Wine, Crisps & Burnout

For women running on empty. Two hours of laughter, honest conversations, burnout awareness and gentle somatic practices. Crisps, Wine & Burnout For women who are tired of running on empty. You’ve spent the day juggling responsibilities, making decisions, remembering everything and keeping life moving. Then finally, the evening arrives. The bra comes off. The crisps come out. The wine gets poured. And for a few precious moments, the world can wait. Sound familiar? Join Claire and Shalini for two hours of laughter, honest conversations and a refreshingly different exploration of the everyday pressures that leave so many women feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and running on empty. Blending burnout coaching, somatic psychotherapy, humour and lived experience, we’ll explore how prolonged stress affects our nervous system, why we sometimes miss the warning signs and how we can begin recognising when our bodies are asking for something different. What can you expect? • Plenty of those “Oh my God, that’s me!” moments. • An accessible look at what happens in your nervous system when stress builds. • An opportunity to recognise your own early warning signs of overwhelm. • Gentle, practical somatic techniques to experience and take into everyday life. • Laughter, connection and a few wonderfully uncomfortable truths. You’ll leave with a greater understanding of your own responses to stress and some simple ways to begin supporting yourself before exhaustion takes hold. Come for the laughs. Leave understanding yourself a little better. Sunday 6th December 2026 | 2-4pm Tickets: £34 | Just 12 places available, book early to avoid disappointment! A two-hour interactive small-group workshop combining relatable humour, personal reflection, accessible nervous system education and guided somatic experiences. Meet your facilitators Claire Trauma-Informed Burnout Coach | Clinical Hypnotherapist | Wellbeing Trainer Claire specialises in stress, anxiety and burnout. After more than 20 years working in the charity sector, including frontline services, project and team management, and training delivery, she experienced a significant period of burnout herself. That experience led her to make important changes and deepen her professional understanding of chronic stress, burnout prevention and recovery. Today she combines lived experience with coaching, hypnotherapy and wellbeing training to help people reduce overwhelm, rebuild confidence and develop sustainable ways of living and working. She also brings a warm sense of humour and her experience performing stand-up comedy.
