Essential Woman is a curated community for mums who are intentionally putting themselves first again. Through beautifully designed, small-group experiences across London, Birmingham and Nottingham, we create space for connection, confidence and real friendships beyond motherhood.
Manchester Goal Setting Brunch
A festive brunch to celebrate your year, and dream up the next one.
Manchester Brunch - Goals, Growth & Gratitude
This isn’t just brunch. It’s your afternoon to get dressed up, get into Manchester, and be around women who just get it.
The year’s nearly done, so we’re doing it properly, fizz, food, big laughs, and a feel-good moment to toast how far you’ve come and dream up what you’re calling in for the new year.
Think less “serious goal-setting,” more best-friend energy with a glass in hand, talking about everything you want next.
No awkward small talk here, just brilliant conversations and one of those afternoons you’ll be buzzing about for days.

Coming Alone? Read This.
Most women come solo.
And that’s exactly why this exists.

you’ll walk into a space where women are open, welcoming, and ready to connect.
