Sadia from Slay Your Dragons will be hosting a Vision Boarding Workshop for Beyond the Mix. Over the past three years, Sadia has delivered small group coaching sessions for Beyond the Mix, encouraging participants to think about their stories, recognise their strengths and use both to advance their personal and professional lives.

The final group coaching session ends with a vision boarding exercise, which is always a firm favourite. We’re excited to host the vision boarding session. as a dedicated, standalone workshop in January - perfect for setting intentions and building momentum for 2026.

All materials and light refreshments will be provided.

@iiiindiiiii is hosting our second framing memories workshop. The last one was so lovely, we had a great time discussing our keepsakes, using the engraving tool to enhance our frames and connecting over our memories and heritages.

Indi will guide us through creative ways to bring our precious memories to life, while reflecting on how these objects connect us to our loved ones and personal histories.

All frames and backing fabrics will be provided, but please bring one or a few keepsakes you’d like to include in your frame. You’ll design a framed piece that feels deeply personal - something to display at home or gift to someone special.

This workshop will have a festive, Christmas inspired feel, perfect for creating a heartfelt gift for a friend or family member. We anticipate the workshop ending at approximately 6pm, so there is time for an optional drink afterwards until 6.30pm.

We have tiered donation options which hopefully suit everyone, but if you require a bursary space, please don't hesitate to contact us at hello@beyondthemix.org and we can sort one out, no questions asked.
