I work extensively with people who support the youth (educationists, leaders, youth workers, charities) to create healthy conditions and cultures that promote mental health for youngsters.How do I work?As a trainer I work with coaches, leaders, schools, charities and businesses to show develop a wellbeing approach that shines a spotlight on mental health (rather than illness). I run conferences, events, retreats and online programmes that promote a simple understanding (called the Inside-Out understanding) that helps people to connect to clarity and to trust their intuition.As a society we all have a stake in supporting our young people to become thriving adults. The current mental-health epidemic shows that we need a different approach - I provide a different approach. My approach is not based on tools, techniques on strategies. I support people to reconnect with their in-built resilience and wellbeing and to realise that happiness, contentment, gratitude and joy are within us all - you don't need to chase them.I am currently championing a new movement called 'Resilient Young Minds' which is connecting young people, coaches and change-makers across the world to recognise their internal resilience and mental health. This growing network is reaching out to support young people across the world.How can I work with you?My 1:1 leadership coaching packages will focus on wellbeing. I run retreats in Devon and Dorset. There are online programmes for you to engage in, plus podcasts and a weekly blog.What is my background?- A former BBC radio reporter (using my interviewing skills for podcasts)- Coach and trainer (working within education and across businesses)- Inside-Out facilitator and trainerHow will I know if you're the right fit for me?Email me info@coachingconnect.co.uk to find out more Show less
