We had a wonderful time at our Christmas Party last Friday! We kicked off the celebrations at Pino and Picasso on Shelley Street, where the team had a blast getting creative. After that, we headed to a waterside restaurant in Pyrmont for a relaxing meal. The highlight of the day was bringing together our incredible operations team, clinicians and psychologists—a chance for everyone to connect, bond, and unwind after such a busy year. The work they do every day, supporting clients with complex trauma and disabilities, is incredibly challenging, and we want to take a moment to thank each and every one of them for their dedication. Your efforts make a real difference, and we appreciate everything you do—each interaction is an opportunity for impact.

We would also like to do a special mention to Anastasia Massouras, CEO and Founder of both Pure Insights and Work Happy, we thank you for your amazing support, your strength, resilience and determination for change is very inspiring. This beautiful day would not have been possible without your generosity, not only today but every day.

Here a few photos from our day with the Pure Insights and Work Happy team.

Reflecting on the year gone by is always a valuable exercise, and here at Pure Insights, it's been a year of growth, change, and impactful progress. 🌟

We’ve made some major strides, including a shift in operations, welcoming new team members, and successfully integrating a new booking system. This change required the incredible dedication of our operational staff, clinicians, and providers, and I’m proud to say we executed it seamlessly.

Most importantly, we’ve continued to create a real impact in the employment services space. One participant at a time, one session at a time, we’ve been able to help people get closer to their goals and break down their barriers. We know we have had made changes by the feedback we receive—whether it’s from heartfelt testimonials or the simple yet powerful "We got the job!" texts—proves we’re making a difference.

None of this would be possible without the passion and commitment of our dedicated psychologists and clinicians. We are incredibly proud of the team at Pure Insights and huge shout out to all providers for the amazing work they do day in and day out.

Every day, we’re on a mission to change lives and empower individuals to reach their full potential. Here's to another year of impact and transformation! 🙌

🌍💙 World Kindness Day- Let's make a Difference 💙🌍

Today, on World Kindness Day, we’re reminded that kindness is more than just a nice gesture—it’s a powerful force for positive change. In our busy lives, it’s easy to overlook the impact that a simple act of kindness can have. But whether it’s a warm smile, a thoughtful gesture, or offering a helping hand, these small acts create ripples of goodwill that can transform a day, a relationship, or even an entire community.

At work, in our communities, and in our personal lives, kindness can take many forms:

Acknowledge someone's effort: A simple "thank you" can go a long way in boosting morale and fostering goodwill.

Lend a listening ear: Sometimes, all someone needs is to feel heard and understood. Offering your time and attention is a powerful act of kindness.

Offer support and encouragement: In both professional and personal settings, offering a helping hand can make a world of difference to someone struggling.

Kindness is contagious—when we show kindness, we inspire others to do the same. It creates a ripple effect that spreads far beyond the initial act, building trust, connection, and collaboration. In the workplace, it leads to better team dynamics, higher morale, and a stronger sense of community. In our personal lives, it fosters stronger relationships and a greater sense of belonging.

On this World Kindness Day, let’s commit to making kindness a daily practice. It doesn’t have to be grand, but it can always be meaningful.

Whether it’s showing appreciation for someone, offering help without being asked, or simply choosing to be patient, each act contributes to making the world a little bit brighter.

✨Together, we can make a difference—one kind act at a time. ✨

"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh.

There was a pause.

"Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet.

"No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do."

"That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.

"What are you doing?" asked Pooh.

"Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.

"But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh."

And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right."
A.A. Milne

Sending thoughts to those having a Difficult Day today and hope you have your own Piglet to sit beside you.

~ A.A. Milne, Winnie the Pooh

🌍 October is World Mental Health Month 🌍

This month is a powerful reminder of the importance of mental health and well-being for everyone, everywhere. Mental health is not just about the absence of mental disorders; it's about our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act in our daily lives.

🧠 Mental health matters for all of us:

📍 It’s okay to ask for help.
📍 It’s okay to prioritise self-care.
📍 It’s okay to talk about how you’re feeling.

In a world where we often focus on productivity and external success, let's also focus on inner balance, mindfulness, and taking care of each other.

Whether through professional support, talking to friends, or finding ways to decompress, there's always a way to improve and maintain mental wellness.

Let’s break the stigma together!

Here are some ways you can get involved this month:

1️⃣ Start conversations with empathy.
2️⃣ Share resources to support mental well-being.
3️⃣ Take time for self-care.
4️⃣ Encourage mental health initiatives in your workplace.
