GCSE results day isn’t just about the grades in an envelope. It’s about the people who’ve been walking alongside young people through the highs and lows of the last few years.

💛 To teachers: thank you. You’ve held space for so much more than curriculum. Late-night marking, endless encouragement, quiet moments of reassurance. Today might stir up pride, relief, or even frustration when you know a student’s potential isn’t fully reflected on paper. Please remember: you’ve given them something far greater than a grade… belief in themselves.

🌱 To parents and carers: results day can feel just as intense for you. Watching your child navigate excitement, nerves, or disappointment can be overwhelming. What matters most is not the outcome, but the sense of safety, love and support you provide. That’s what young people will carry with them far beyond today.

✨ However today looks, know that your presence, patience, and care make all the difference. You’re building resilience and self-belief in ways no exam ever could.

👉 Teachers, parents and carers: How are you choosing to look after yourself today?

✨ Please give this a share 💛 (and if you can, add a little comment when you do otherwise Facebook barely shows it to anyone!).

One week today until my workshop!! 🎉

Do you care about the mental health and wellbeing of others? 🌱
Would you like to deepen your understanding of how trauma shows up in the body, in behaviour, and in relationships so you can respond with compassion and clarity rather than overwhelm or judgement?

Then these workshops are for you 👇

📅 Wednesday 27th August

I’m running 3 CPD-accredited workshops:
• Trauma Informed Practice & Awareness in the Workplace
• The Physiology of Domestic Abuse
• Trauma Informed Parenting to Enhance Mental Health & Wellbeing

Each workshop will give you practical, nervous system-informed tools to:
✨ Understand survival responses (fight, flight, freeze, fawn) without judging people
✨ Recognise how stress and trauma live in the body and shape behaviour
✨ Create safer environments at work, at home, and in community

And yes, you’ll leave with a CPD certificate to add to your portfolio or CV! 🥰
Discounts available for multiple bookings or when booking with a friend 🫶🏼

👉 If your gut is saying “this is what I need,” come join us next week. You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more empowered.

Hands up if the school holidays are testing your patience 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️ Snacks on repeat, kids bouncing off the walls, and routines out the window… sound familiar?

The thing is… when kids are out of rhythm, their behaviour can look tricky. But often it’s not “bad behaviour” at all, it’s just stress showing up in their little nervous systems.

A few small shifts can make home life feel calmer:
✨ Stick to one routine (bedtime helps!)
✨ Take a breath before reacting
✨ Connection before correction (“I get you’re upset” before consequences)
✨ Remember: you don’t need to be perfect, just good enough 🫶🏼

On Wednesday 27th August (4–7pm) I’m running a CPD-accredited workshop at Toughsheet Stadium: Supporting Children’s Mental Wellbeing So They Can Thrive.

It’s for parents, carers, teachers and anyone who wants more tools to help children feel safe and supported.

📩 Message me for more info!

And in the meantime… what’s your go-to survival strategy for the holidays? 🍫☕🛁

‘Why don’t they just leave?’ is a question survivors of domestic abuse hear all too often. On the surface it might sound simple, but it reflects a misunderstanding of how the body and brain respond to trauma.

When someone is living in abuse, their nervous system goes into survival mode:
⚡ Freeze: shutting down to stay safe
⚡ Fawn: people-pleasing to reduce conflict
⚡ Fight: defensive reactions that can be misinterpreted
⚡ Flight: avoiding situations that feel unsafe

These aren’t choices. They’re protective responses designed to keep a person alive.

On Wednesday 27th August (12:30–3:30pm) at the Toughsheet Stadium, my CPD-accredited workshop, ‘The Physiology of Domestic Abuse’, will explore:
✔ How abuse impacts the nervous system
✔ Why “just leaving” isn’t always possible
✔ Trauma-informed ways to support survivors with clarity and compassion
✔ CPD hours you can add to your professional CV and portfolio

The more we understand, the better we can support.

👉 What misunderstandings about domestic abuse have you heard that need to be challenged?

1 in 4 people experience a mental health problem each year in the UK. That’s not a statistic that lives ‘out there’. It’s someone in your office, your team, a client, or even you.

Too often, workplaces focus on productivity while overlooking the nervous system. But stress, burnout, and disconnection are not personal failings. They’re survival responses.

A trauma-informed workplace changes that. It creates environments where people feel safe, valued, and supported to do their best work.

On Wednesday 27th August at Toughsheet Stadium, I’ll be delivering a half-day workshop on ‘Improving Mental Health and Wellbeing in the Workplace’.

✅ CPD-accredited training you can add to your portfolio and CV
✅ Practical tools leaders can use to reduce stress and burnout
✅ Strengths-based strategies that build trust and resilience

If you’re a leader, HR professional, or wellbeing champion, this workshop is for you.

Such a lovely meeting with MP Jo Platt last week and cannot wait to support the local community 🤍

10/08/2025

What is a trauma bond and why is it so hard to let go of someone who hurt you?

It’s NOT love. It’s your brain and body’s survival mechanism responding to a cycle of abuse and false affection.

You feel addicted to the highs and lows. That rush of love bombing followed by confusion and pain.

The cycle of love bombing, devaluation, discard, and hoovering keeps you trapped and stuck.

But here’s the truth: you’re not crazy, you’re trauma bonded. Your nervous system adapted to survive.

The good news? You can break free. And freedom isn’t just about walking away. It’s about reclaiming your peace and your power.

Swipe through to understand the stages. Knowledge is power, and healing starts with awareness.

Today I had the privilege of meeting with my local MP Jo Platt to discuss two urgent priorities for Atherton & Leigh:

🧒 Supporting child-focused settings: ensuring all settings for young people have the skills and confidence to use trauma-informed practice to support mental health and wellbeing.
💔 Tackling domestic abuse: improving early intervention and support for survivors, in line with the Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) agenda.

With over 35% of children locally living in poverty and domestic abuse cases worryingly high, these issues are at the heart of my CPD-accredited workshops on trauma-informed practice and the physiology of domestic abuse.

Jo was incredibly supportive and loved hearing about my work. She shared so many ideas and contacts to help connect my training with the right people and organisations in our community.

It’s so encouraging to see this level of enthusiasm for creating safer, more supportive environments for children and survivors locally. I’m excited for the collaborations that could follow.
