What if making mistakes actually made you more valuable?

Think about it.

Someone leaves milk out by mistake and it starts going sour. You’d think it was ruined, yet with the right process milk can become yoghurt, which is worth more. Turn it into cheese and it can be worth even more.

Same with grapes. They start fermenting and what looks like something going wrong can turn into w**e worth hundreds of pounds.

Now think about yourself.

How many mistakes have you made in life? How many times have you beaten yourself up over something you’ve done wrong?

But look at what you’ve learnt from those mistakes. The experience you’ve gained, the things you now know and the way you look at things differently.

You wouldn’t have learnt half of that if everything had gone right.

Making mistakes doesn’t make you less valuable. Learning from them makes you more valuable.

Stop beating yourself up over your past. You can’t change what’s happened, but you can change what you take from it.

Today is World Mental Health Day. 💚

Whilst it’s great to see so many people raising awareness today, mental health isn’t something we should only be talking about once a year.

Mental health matters 365 days a year.

People don’t just struggle on World Mental Health Day. They struggle on ordinary Mondays, on weekends, at work, at home and sometimes when everything on the outside looks absolutely fine.

It’s easy to share a post today telling people to reach out, check on their mates and look after themselves.

But what about tomorrow? Next week? Next month?

That’s when it matters just as much.

Don’t just make today about mental health awareness. Make it something you think about every day.

Check in on people. Listen without judging. Remember to look after your own mental health too.

Because mental health doesn’t have a day off, and neither should our awareness of it. 💚

Something new is coming 📖✨

Following on from the success of Tommy and the Feeling Factory and Tia and the Whispering Forest, it’s time to meet Zara.

A story about confidence, self-belief and learning how to handle the thoughts and feelings that can sometimes get in our way.

And just like Tommy and Tia, Zara’s story introduces real techniques that children can use in their own lives.

Yesterday was GCSE results day 🎓

For some young people, yesterday was full of celebrations.

For others, it might not have gone the way they hoped.

But today is a new day.

If you smashed your results - be proud of yourself. You earned that moment.

If you didn’t get the results you wanted - be proud of yourself too.

A few numbers on a piece of paper don’t measure your potential, your character, your work ethic or what you’re capable of becoming.

Sometimes the route we planned changes.

That doesn’t mean the destination has to.

There are always other options, other opportunities and other ways forward.

Whatever happened yesterday, today you get to decide what happens next. 💙

We all start with a plan.

Then life happens.

Setbacks. Pressure. Doubt. Obstacles.

The people who succeed aren’t the ones whose journey goes exactly to plan. They’re the ones who adapt, learn and keep moving forward.

The goal doesn’t have to change.

Just because the path does.

What’s one challenge you’ve overcome that made you stronger?

This whole Boro / Southampton spygate situation shows what pressure can do to people.

When there’s a lot on the line, some people trust the work they’ve already done.

Others start trying to control everything around them because pressure and doubt creeps in.

That’s not just football either.
People do it in everyday life all the time.

Overthinking.
Needing reassurance.
Trying to get certainty before something important.

Real confidence comes from trusting yourself and the preparation you’ve already put in.

Pressure has a way of exposing where people are mentally.
