📌 The Agenda: Everyone is talking about the Autumn Reset


Everyone's talking about:

The autumn reset — how to finish the year strong

The shift from September into October always feels like a second “new year.” As the final quarter begins, it’s a natural moment to rethink routines, refresh habits, and set yourself up to finish the year strong.

But it can also bring pressure - the feeling that we should dust off our January goals and rush to get them all done at once. Instead of trying to do it all, ask yourself these questions and use the answers to create a realistic, smaller list of goals you can actually achieve:

  • Which of my original goals still matter to me?
  • What can realistically be achieved in the next three months?
  • What would finishing the year strong look like?

💷 FINANCES Same job, same pay? Not quite. Women often retire with far less wealth than men. Here’s why it happens (and what to do about it).

🔁 HABITS Struggling to maintain your habits? Try habit stacking, where you tack a new habit onto one you already do, making it easier to move straight onto the next one. James Clear swears by it, and his breakdown makes it feel almost too easy.

💼 CAREERS Forget “quiet quitting”, should we instead be “quiet thriving”? This concept suggests small shifts (like taking breaks you actually enjoy, or personalising your workspace) to make your 9-to-5 more bearable.

⏰ PRODUCTIVITY “Bare Minimum Mondays” is a productivity trend that claims to help you set the week up without burnout. The debate: Is it genius or just procrastination in disguise?

🧘‍♀️ WELLNESS If your nightly routine = endless scrolling, try a “digital sundown.” Power down 30 minutes before bed and swap Instagram for a paperback. Stuck on what to read? Start here with 23 books you will cancel plans to finish.

How I Increased My Salary by 75% in 2.5 Years (Here's What Worked) Between 2021 and 2024, I increased my salary by 75%. Not through job hopping, but by positioning myself for these increases within the same company. I'm sharing this because too many women accept whatever pay rise they're offered and assume hard work alone will get them fairly compensated. It won't. After a decade in banking, never negotiating, I realised I was significantly underpaid. When I joined an e-commerce brand as COO,...

Your Network Doesn't Have to Go Quiet In The Final Months Of The Year It's already happening. People are protecting their calendars and pushing meetings into January so they can focus on wrapping up end-of-year projects and hit their targets. But with two months left in 2025, you don't want to go quiet on your network and start from scratch in January when everyone's inbox is flooded with "Happy New Year, let's catch up!" messages. The challenge? Staying visible without being pushy. This time...
