Rifa on the road! Bold talks and more

It’s been a vibrant season of sharing ideas, holding space, and speaking at some incredible events. Here’s a quick round-up of where I’ve been (and where I’ll be next!):

🌟 Evolve25 – Silicon Brighton
Last Friday, I had so much fun on the Innovators Stage at Evolve25, discussing NextGen Tech with Mila Brazzi, Tim Rowkins (Deputy Head of BHCC) and thought leaders Mariam Crichton, and Danny Maddock. It was one of those conversations that really sparked something. I’ve heard from so many of you how bold, honest, and energising the session felt. Huge thanks to the Silicon Brighton team for an excellent event.

🧘🏾‍♀️ Brighton Wellness Festival
I had a joyful moment of reconnection when I spoke about community and remembered I’ve been a yoga, meditation, and Reiki teacher since 2001! Wellness continues to be a huge part of my life and coaching work and it was so special to reflect on that journey with others in the room.

🌱 SELF Festival 2025 – Goldsmiths, University of London
Today, I led a session at the Sustainable Enterprise London Festival on coaching, clarity, and creative growth. We dove into leadership, wellbeing and the creative journey — all in one power-packed hour. It was so inspiring to talk to students and staff on the Media course.

✍🏽 New Writing South – Wellbeing for Writers
On Monday 21 July, I’m thrilled to be speaking at Wellbeing for Writers, a nourishing event by New Writing South. If you’re a writer navigating creative blocks, burnout, or just in need of a reset, this session is for you. I’ll be sharing practical tools for sustaining your creative energy and looking after yourself while you do the work that matters. Tickets available via New Writing South.

✨ Wherever I go, I’m reminded how powerful it is when we show up with purpose, compassion, and vision. If you’ve been at one of my recent talks — thank you. If you’re coming to the next, I can’t wait to see you there.
Big love, Rifa x
