Franchise Spotlight Conversations is a short online chat with Katie Stickley from Those Who Can and a Franchise we work closely with.
It’s a great opportunity to hear directly from the Franchisor about what they love about the business they created.
It’s also a chance for you, the teacher, to get a feel for the franchise, is it a good fit for you, do you want to know more?
In this episode, Katie chats with Tessa Hawes Founder of MiniMe Mindfulness to find out about how the idea for the business started as a practical solution for a global pandemic and how Tessa’s 8-year-old son was instrumental in the early days via a Facebook group.
Tessa discusses her franchise model and her ability to support you via with flexible approach to suit your lifestyle and the potential to earn a great income.
About MiniMe Mindfulness
We invite all children to onboard positive mindfulness and mindset ‘superpowers’ to feel more love, happiness, resilience, internal calm, focus and confidence.
Which can help to reduce stress and anxiety.
We have so many internal superpowers – we just need to know what they are and how to use them in order to live fully and lead a meaningful life being happy and thriving here and now.
We teach positive mindfulness and mindset techniques in a fun and innovative way. We are extremely proud of the results that the children, working with our online programmes or award-winning Mindset Mentors, are experiencing and enjoying as a result.
Those Who Can – Thoughts
I know a conversation with Tessa is always going to be high energy and I will smile a lot! This Franchise Spotlight Conversation was no exception. You can’t help but admire the strength of Tessa’s convictions and everything she does comes from a good place, a place that nurtures and supports individuals to help them flourish.
I know many teachers have aspirations outside of the classroom and taking on a MiniMe Mindfulness franchise could be a perfect fit for those who still enjoy working with students in a positive way but are ready for the challenge of running their own business. A MiniMe Mindfulness business can be run as either full-time or part-time, meaning that you could continue teaching a few days a week while you get established.
One of the real strengths of working with Tessa is that she is a franchisor, franchisee and highly experienced business coach. Therefore, Tessa has the confidence as well as the ability to guide and train you through the initial stages of the business, so you build a business that really works for you. This is a highly personalised approach and very refreshing to hear.
MiniMe Mindfulness sessions are delivered directly into schools and nurseries, via before and after-school clubs as well as during lesson time. This means your weekend is free, especially as Tessa has over 2 years of ready-made lesson plans!
Tessa used the phrase ‘You are the author of your own story’, this really resonates with me as I know teachers dedicate huge amounts of time to investing in other people’s growth, whether that’s their students, colleagues, wider community or family. Perhaps, now is the time for you to change your story.
Do watch this video and get in contact with Tessa if you feel MiniMe Mindfulness is a good balance of teaching and running a business and you can see yourself thriving with Tessa and the team.
