I just started a new group on my Standing Firm programme. It’s a powerful 4-hour programme delivered over 4 weeks, empowering participants to build skill and support for dealing with uncertainty and challenge. It’s all about creating change and new more empowering approaches to life’s challenges. I’ve also recently delivered some Vison Workshops so I …
