The 9AM Circle - Tuesday 23 June

The 9AM Circle is a regular meet-up designed specifically for freelance and self-employed mums in South Birmingham.

We meet at 9 o'clock straight after the school run, with a focus on genuine connection, camaraderie and support.

There's no pressure to stay until the end - you can be there for as little or as long as you like.

And it doesn't matter if you're running late either. We're mums - we get it!

This isn't traditional networking. There are no sales pitches. There's no pressure.

It's just good conversation, good coffee, and a room full of people who understand the juggle.

Motherhood can be lonely. Freelancing can be lonely. Doing both at the same time can create a particular kind of isolation.

The 9AM Circle was created by two freelance mums and neighbours - Nat Merrix and Tina Parker.

They wanted to bring together freelance and self-employed mums who are navigating the same unique position - building a business while raising a family.

It's a space to talk business without apologising for being a parent, a space to talk parenting without minimising your ambition, a space to feel understood in both.

This event is for you if you live in South Birmingham and:

• You’re freelance or self-employed
• You want local professional connection
• You find traditional networking tricky to attend
• You’d love to build community with people who get it

Whether you’re a consultant, creative, coach, founder, or sole trader - we'd love to see you there.
