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.
