MEMBERSHIP COMMUNITY
The RISE Circle:
Work & Health
For business professionals navigating work and health after injury or illness.
Why join the Rise Circle?
You've made it through the hardest part.
The diagnosis. The treatment.
The initial recovery. The return.
But you are doing it alone.
£50/month and you can cancel any time.
Membership is subject to a short suitability check.
There's no one in your immediate circle who truly understands the daily calculations. The energy management. The invisible decisions. The effort of maintaining a business or a career while quietly managing something significant that most people around you will never fully see.
You've become very good at adapting. Very good at making it look fine.
And it's exhausting in a way that's almost impossible to explain.
What if you didn't have to keep doing it that way?
RISE is not a support group.
It's not a generic business community.
It's not another space where you have to explain your situation from scratch before anyone understands what you're talking about.
It's a room, a real one, even if it's virtual, where everyone already gets it.
Where you can say "this week has been hard and here's why" and be met with genuine understanding.
Where someone else's experience becomes a torch that helps you find your own way a little more clearly.
Where the invisible load gets a little lighter, simply because you're not carrying it entirely alone.
That's what The RISE Circle is.

Is This For You?
It is if:
You're a business owner, leader, or professional who has experienced serious illness or injury and is navigating the long-term reality of managing your health alongside your work.
You've returned to work, or you're in the process of doing so, but something still feels unsettled. Unsustainable. Like you're running a system that wasn't designed for the person you are now.
You're tired of generic advice that doesn't account for your situation.
You want honest, practical, human support from people who understand it from the inside.
You're ready to stop doing quite so much of this alone.
If you've been reading this and recognising yourself, this is your moment.

a note from heather
After my stroke and cancer diagnosis, I struggled to cope.
I had the professional knowledge, 30 years in occupational health and vocational rehabilitation. I knew, intellectually, what recovery should look like. And yet I still found myself white-knuckling my way through weeks that cost far more than they should have, because I had no one around me who understood the specific combination of things I was navigating.
The health side and the professional side.
The identity loss and the income pressure.
The grief for who I used to be alongside the work of building something new.
What I needed, and what I have now founded, was community with people who were living the same experience, even if the health condition was not the same.
The RISE Circle is what I wish had existed for me.
I've built it for you.
