EMPOWER, created by Hannah Kay, began as a supportive community for women, offering a 6-month Private Programme designed to promote self-love, confidence, and personal growth. This programme incorporated elements like journaling, meditation, movement, and breathwork, creating a space where participants could explore topics such as identity, resilience, and self-worth in small, intimate groups. Alongside this, EMPOWER also hosted events like day retreats and open sessions to make its ethos accessible to a wider audience.
Looking ahead to 2025, EMPOWER aims to expand its reach by transitioning from the original programme format into multiple small-scale events. These events will provide opportunities for more women to experience the transformative and empowering ethos of EMPOWER, making it inclusive and accessible to a broader community.

Over the course of 6 months, you cover a wide array of different elements such as journaling, breathwork, meditation and movement, all with the aim of self-development aligning with the values of EMPOWER. This programme is a smaller tight knit setting, with maximum of 10 people per intake, making it exclusive and tailored to the members of that group.
THIS IS CURRENTLY ON PAUSE - PENDING REDESIGN OF THE PROGRAMME IN LATE 2025.
