Trying on my keynote outfit today.

And it stopped me in my tracks.
Not because of how it looks .....
but because of how it allows me to show up.

InnerMe was never designed to make things smaller.

It was designed to create safety, for children, families, and the services supporting them.... so meaningful change can happen without force or fear.

That same principle guides how I lead rooms.
✨️Calm.
✨️Grounded.
✨️Clear.

This isn’t about standing out.
It’s about standing steady.

✔️Because when professionals feel safe, they think more clearly.
✔️When teams feel supported, they respond more effectively.
✔️And when leadership brings regulation, culture begins to shift.

This is how InnerMe shows up in practice.
Not louder.
Not sharper.
Just steadier.

Wednesday, im ready for you.

Behaviour doesn’t sit just with the child.
And it doesn’t belong just to families either.
As professionals, we are part of the process.

The InnerMe Keynote Day and Your Inner Rhythm workshop were designed to help professionals recognise how our presence, our nervous systems, and our responses shape what happens next .... long before strategies or plans come into play.

This work is neuro-affirming and trauma-informed.
It works with or without a diagnosis, because nervous systems don’t wait for labels.🫣

When professionals understand:
• how the body drives behaviour
• how safety is felt, not forced
• how regulation starts with us
services stop asking “What’s wrong with this child?”
and start asking “What’s happening here .... and how do we support it?”

That shift changes everything.
For children.
For families.
For the professionals holding the work.

Next week is the first time I’m sharing this approach publicly and I can’t wait to see services step into this in a real, honest way.

Because behaviour is the body’s story.
And we’re always part of how that story unfolds.

I work with families every day where life is hard, emotions run high, and trust has often been worn thin.

And here’s the truth people don’t say enough:
I don’t deliver a service.
I’m part of the process.

My nervous system walks into the room with me.
My body, my tone, my pace, my presence.... all of it matters.

If I’m rushed, tense, or holding stress in my body, families feel it before I open my mouth.
Children feel it even quicker.

That’s why tuning into my bodily signals isn’t a nice extra, it’s the work.

Noticing:
✨️when my shoulders creep up
✨️when my breathing shortens
✨️when I’m pushing instead of listening
Those are my early warning signs.

This is where the Regulation Rhythm™ comes alive in practice.

Help starts with me:
noticing my body
finding calm first
slowing my words
softening my voice
grounding myself before expecting anything from anyone else.

💯Because calm is contagious.
💯Safety is felt, not explained.
💯And regulation always travels through relationship.

Families don’t need another expert doing to them.
They need someone who can be with them, steady, regulated, human.

That’s not weakness.
That’s professional responsibility.
Body before behaviour.
Always.

The InnerMe Facebook Group has been refreshed!!

This is a space for parents and professionals supporting children with big emotions and baffling behaviours.

If you’re living with:
• meltdowns that seem to come out of nowhere
• behaviour that doesn’t respond to rewards or consequences
• exhaustion from trying everything
• a constant feeling of “I must be missing something”
You’re not.
And you’re not alone.💯

Behaviour starts in the body.
That’s what this group is built on.

Inside Behaviour Starts in the Body – The InnerMe Community, we slow things down and look underneath behaviour to understand:
• stress and overload
• safety and connection
• regulation before expectations
• why learning is hard when the body doesn’t feel safe

This group is for:
👉 parents supporting children with big emotions, sensory differences, school struggles or burnout
👉 professionals working with children whose behaviour feels confusing, intense or unpredictable

This is not a quick-fix group.
There are no charts, punishments or “just try this” answers.
Instead, you’ll find:
✔ simple regular prompts
✔ clear explanations in everyday language
✔ a calm, supportive community
✔ a body-first way of understanding behaviour that actually makes sense
If behaviour has been feeling heavy, relentless or confusing — this space is for you.
👉 Join us inside Behaviour Starts in the Body : The InnerMe Community
You don’t need to fix your child.

You just need a space that understands what their body is telling you.

People often ask why my clinical work is fully booked.

It’s because my practice is built on trust, safety, and relationships ...with children and with their families.

💯I take time to listen.
💯I work in partnership.
💯And I’m clear and honest about what support will genuinely help.

