Getting People Talking is my Jam!
There may be some things you just don't want to talk about... but know that it needs to be covered...
Maybe it was something that happened at work.
Maybe it was a topic that was raised on a break.
Maybe it's just something different and you would like your team to be better informed.
Whether it is at your workplace, at a business function or presentation to your clients, I am happy to tackle some of those tricky topics for you, with engaging & entertaining conversations.
Below are some of the common topics I've done.
Feel free to ask me to cover something new!
Mental Health
Suicide is NOT an option!
I share my first hand experiences of family members experiencing mental health challenges, as well as losing siblings.
We will discuss what to look for in yourself, and how to look after yourself for the future.
A frank and sobering discussion.
Health & Safety
Fun is all good - until someone is seriously hurt.
Drawing on an experience of tragedy, this is a discussion that is not had enough.
Ditch the drugs - life is for living!
I cover the stark reality of what to expect in the event of a serious accident, and the ongoing reality of the consequences.
Menopause
This is a topic that is often avoided or generates an eye roll when mentioned.
But it impacts EVERYONE!
Whilst every woman goes through it, (51% of the population!), partners, family, colleagues & Leaders all need to be aware of it.
These talks are offered for women 35-60, partner of said women, colleagues and leaders of said women - Yes! Everyone!
Bullying and Harassment
TAKE A STAND AGAINST UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR IN THE WORKPLACE.
Making another human fearful & miserable is NOT ok - ever!
I talk frankly about workplace incidents that impact considerably on others.
We talk about what these experiences may be like, signs that it could be going on, make a plan on what to do about it and how to reduce the risk of it happening.
When Resilience Laughs in Your Face
LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS - LEARN TO SUCK IT, PULL THE FUNNY FACE, THROW IT ON THE GROUND, SQUISH IT AND WALK AWAY.
A heart-warming & entertaining talk about recognising the strengths that you have, so that you can call on them when you are challenged.
From family & friends, loss & love, embracing the ability to dig deep when needed, and saying what you think, (Over 50 filter fails!), this chat is not for the sensitive.
Parenting Through Separation
CHILDREN ARE TO BE LOVED & NUTURED - by BOTH parents.
This process is hard!
Having raised my children on my own for 12 years, I fully understand the pain and suffering that occurs through separation, for ALL parties.
Knowing where I went wrong and where I was strong, I love to help parents look at the bigger picture and work towards a solution that works for all parties.
