Thank you to Country Education Partnerships (CEP) for inviting me to be a keynote speaker at your Small Schools Forum today.

Teachers play a critical role in supporting and building the next generation. It was a privilege to be able to share ideas on the benefits of Lego-based therapy to help children with social communication difficulties.

If your school would like to find out more about how Lego can be used to build social communication skills please reach out to me and I’d be happy to help.

Thanks too for letting me share the resources from my book ‘The Mentally Fit Leader’. Teachers do a remarkable job…remember to thank them for their hard work!

Excited to announce today I finished the filming for my Mentally Fit & Thriving Online Course!

Leaders and professionals are experiencing higher levels of psychological distress and mental health difficulties than the general population. Yet, are far less likely to seek help.

Based on my book ‘The Mentally Fit Leader’, this on demand course will make information on how to build mentally fit strategies into daily life, more accessible.

Prioritising work doesn't need to be at the expense of self-care!

I have spent this week in Nusa Dua Bali with eight amazing women and achieve more than would have been possible at the office back home. Deep strategic thinking and creativity needs time and space.

Thank you to Jane Anderson for organising Content Creation Bootcamp Bali and providing us with the time, space, support and care we needed to produce our best work.

Thank you to the women who inspired me as we worked together, Jeanette Cremor, Alessandra Edwards, Samantha Pearce, Kim Copeland, Alex Pope, Dr Michelle Gibbings, Jackie Stapleton.

Thank you to the ADAVB Mid Western Group for having me speak tonight.

25% of dentists experience burnout, 32% experience moderate to severe psychological distress, and 1 in 6 think about taking their own life.

It was a privilege to be able to share 12 practical strategies tonight to help dentists be mentally fit and have a sustainable work life.
