds very exciting xx
It's changed so much and it's been almost three years since I left London and arrived in Alnwick. My word this year was 'foundation' and that is what I'm building - strong foundations and I am loving my new build!
I love that, and the foundations are so important. I can feel parallels as I slowly emerge from the early years of mothering and hope to align myself/work/creativity with my mother role and life as it is now xx
This is such as inspiring conversation to listen to, your enthusiasm for writing, telling our stories and creating our own universe here on Substack is wonderful to hear and go off and do. Thank you both. Everything feels possible here on Substack and finding our own way forward.

Here you go, Chris Thank you Claire x
Thank you - I’m struggling with Tue and Thu as they are the only 2 days I go into my office, not sure how I can get round that in short term
The masterclasses are usually Wed at 1pm if that helps - the annual sub is worth just one class - so so good and you get the replays too.
✨🙏♥️
done
This was absolutely gorgeous — such a lovely, uplifting and nourishing chat. Thank you so much for sharing with us all, you are both so brilliant xx
So glad you got space to listen in Lyndsay - I love the chat too and re listening to it too actually. xx

Glad you enjoyed the chat. I definitely think of substack as my own little magazine and business. It excites my inner entrepreneur so much.
