Kate Edmunds Emotional Coach

15/07/2025

Did you know that many employees aren't leaving jobs because of their mental health, but their children’s?

The truth is, many parents are struggling behind the scenes. School disruptions, emotional outbursts, caring responsibilities… it adds up. And traditional EAPs aren’t built for that kind of support.

That’s why Ollie and his Super Powers is so important. Developed by Ali Knowles, this unique therapeutic approach helps children understand and manage their emotions while providing parents with the tools to cope, stay strong, and continue working.

Karl Bennett, Wellbeing Director and Chair of EAPA UK, saw this firsthand. He called it a “game changer”. And now EAPs (Employee Assistance Programs) across the UK are starting to integrate it into their offers.

Because if we want healthier, happier workplaces, we need to start supporting the whole family.

You know that child.
The one who’s full of life but suddenly shuts down in the classroom.
Or the one who explodes in frustration, but no one sees the anxiety underneath.
The one who just doesn’t seem to fit.

Maybe you’ve met them at school.
Maybe they’re your own child.
Maybe… you were that child.

Now imagine being the person who helps them make sense of it all, not by fixing them, but by showing them how powerful they already are.

That’s what being an Ollie Coach is all about.
It’s not therapy.
It’s not behaviour management.
It’s something gentler, deeper, and more effective.

And it starts with a free, informal call with Ali Knowles — the heart and soul behind the Ollie Model.

This isn’t a recruitment pitch.
It’s a chance to find out whether this approach resonates with you. Whether this is a path you’ve been quietly searching for.

🗓️ It’s online
🎟️ It’s free

It's Men's Health Month, and here at Ollie and His Super Powers, we're all about championing everyone's well-being, including the guys in our lives! This month, we're supporting Men's Health Month to shine a light on the unique health challenges men face.

Let's be real: men and boys, just like the rest of us, deserve to feel strong, understood, and supported, both physically and emotionally. It's time to ditch the old stigmas and start talking openly!

Simple Ways to Support the Men and Boys You Know.
Encourage open chats: Create a safe space where they can talk about their feelings and worries without judgment. Sometimes, just being there to listen is the greatest gift.

Emphasise preventative care: Regular check-ups, screenings, and healthy habits are super important. Gently remind them to book those appointments, even if they feel totally fine!
Promote healthy living: Think balanced meals, regular exercise, enough sleep, and good ways to manage stress. Little changes really can make a huge difference!

Be a positive role model: Show the men and boys around you that it's okay to ask for help, show emotion, and put their well-being first.
Become an Ollie Coach: Make a Real Difference!
At Ollie and His Superpowers, we believe in helping people turn their emotions into their very own "Super Powers." Our approach helps build emotional resilience and confidence, which is so important for men and boys navigating life's ups and downs.

Want to make an even bigger impact? You can train to become an Ollie Coach! Our awesome program gives you all the tools and techniques to support kids, teens, and even adults in developing their emotional intelligence and overall well-being. Imagine helping someone unlock their inner strength and face life with more confidence – that's the incredible power of being an Ollie Coach.
