About Collette Costello

When I became a mother, my life changed completely. I realised how challenging big life changes can be for your sense of identity, and how it can be a struggle to rediscover the new you.

I found that practising mindful activities, such as hand sewing and sharing this with other women, helped me create a space where we could talk about problems and self-reflect.

This led me to start the ‘Mindful Threads’ community, which focuses on supporting women through the big life changes they face by promoting mindfulness and self-care.
