This Girl Shines | The Shine Lounge Anmeldelser 13

Being part of The Shine Lounge has been such a wonderful experience. It is more than just a community — it is a place where you feel at home, where you feel seen, valued, and reminded that you matter.

It is a space to share, to laugh, and yes… sometimes even cry. A place filled with moments of joy, breakthroughs, encouragement, healing, and pure happiness.

Being part of the very first PenPal Revolution from South Africa was such a special and unforgettable experience for me. The connections, kindness, and support shared within this space are truly something beautiful.

If you are looking for a community filled with heart, authenticity, and genuine connection, The Shine Lounge is exactly that 💛

I really love the community inside The Shine Lounge. It's a supportive group of women who have reminded me that it's okay to slow down and take a moment for myself sometimes. I've also really, REALLY loved the pen pal exchanges! That's definitely been my favorite perk of being in the community—writing, sending, and receiving letters from all over the world. I can't wait for the next exchange!

The Shine lounge is such a great community to be a part of. Connecting with women all over the world and in my home country. Discovering & sharing life experiences, fears, achievements whatever the conversation may be. Its warm, friendly, a great pick me up, anytime I feel the need. Well done Julie & Thank You!

I am so glad I found this page! Julie is the kindest soul with a huge heart. The page has such a beautiful vibe and everyone is so supportive and kind. It’s kind of like getting a big squishy hug when you pop in and say hi. Julie puts her heart and soul into this space and it really shows. I have really enjoyed being a part of it and I have loved the connection. The pen pal cafe has been amazing. Thanks Julie ❤️

I so enjoy Julie’s space This Girl Shines. It’s so cozy and comforting with a fabulous community of lovely ladies. Julie is kind, generous and very thoughtful with everything she does and brings to the community. From the monthly shine drops to the pen pal exchange and more, Julie has created a safe and caring space. I would highly recommend it! 💕

I have to admit, I didn't really know what to expect when I joined the Shine Lounge, but I am really glad I did. It has a great community vibe and is very open and caring. Love getting to know the ladies in there, especially the host Julie. She has some great creative and fun activites that she shares regularly! Highly recommend this space!

I'm loving the interaction, acceptance and cosy feel in The Shine Lounge. I came for the penpal writing and have stayed as it nourishes my soul in gentle and unexpected ways. What a wonderful space to participate in <3

Julie is the most beautiful, caring human! This Girl Shines is so amazing. It is a beautiful place to be if you are having a rough day, feeling a little down and also just generally a great place to socialise and chat with other ladies who completely understand, listen and provide positive and kind support. It's a beautiful Community that any lady over 40 should definitely give a try 😊

I am just so glad I found Julie and The Shine Lounge! Her community makes life feel way less lonely and WAY more beautiful. It's the perfect space for women who just need a place to exhale, connect with real human beings and FINALLY be themselves!! No matter what's going on in their lives. <3

The Shine Lounge is such a lovely, supportive community. I’ve been a member of it since it opened more than 6 months ago, and I always seem to find exactly what I need, whether that’s calm, support, motivation, or gentle movement. The bite-sized self-care options like audios, stretching, yoga, journaling, and even the PenPal project make it easy to dip in and take care of yourself without feeling overwhelmed, nor needing to spend a lot of time on self-care.

What really makes The Shine Lounge special is the care and enthusiasm Julie puts into it. She’s a truly sparkly and gorgeous soul, and that energy shines through in the whole space. I highly recommend The Shine Lounge to anyone looking for gentle, supportive self-care without needing to find lots of time or put a lot of effort on it. 💖

Stepping into This Girl Shines feels like finally finding the soft landing you didn’t know you were craving. In a world that keeps asking women to push harder, do more, and reinvent themselves on command, The Shine Lounge offers something radically different: a place to simply be.

There’s a tenderness woven into every corner of this community. Nothing feels performative or pressured. Instead, it feels like being welcomed by women who understand the beautiful, complicated, heart‑full reality of midlife. The monthly Shine Drops are like tiny care packages for the soul—gentle yoga fusion, soothing sleep audios, thoughtful affirmation resets, and the sweetest Pen Pal Exchange that brings back a kind of connection we’ve all been missing.

What amazes me most is how effortlessly it all fits into real life. Ten minutes here, a quiet moment there—and somehow you feel more grounded, more seen, more you. It’s not about fixing anything. It’s about remembering your own magic, one soft breath at a time.

This Girl Shines isn’t just a community. It’s a sanctuary. A reminder that midlife can be tender, hopeful, and beautifully yours. And honestly, that feels nothing short of extraordinary.

I love being part of a The Shine Lounge community where we can truly share who we are and connect with other women in a meaningful way.

The Shine Lounge is one of the coziest places on the internet. I have been part of this community since day one, and it has been beautiful to witness its growth. Jules leads with softness and intention, and that is something you feel right away. From Pen Pal Revolution to our monthly Shine Drops, she has created a space filled with love, compassion, and mindful self-care.
