Join the Achieve Your Dreams Programme

This powerful, life-changing 13-part series began at 12pm EST/ 5pm GMT on Thursday, 15th January and will span the whole year to help you to set meaningful goals, stay accountable, and build momentum all year long! Beginning with three weekly foundation workshops on the Community Online Academy. These sessions guide you step-by-step through choosing your goals, clarifying your “why,” creating a SMART plan, and setting up habits that support long-term success. Jules blends clear, practical tools with evidence-based coaching techniques to help you take action and make your dreams feel achievable!

After the foundation phase of weekly sessions, we moved into monthly sessions at the end of each month that are designed to keep your progress on track and support you when life inevitably gets in the way. Each catch-up focuses on a different theme, helping you navigate pivots, handle pitfalls, build resilience, and celebrate meaningful wins.

If you miss a session they're all recorded and available on the Video Hub.

You can also join me live on the Community Online Academy every Thursday at 7am EST / 12pm GMT for my weekly Stretch & Reflect class full of movement, journaling and mindfulness.

This season is dedicated to helping you achieve your dreams in 2026 and acts as a companion to the live, online programme of the same name.

Join the Achieve Your Dreams Programme

This powerful, life-changing 13-part series began at 12pm EST/ 5pm GMT on Thursday, 15th January and will span the whole year to help you to set meaningful goals, stay accountable, and build momentum all year long! Beginning with three weekly foundation workshops on the Community Online Academy. These sessions guide you step-by-step through choosing your goals, clarifying your “why,” creating a SMART plan, and setting up habits that support long-term success. Jules blends clear, practical tools with evidence-based coaching techniques to help you take action and make your dreams feel achievable!

After the foundation phase of weekly sessions, we move into monthly sessions on the last Thursday of each month that are designed to keep your progress on track and support you when life inevitably gets in the way. Each catch-up focuses on a different theme, helping you navigate pivots, handle pitfalls, build resilience, and celebrate meaningful wins.

If you miss a session they're all recorded and available on the Video Hub.

You can also join me live on the Community Online Academy every Thursday at 7am EST / 12pm GMT for my weekly Stretch & Reflect class full of movement, journaling and mindfulness.

Dropping at 6am EST tomorrow, Thursday, 27th November you’ll find:

The Thanksgiving Pause - a short grounding moment to help you step out of the chaos and into calm with micro-gratitudes and a gentle reset before the day begins. 

If You’ve Had a Hard Year - a tender, compassionate meditation for anyone carrying heaviness into the holiday. If you’re tired, stretched, overwhelmed, or simply feeling tender… this one is for you. 

From Surviving to Savoring - a mindful morning ritual to help you slow down, sink in, and truly feel the beauty in the little things today.

Three episodes. Three energies. And you get to pick the one that meets you where you are… or listen to all three if you fancy a Thanksgiving buffet!

Welcome to Mindful Moments — a new season of shorter, more intentional episodes from the Mental Wealth podcast. These bite-sized episodes are designed to help you pause, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most.

This mindful moment episode is dedicated to my Dad, Steve Hobbs. At present, I'm raising funds to give him, and his wife, Jan, much-needed respite care. Steve sustained a life-changing spinal injury in 2022, and caring for him full-time has taken a toll on Jan’s health. Our goal is to fund at least two weeks in his preferred care home, giving them both time to rest and recharge.
