Jen Samani

👾 I’ve felt like an alien. It’s taken me so long to realise and accept that my brain works differently and that that’s okay. #Neurodivergent 🧠 I couldn’t do the 9-5, so I’ve made a life now where I don’t have to. 🌸 I’ve decided to ‘stay wild’. ⭐️ And make art ⬇️

@NajJanetto @coldplay Yay 🥳 That’s great news!!

Celebrating being cancer free today, lots of preventative treatment on the way for a few years but….🥳🥳🥳🩵🩵🩵 I’ll be listening to plenty of @coldplay 🥳🥳🥳🩵🩵🩵

@bethnunn I wasn’t sure so I just changed it on social media and sanj got me a keyring saying ‘Mrs Samani’ 🤷‍♀️

My experience so far of changing my name after getting married… 1. Can’t find the marriage certificate. 2. Find the certificate stuffed at back of a drawer. 3. Try to figure out what to do to change name. 4. Having an existential crisis about changing my name to Beth Collins

@BudGardenCentre 🤣

@SamaniJen Aw Jen - we both know don’t we? 🥰🤪

Great thread. We are almost peas in a pod. Same here - I couldn't make my biz work (the way I want it to) if I didn't go to bed at 9 and get up at 5. People say they'd love to do what I do when they retire. Still more ask me for discounts + free plants.

@smizz Take it easy please Smizzo!

Been a rough old week. Glad it’s over. Last night, for my 1st proper meal of the week, I ate greasy pizza & gave myself *mild* pancreatitis, that was obvs inflamed from high calcium. Absolutely excruciating pain for 10+hrs. Still painful. So looking for tv/film recs to distract!

What I’ve learnt at @SchSocEnt Community Business Trade Up residential this week⚡️ ⭐️ Starting is the most important thing. ⭐️ Find Your ‘way in’ ⭐️ Be Visible ⭐️ You can’t be Cheap, Fast and Good. You can only ever be 2 of these. ⭐️ Create joy ⭐️ Stay Authentic

@Nickala5 @FlourishCIC @Shelleymetcalfe Aww I didn’t realise you were leaving @Shelleymetcalfe! Good luck and hope to bump in to you in whatever you’re upto next! X

Can't believe it's Shelley's last Time to Grow day she's running as she prepares for pastures new! A crucial part of the team for almost 3 years we wish her luck in her next chapter beyond @FlourishCIC @Shelleymetcalfe

@TheBarkerBaker @MaggieOliverUK @Mayameen_M Keep on shining bright in spite and because, in defiance. You are Strong.✨

The @MaggieOliverUK Foundation is about helping survivors of abuse... at the ball last night; I realised; I needed a Maggie. And a @Mayameen_M So, for the first time in my life; I write and own my truth. Trigger warning* thebarkerbaker.blogspot.com/2024/04/the-la…

@HannanRuth @caref_ll @Corner_Eighteen It was great!

@HannanRuth @caref_ll You and @Corner_Eighteen were both brilliant at getting the bigger picture across! loved the tyre metaphor.

Over five million unpaid carers across England, Scotland and Wales are now entitled to take unpaid leave. Campaigners say many struggle to hold a job and care for a loved one at the same time. Ruth Hannan from Care Full told 5 Live Breakfast that wider changes are needed.

@pieuksocial Loved it, thanks for having me! Xx
