Our History
Our History - Online
In 2020 it was evident and widely reported that the global pandemic was having a devastating impact on the mindsets of young people.
“NHS Digital and The Office for National Statistics published research showing that one in six children and young people had a probable mental health problem in July 2020 – a rise from one in nine in 2017.”
Knowing what a profound impact positive mindfulness and mindset techniques have on children, Tessa, along with her children Oscar and Annie, decided to support families online - MiniMe Mindfulness® was formed.
Within a matter of weeks, they built an online community of thousands of families who were tuning in daily to watch MiniMe Mindfulness® LIVE. They then published the MiniMe Mindfulness® Journal to enable families to support daily mindfulness and mindset practices at home.
MiniMe Mindfulness® were soon recognised by national newspapers as the ‘Best live lesson (in the mental wellbeing category) during Lockdown’ and were praised by schools, teachers, parents, fostering agencies, charities, international schools and children.
Our History -
The Franchise
In 2021, when children returned to the classrooms, there was an immediate need and high demand for MiniMe Mindfulness® to support children with our positive mental health strategies via schools and nurseries and in the community.
Tessa responded quickly, establishing the Flagship Franchise in Chelmsford, establishing a programme of positive mindfulness and mindset sessions delivered in a unique, fun and innovative way.
Providing both online ‘Mentoring 4 Kids by Kids’ and in-person sessions, delivering high-quality engaging solutions.
The Franchise network launched in 2021 to expand the reach to children all over the UK. An ‘award winning’ combination of:
A unique, fun and innovative positive mindfulness and mindset programme for kids.
Tessa’s business background and extensive knowledge in creating a business network with a simple duplicable system.
A talented team of heart led leaders - Franchisees & Mindset Mentors.
MIniMe Mindfulness® was recognised and awarded “Franchise of the Year in 2023” by Club Hub UK.
Our Founder - Tessa Hawes
A forward thinking, heart led, passionate entrepreneur, world traveller and Mum!
Tessa had a 20+ year career in the City of London as a Corporate Financial Adviser and when she became a Mum in 2012, wanted more time flexibility than the 9-5 allowed, so started her own Network Marketing business.
In 2013, after achieving quick business success, she left the City and continued to build her business which entailed coaching others to succeed as entrepreneurs.
Realising that mindset was such a crucial part of success in all areas of life, led her to building the Boss Your Morning® App. She knew that practicing positive mindfulness and mindset techniques were not just for business but ‘skills for life’.
She witnessed first-hand the positive and life-changing ‘ripple effect’ that it has on businesses, individuals, families, communities and children.
Now a very proud Founder, CEO and Mindset Mentor of MiniMe Mindfulness® - changing the lives of heart led leaders that partner with the brand and the children, parents and teachers that engage in the courses.
Looking to mentor the right people to follow a simple duplicable system - creating positive foundations for our future generations in a fun and innovative way.

You are buying a business, so your efforts will determine the business that you build and the income that you receive. We link arms with you to ensure that you have all the knowledge and support to create the income that you desire. If you work your business part time (teaching 10 hours per week - term time only) you could earn an income of c.£20k per annum- therefore repaying your initial investment and creating a profit in year 1. This is why a Franchise is more cost effective than a 'traditional start up business' which often operate at a loss in the initial stages as they invest in infrastructure, marketing, product development, and other startup costs.
The system and structure in place supports you to make money, and generate a profit from year 1. If you follow the system for success, this is the result that you should enjoy.
Tessa's business expertise and proven track record in the financial sector and business world is a huge benefit, and unique offering as a Franchisor. She will help you to build an award winning business that flourishes, enabling you to create the work/life balance and income that you desire.
