Words saying Our Table in pink underlined in yellow with yellow words It’s where you belong underneath

There's something about the energy of a room full of supportive women that's hard to put into words. And we should know, because we’ve been getting together with amazing women once a month, every month for 3 1/2 years. The closest we can get to describing it is that it feels like a sense of belonging - a warmth and honesty that comes from feeling genuinely welcomed and uplifted by inspiring women. We love that feeling. And we always feel a little sad walking away from our Breakfast Conversations knowing we need to wait a full month for the next one. 

For that reason, we’ve known for a long time that we wanted to build something for the women who want to go deeper than we can in our monthly Breakfast Conversations. Bigger conversations. Closer friendships. More joy, more often, and more support to lean on when life gets hard.

 

​It's not a networking group (although you will undoubtedly make incredible connections for business and for life).

 

It’s not a course (although we absolutely know that you are going to learn more in this year than in any half finished online course you’ve ever signed up to!).

 

It’s certainly not another thing to squeeze into an already-full life.

 

It's a year-long community for women who believe life is richer when it's shared - a curated community that meets, walks, talks and grows together, with intention, for twelve months.

Why Our Table exists

 

We believe strong communities don't happen by accident. They're built - deliberately and patiently - when people show up for one another again and again. When people share experiences and values. When people make time when it would be easier not to. When people create space for authentic conversations that actually matter.

That's the whole idea behind Our Table. Everything we do together over the year is shaped around four pillars:

  • Connection to Self — time to reflect, to understand ourselves better and to grow into the very best version of ourselves. 

  • Connection to Our Inner Circle — genuine friendships, built on honesty and shared experience as well as the kind of joyful living that impacts our relationships at home too. 

  • Connection to Community — connecting with our wider community, finding purpose, investing in the place we live, and championing the people and businesses around us.

  • Connection to Nature — finding the power that comes from being outdoors, and noticing the world around you.

Over twelve months, these four threads run through everything - the gatherings, the shared meals, the workshops, the walks, the conversations. We genuinely believe that when we connect with each of these four pillars in our lives, we can all live in a way that feels intentional, joyful and full of belonging. 

Who is it for?

 

Our Table is for women who are ready to go deeper than a once-a-month conversation.

You might be the only woman in your workplace, quietly craving a bit of peer support. You might be building a business on your own - brilliant at what you do, but without anyone to grab a coffee with who gets it. You might have just moved to the area, or moved through a big life shift - a career change, a new baby, a retirement, a child leaving for university - and found that your usual circle of connection doesn't quite reach here, or doesn't quite fit anymore.

Maybe you're an introvert who finds one-off networking exhausting, and what you actually want is time - the kind of regular, unhurried rhythm that lets real friendship grow, rather than another business card in a drawer.

Or maybe you've been to a Breakfast Conversation, felt that spark, and simply want more of it: more depth, more regularity, more room to both be supported and to support others. You don't need to know anyone; most women arrive without knowing anyone else in the room - by the end of the year we know that it will be a room full of your inner circle. 

Whatever brought you here, Our Table is for women who want to be known - not just networked with. Women who want to show up as they are, contribute what they have, and spend a year growing alongside a small group of people who will actually notice if you're not in the room.

Your Year at Our Table

We have carefully put together a programme that allows regular connection in different contexts throughout the year. Sometimes in a more formal context in our workshops, somethings with gently led conversation at our lunches and sometimes a completely informal, unstructured walk or social. We know that life is busy and not everyone will be able to make everything. We see the lunches as being at the heart of the programme and encourage you to attend as many as possible. The other elements may differ for each person and we anticipate that some people will struggle to make these on a regular basis and others may never miss one. It will just depend on the specific rhythm of your life. 

12 lunches. A monthly gathering to break bread together. Good food, honest conversation, and the kind of company that makes a Wednesday afternoon feel like exactly where you're meant to be.

24 walks. Fortnightly, side by side, out in the open — one morning and one evening walk each month, so there's a rhythm that works whatever your week looks like. Some of the best conversations happen when you're moving and connected with nature.

6 workshops. A curated series across the year, led by Harriet, Erin and guest experts in mindset, business and life. Practical, thought-provoking, and designed to stretch you in the best way.

4 socials. Lighter, looser evenings scattered through the seasons - time to celebrate, to laugh, and to simply enjoy the women around you.

Ongoing support. A private space within Good Company (our online community) to share, ask, celebrate and show up for one another between gatherings. Your people, any time you need them.

Priority access to our Breakfast Conversations and socials throughout the year, plus preferential rates for one-to-one coaching with Harriet or Erin.

What people said about our launch lunch

“It was really lovely to connect with different people and I thought the group's energy and enthusiasm was clear to see. The lunch was delicious and it felt especially spoiling to be in such a beautiful venue.”

 

Why should I join Our Table? 

The hardest thing when we're talking about Our Table is trying to distill what it is into just a few lines. Because, in reality, the reasons to join are almost endless but here are just a few. Our Table offers you: 

  • A trusted sounding board for decisions - a small group of women you can genuinely ask for advice, feedback or a reality check, in business or in life

  • Real business opportunities -  we're not a networking group really but there's a reason that businesses focus so much on 'know, like, trust' and it's because it works. So expect referrals, collaborations, introductions and partnerships that naturally emerge from spending real time with other capable women. 

  • Accountability that actually works -  people who know your goals well enough to check in on them, celebrate progress and gently push you when you stall

  • Exposure to perspectives you wouldn't otherwise hear — a genuinely mixed room is inspiring, it broadens how you think and problem-solve, well beyond your usual circle

  • Consistency that builds real intimacy - seeing the same faces across a year (not a rotating cast) means relationships can go somewhere, rather than resetting every event

  • A measurable confidence lift — regular practice being seen, heard and occasionally stretched (speaking up, hosting, trying something new) in a low-stakes, supportive room

  • Wellbeing benefits that are well evidenced - strong social connection is consistently linked to lower stress and better long-term mental and physical health; this gives you a structural way to protect that, rather than leaving it to chance

  • A place to be vulnerable safely - the kind of honest, unfiltered conversation that's hard to get in a workplace or even among old friends who've known you a long time

  • A way to build a joyful life - in reality this is all about living life joyfully. Not in a hedonistic way but in a way that feels deep, purposeful and real. We know that Our Table has all the ingredients needed to build a really joyful life. 

The investment

Membership is £230 per month, payable upfront for the year or in monthly instalments - whichever works best for you. There are no hidden costs - the price gets you access to all elements of the community. The only parts that are paid for separately are the Breakfast Conversations if you choose to join them and any additional one to one coaching that you choose to do with either Harriet or Erin. 

 

Places at Our Table are strictly limited, so that the community stays exactly that - a community, not a crowd.
