Hands up: who else completely fell for the Singing

Hands up: who else completely fell for the Singing Waiters sneaky entrance into the Women In Recycling Conference afterparty?⁠
⁠
From the moment they stumbled loudly into the room to the moment they left, they really raised the roof and got us all up dancing!⁠

At the Women in Recycling Conference, Amy Bird del

At the Women in Recycling Conference, Amy Bird delivered an absolutely inspiring and empowering speech—one that left us all feeling ready to take on the world!⁠
⁠
She tackled imposter syndrome head-on, sharing the practical tools she uses to quiet that nagging self-doubt—including naming her inner voice Brenda and telling her to sit down! 😂👏 ⁠
⁠
It was a refreshing and relatable take on a struggle so many of us face, and a powerful reminder that we are more capable than we sometimes allow ourselves to believe.⁠
⁠
But Amy didn’t stop there. She also opened up about the toughest business challenge she’s ever faced—a moment that nearly ruined her. ⁠
⁠
Instead of giving in, she found the strength, resilience, and determination to turn things around, rebuild from the ground up, and grow her business stronger than ever before. ⁠
⁠
Her journey was a testament to the power of persistence, adaptability, and sheer grit.⁠
⁠
💚 Thank you, Amy, for sharing your wisdom, your humour, and your unwavering belief that we can all silence our inner Brendas and succeed on our own terms!⁠

We’re still laughing from Samantha Baines’ inc

We’re still laughing from Samantha Baines’ incredible set at the Women in Recycling Conference – and if you were there, you know exactly why! ⁠
⁠
From sharing her experiences as a deaf woman to the unforgettable (and absolutely hilarious) story about having a poo in Channing Tatum’s house, she had the entire room in stitches.⁠
⁠
Not only did Samantha bring the laughs, but she also reminded us of the power of storytelling, representation, and embracing who we are—challenges, embarrassing moments, and all! ⁠
⁠
Her set was the perfect mix of comedy, inclusivity, and honesty, and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate the amazing women in our industry.⁠
⁠
Thank you, Samantha, for bringing so much joy to the event! 💚 If you haven’t already, make sure to check out her work—she’s an absolute star.⁠

At the Women in Recycling Conference, we were deep

At the Women in Recycling Conference, we were deeply moved by Nicole Procter’s powerful and personal speech. ⁠
⁠
She didn’t just share her story—she owned it, reminding us all that where we come from does not define where we are going.⁠
⁠
Nicole bravely spoke about her difficult upbringing, the immense courage it took to break free, and the relentless hard work she poured into transforming her life. ⁠
⁠
Her journey is a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of rewriting your own narrative—no matter how tough the beginning may have been.⁠
⁠
Her words left the room in awe and admiration. ⁠
⁠
She proved that adversity can be a stepping stone, not a roadblock, and that with grit, self-belief, and perseverance, we can shape our futures on our own terms.⁠
⁠
💚 Thank you, Nicole, for your strength, honesty, and for inspiring so many of us with your story. ⁠
⁠
Your journey is proof that no challenge is insurmountable when faced with courage and conviction.⁠
