Maxine's July Round Up: New Office Move, Paddleboarding Solo and an Exciting Announcement!

5 mins By Maxine Laceby By Maxine

Hello my lovely people! Maxine here, bringing you the latest from what has been an incredibly exciting and eventful month. From new beginnings in a brand-new office space to personal adventures there’s so much to share. So, grab a cuppa, get comfy, and let’s dive into what I’ve been up to!

Before we dive in I have to announce something that is truly one of the greatest achievements for Absolute Collagen. As you know we were awarded one of the UK's greatest places to work! Well, it's official… we were awarded one of the UK’s greatest places to work for women! ✨We came 17th in the entire country which is just absolutely incredible and I am so proud to share this with you all! Our mission has always been to help women feel the best versions of themselves. This extends beyond our amazing products to include the culture and ethos we work to cultivate within AC. We believe that every woman deserves the opportunity to grow, succeed, and be her authentic self, both inside and outside the workplace.

Our New Office!

Let’s start with some big news… Absolute Collagen has officially moved into a brand-new office! It feels like just yesterday my girls and I were working out of my home in Wolverhampton with no business experience, dreaming about what Absolute Collagen could one day be. Fast forward to now, and here we are in this beautiful, modern office that truly reflects the growth and spirit of our brand.

The new space is everything we envisioned, open, bright, and full of positive energy. It’s designed not just to be a workplace but a creative hub where ideas can flow and the team can thrive. Moving in was a whirlwind, but seeing it all come together has been incredibly rewarding. We even had a little celebration with the team to mark this new chapter, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come in our new home! 🏡

Paddleboarding Solo Adventure

As part of doing 60 things before I turn 60 I really wanted to do some paddleboarding in the lovely town of Bath! It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while, and I finally took the plunge (literally and figuratively!). There’s something so freeing about being out on the water, just you, your board, and the open sky. Paddleboarding alone gave me time to reflect, recharge, and just be in the moment. It wasn’t just about the physical challenge (though that was part of it); it was about pushing myself out of my comfort zone and embracing the serenity of nature. I came back feeling refreshed, with a renewed sense of energy and focus. If you haven’t tried solo paddleboarding yet, I highly recommend it—it’s an incredible way to connect with yourself and the world around you. 💛

 

 

My Sky Appearance!

This month I had the pleasure of joining my friend Tash on TaskTalks which aired on Sky TV! I had the amazing opportunity to talk about Absolute Collagen, share my journey, and discuss some exciting things we have in the pipeline. It was such a surreal experience, and I have to admit, there were a few butterflies in the stomach! But once I got going, it felt so natural. I am grateful for the opportunities that come my way and I will never take any for granted! Watch my episode below! ✨

So, that’s a wrap on this month’s adventures! It’s been a mix of new beginnings, personal growth, and some really exciting opportunities. I’m so grateful for all the love and support from each and every one of you. We have some exciting things coming up so watch this space 👀 Until then enjoy the sunshine and we’ll catch up next month! 💛
