π Hi, Iβm Bamike
An accountant by training, a creative at heart, and the founder of BTS Creating Wellbeing.
For over 20 years, I worked in finance β supporting charities, startups, and infrastructure projects to
manage their resources wisely and build long-term sustainability. Iβve always loved the clarity and order
that numbers bring.But somewhere along the way, I realised something was missing in my life, and
often in the lives of those I worked with.
β¨ The Missing Piece: Space
What was missing was space β space to breathe, to feel, to express, and to reconnect with ourselves.
Like many people, I had been moving through life on autopilot: productive but depleted, efficient but
disconnected from my own creativity. So I began exploring art, craft, and mindfulness β
first as a personal refuge, then as a transformative tool I wanted to share with others.
π¨ From Numbers to Needlework
My well-being journey began with simple things: dress-making, bag-making, sketching.
I wasnβt trying to create something perfect. I was learning to be present, to embrace imperfection, and to enjoy the process.
Over time, I discovered how creative activities helped me:
Manage stress and anxiety
Find joy in the everyday
Feel more connected to myself and others
I trained to teach mindfulness and began leading craft-based wellbeing workshops. Time and again, I witnessed how these gentle sessions helped people navigate:
Grief
Burnout
Anxiety
Itβs been a privilege to walk alongside so many incredible individuals on this mindful and creative journey.
πΈ Why I Founded BTS Creating Well-being
To make space for:
Creativity
Calm
Community
My mission is simple but profound:
To help people reconnect with their inner resources through art, mindfulness, and self-expression.

π Why It Matters
In a world that often measures us by what we produce, I believe we need spaces that honour being over doing.
Spaces where:
Rest is productive
Mistakes are beautiful
Creativity is healing
I hope BTS Creating Well-being can be that space for you.
