“I loved the Flying Solo I workshop with Gabriella, she is an extremely sensitive yet dynamic and motivational woman. I learned how the contraception I was using in my 20’s could have been suppressing my intuition and feelings, possibly leading to times of doubt and confusion. As young women, we are just often not given all the information and not told about the wisdom of our bodies and how we can use it to our advantage. What I took from the workshop was a new perspective on my cycle and a greater understanding of what is going on in my body and mind at various times. For example, at the time of writing this, I am in my ‘autumn’ phase (Gabriella compares each section of the cycle to a season, she told us that autumn is a time of introspection, letting go, having doubts as the inner critic can be strong at this time). This has been a revelation, because in my ‘spring’ season I made a pretty big/expensive decision about something and was positive and sure about it; however last week I started having doubts as my logical, rational side became stronger and questioned the choice! In the past I would have spiraled into negative thinking and doubt, but now I can be aware of this inner critic at this time of the cycle and instead choose to acknowledge it, thank it for its concern, but carry on with my choice anyway. How empowering! My heartfelt thanks go to Gabriella and I urge everyone who reads it who is menstruating to go on the course!”

“I learned so much in one day about my feminine cycle! I was so happy when my period came 3 weeks after the workshop! Why? Because I now know this time is sacred. I now see my cycle through a different perspective, not only on a biological level but also emotional and I know what I need to do to feel in harmony with it. Gabriella is a fantastic facilitator who offers a very safe space for women to share their experience. I recommend this workshop to any woman, from any age, who wants to understand their body better and discover the immense power of the feminine cycle!”

“I had no idea that there could be any sort of parallel between the season cycles and my own cycle! Knowing this has allowed me to be more accepting of how I feel at any given point in my menstrual cycle and harness the energy when I have it!”
Josephine F Curneen, Clinical Hypnotherapist UK
“As a Clinical Hypnotherapist I regularly work with women who find themselves at the mercy of their menstrual cycle and have long been aware of the connection to the negative psychological programming which we women have been subjected to for hundreds of years. I was therefore keen to explore the claim “your cycle can make you powerful” and so signed up for the Flying Solo Workshop. I was not disappointed. Gabriella’s wonderfully enthusiastic presentation made it an extremely enjoyable day and her obvious passion for her subject is infectious. Women everywhere could benefit from her insight.”
Isabella Colombo, Merchandising Director at Timberland
“What I have learnt at Flying Solo I is priceless for me! I am a very busy woman and what I know now about my cycle is very powerful, useful and practical!
What I used to consider a problem is now my best ally and I am going to treasure my cycle for the rest of my life, I feel I am eventually whole! I recommend any woman to learn this stuff otherwise she can’t live fully!”
Julie Carden, Midwife and Family Planning Nurse UK
“I found your workshop very inspirational. Everything you said made sense and opened my eyes to the simplicity and the common sense that surrounds the complexities of our lives as women. As a woman, my eyes have been opened to the deeper needs of my own body that I realised I had been ignoring, which may explain some of my inexplainable frustrations! I now feel a calm within, due to my ability to put my feelings into categories, some sort of order, whereas before I tended to feel confusion and frustration at my changing feelings. Thank you again for such an interesting and enjoyable day. The time went so quickly.”
Petra Ivan, Accounts Manager UK
“I went to Flying Solo I workshop not knowing what to expect and was really pleasantly surprised! I found out that there is so much more to womanhood, that the cycle plays such a major role in a woman’s life and it is such a gift! I now know why I become moody and sad every month and value it as a tool to be more myself and successful, wow! Thanks Gabriella for opening me to such a profound world! My life will never be the same again!”
Abi Foss, Freelance Writer UK
“I think it is such a shame that women have been brought up to see their cycle as some kind of biological inconvenience, to the point where some women take pills to stop it all together. What we are never taught is that women change throughout the month, not just biologically but emotionally, psychologically and even spiritually. Once you understand these changes you can work with them, not against them. I am amazed at how powerful I have found this knowledge to be. I always used to suffer with PMT (and so did my poor family!) but now I actually look forward to being pre-menstrual; I know how to manage it and it is my most creative time. Gabriella knows her subject and teaches it passionately. I wish every woman would take this workshop and learn about their cycle and how powerful it is.”

“Flying Solo I has been superb, it has enabled me to find out how to be myself with my menstrual cycle, it has enhanced my perception on how to deal with my emotions every day, it has dug deep down and I have come out of it refreshed, thanks Gabriella!”

“My menstrual cycle used to be quite chaotic, I had an enthusiastic phase and then a down phase not knowing what was going on within myself, now I know how to manage it, I have practical tools and know how to take care of myself. Every woman should have this knowledge! Thanks Gabriella for it!”
Nette Hargreaves, Student & Author UK
“Attending the Flying Solo I workshop gave me insights into the powers and energies of my menstrual cycle that were completely unknown to me! This is such valuable knowledge that I feel every woman should give herself the gift of learning this! I now feel that I have a greater insight into the different phases of my cycle and how to use the energy of each in an empowering way.”
Georgina Druce, Dreamwork Developments UK
“I have learnt so much about myself! The content is so great, an area I had not stopped to think about. By following my cycle I am going to be in my flow and be more productive. It is so obvious when you take the time to learn how to use your inner cycle to achieve success and abundance, thank you Gabriella!”
