A review by Lauren Akhurst
I recently had the pleasure of attending a Vision Board Workshop hosted by Emma Headland Coaching, at Nene Valley Community Center. Having never created a vision board before, I was grateful for Emma’s advice beforehand, prompting us to bring any images or photographs along that we might like to use. So, I headed to the self-serve photobooth and got some photos printed for the workshop.
Upon arrival, I was grateful to see a room full of warm, friendly faces as Emma greeted me with open arms. Don’t you just love when a workshop starts with a good hug? I immediately felt safe, comfortable and excited. I settled down with a cup of tea and some cake as I got to know some of the wonderful women around me.
“Connecting with like-minded women in a safe and creative space is something that is nourishing in a way that has to be experienced to truly be understood.”
Emma guided us through various exercises, helping us reflect on different areas of our lives, from career and relationships to wellness and adventure – before encouraging us to identify what truly resonated with us. This process alone helped me to fine-tune my goals whilst stripping away the noise of what I thought I should want and focus on what I truly desire. During this mind-mapping stage it was clear to me that self-care was at the core of all my goals. This took me by surprise, but I was grateful for Emma’s expert guidance that led to this epiphany.
“Creating the vision board itself was an incredibly powerful act of manifestation.”
As I carefully arranged images, words and affirmations that represented my goals and dreams onto my board, it felt like a tangible declaration of intent, an affirmation of the life I want to create. Seeing the finished piece gave me a sense of accomplishment and curiosity. I felt empowered to start moving towards these newly visualised goals.
Since the workshop, I’ve found that I have a clearer sense of direction, and I feel more connected to my long-term vision. It's more than simply having a beautiful vision board on my wall, it’s a reminder to actively work towards what I visualise every single day. The workshop really helped me to align my mindset and energy with my goals, making them feel more achievable.
Overall, I walked away feeling empowered and excited about the future. I highly recommend Emma’s Vision Board Workshop to anyone feeling stuck or unclear about their goals or simply wanting support and guidance in a safe space to manifest their ideas into something tangible. It’s a wonderful way to tap into your dreams and start taking inspired action toward them.
