PawsTake a Paws

An hour a week
with three women who get it.

An hour on Zoom. You and three other mums in a small room, fifteen minutes each on the thing that matters to you. No pitching, no performing, no advice from someone trying to sell you something — just a proper conversation with women who get it.

01

You pick a session

Coffee, a question, or business. One hour, one small room, same time every week.

02

Four mums, one room

We put you in a breakout room with three other mums. Fifteen minutes each. No audience, no big group.

03

You leave with something

An answer, an idea, or a woman who has already been there. That is the whole point.

Five ways to take a Paws

From £2.50 a session. One hour. Fifteen minutes each.

Coffee Paws

Four mums, one coffee, one hour.

The easiest way in. No question needed, no prep, nothing to bring but a brew. You drop into a small room with three other mums and just talk — about the week, the school run, the thing nobody else finds funny. Most people say the hour goes too fast.

Ask Paws

One question. Three minds on it.

You've been turning something over for weeks. Bring that one thing — sleep, school, SEND, going back to work, a friendship that's gone strange — and put it to three mums who have been there. You'll tell us what it is when you book, so the room is ready for you.

Accountability Paws

No motivation? Borrow ours.

For getting healthy and losing weight when the motivation just isn't there. Turn up every week, talk to others on the same journey, and declare what you've lost — never what you weigh. Swap what's worked in the kitchen, how much you've moved, and what got in the way. Same hour, same women, every week.

Single Mums Paws

No partner to tag in.

For mums doing it on their own. An hour on Zoom with three other women who know exactly what that's like — no partner to tag in, no one to take over at bath time. Bring whatever's hard this week, or just listen in. No advice from anyone selling you something, and no being told you're inspiring for coping.

Business Paws

For mums who run something — or are starting to.

Whether you're three years in or still at the idea stage, bring the thing that's stuck. Pricing, getting the first customers, whether to say yes to that job, how to fit it round the school run. You'll be in a room with mums doing the same juggle — and no one will try to sell you anything.

Doing the accountability one?

Log your week and see how the room is getting on — who turned up, who shared something, who moved. It resets every Monday.

Set apart from the mums' sessions

Run an indoor play centre?

Indoor Play Paws is for the people who run the centres, not the mums who visit them. Same hour, same small rooms, fifteen minutes each — but everyone in the room is an owner. It runs at 8pm UK time so the American owners can join in their afternoon.

Indoor Play Paws

For the people who run the play centres.

You run a soft play centre — or you are opening one — and the things that keep you up at night are the ones nobody outside the industry understands. Pricing, staffing, parties, capacity, the family who complains every single week. Bring one of those to a room of other owners and get three heads on it. Most of the room joins from America, so it runs at 8pm UK time — 3pm in New York, midday in Los Angeles.

The house rules

  • Be kind — everyone here is doing her best.
  • No selling and no pitching to each other.
  • What is shared in the room stays in the room.
  • This is lived experience, not professional medical or legal advice.