Families come to me when things are complex and trust has been hard to find.

They stay because they feel heard, respected, and supported.

That trust is why my diary stays full .....and it’s something I protect carefully.

When you’re overwhelmed, don’t speed up.
That’s the trap.

Slow your actions down on purpose.

Move slower.
Speak slower.
Breathe slower.

When your body slows, it sends a clear message to your brain:
“I’m safe. I’m not being chased. I don’t need to panic.”

Your brain listens to your body more than your thoughts.
So telling yourself to “calm down” rarely works.
But showing calm through your movements does.

Think of it like this (kid-simple):
Fast body = brain thinks uh-oh, danger!
Slow body = brain thinks ahhh, we’re okay.

This isn’t being lazy.
It’s not giving up.
It’s smart nervous system care.

Slow is how we steady.
Slow is how we reset.
Slow is how we get back in control.

Start with one thing today:
👉 slow your hands
👉 slow your steps
👉 slow your breath

Your brain will follow.

When I first qualified, I did it by the book.

✨️Structured programmes.
✨️Beautiful recording sheets.
✨️Clear goals.
✨️Neatly planned sessions.

Textbook therapy. ✔️

Then I started working with children who were: • non-speaking
• living with complex needs
• unpredictable in their responses
• overwhelmed by professionals
• unable—or unwilling—to “engage”
And the book stopped fitting.

🤷‍♀️These children don’t want Instagram-worthy activity set-ups.
🤷‍♀️They don’t sit at tables and follow plans.
🤷‍♀️They don’t trust adults just because we wear a badge.

They need relationship before intervention.
Safety before strategy.
Connection before content.
For them, the textbook became a guide ....not the rule.

These are the children I now support.💯

Because many services aren’t set up for this level of need.
The systems are too rigid.
The approaches are too tidy.
And the children are anything but.

That’s when I found my rhythm.
✔️Body first.
✔️Relationship led.
✔️Human.
And now, I’m sharing that rhythm with other professionals too.

Because this work is heavy.
And you shouldn’t have to figure it out alone.

Professional support: loading.💗
Follow along to learn more.

This is where regulation begins.

Not with strategies.
Not with rewards.
Not with words.
But with noticing the body.

Before children can explain feelings or manage behaviour, they need repeated, safe experiences of:
• noticing facial expression
• noticing body position and movement
• noticing comfort, tension, effort and ease
This is interoceptive awareness being built in real time.

Moments like this support:
✔ self-awareness
✔ emotional safety
✔ early regulation skills
✔ a stable sense of self

When we rush past these moments, we expect regulation without foundations.

If behaviour feels confusing, inconsistent or ‘out of the blue’, the body is usually speaking first.
Behaviour starts in the body.
Our job is to slow down enough to listen.

When a child only regulates with one person, we need to listen.

✨️That is not dependency.
✨️That is not poor boundaries.
✨️That is a nervous system telling us where safety lives.

Being a child’s safe person is not a soft role.
It is a heavy one.

💞You are the one they come to when their body feels too loud.
💞The one they cling to when the world tips too fast.
💞The one they need to touch, lean on, press into — again and again.

And what that brings is not just love or closeness.
It brings relief, anxiety and overwhelm all at the same time.

💯Relief, because they feel safe with you.
💯Anxiety, because you are always “on”.
💯Overwhelm, because their nervous system needs yours — often before you’ve had chance to steady your own.

When a child is in demand of one person, that is not manipulation.
🫶That is biology.
That is a nervous system saying, “You help me feel safe.

This is why professionals must listen to, trust, and respond to the trusted person.

Parents and carers are not “too close”.
They are attuned.
They notice the tiny changes ,the breath, the eyes, the tone, the shift in movement .... long before behaviour explodes.

They recognise dysregulation early because they live it daily.

They have more impact on their child than any system, strategy or process ever will.💯

If we ignore the safe person, we weaken the child’s safety.
If we dismiss them, we destabilise the nervous system we are trying to support.

Support does not start with charts, targets or plans.

It starts with helping their calm first.
Because when the safe person feels steadier,
the child does too.
