Leanne Brown
Not Just A Housewife...
Leanne Brown may best be known for being a star on the ITV Be program 'The Real Housewives of Cheshire', but what can I tell you about 'Leanne Brown' as a person? It's quite simple, she's not 'just a housewife'.
​
We met Leanne on yet another miserable Manchester 'summer' day, in a cute little cafe. The first thing we find out about Leanne is to do with her food choices, she's thoughtful and considerate to everything she puts in her body thanks to her semi new way of life, plant based eating. That was the first tick for our LIFE branding. We're conscientious of everything that affects our mind and body, and it turns out Leanne is the same.
​
Charity was the next topic on the agenda and it was clear to see how passionate she is about various projects. Walks, assault courses, skydives, nothing is off the agenda for Leanne when it comes to raising money for causes close to her heart. One such cause stood out by a mile. 'One Woman At A Time'
​
The aim of this small local charity is to identify and assist women of any age to achieve a helping hand in gaining education, training and employment to change their and the families future.
They are working in Ortum Kenya and Nigeria to sponsor girls to fulfil their dreams of getting an education, to gain financial independence and to have choices about their lives. Leanne helped them raise over £30,000 by hosting their empowerment ball earlier on this year, and that's only the start of her efforts. Very soon she will be taking part in a China walk and a calendar.

Earlier on this year Leanne went to Africa and India to learn more about FGM and went to a women's refuge with the thought process of finding women that 'One Woman at a Time' can help. Their idea is to have the girls sponsored to get an education, empower them and prevent them from being sold. The core message was that Leanne and Jean (the founder of 'One Woman at a Time) want the girls to gain economic power, which is EVERYTHING The LIFE expo is about. That's when we knew, we simply have to have Leanne at the expo!
​
We echo Leanne and Jean's vision, we don't just want to provide economic power here in the UK. We want to spread a bigger and better word, we want them to have our platform and full support to continue on their journey helping women and girls outside of the UK too!
​
Give Leanne's VLog a watch, it's a truly fascinating insight into their mission...

So that's it from us. We're delighted to have Leanne on board, and we hope you will support her in her charity vision.
Not only that, but we're delighted to announce that Leanne will soon be launching a fantastic product, that once again fits perfectly with our 'LIFE' mission. It will empower a vision for everyone to set their goals and achieve them! More on that in our newsletter, when she's ready to announce the next big venture!

There's far more to this lady that 'just a housewife'.

Welcome Leanne, it's a pleasure to have you!
